- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsAs far as I can tell based off the interviews, documentaries, and small amount of reading I’ve done this is the most accurate historical portrayal of an event I have ever seen. Absolutely worth the watch
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsA powerful film the title of which sums it up perfectly. Watched it with my family and we all cried, rest in peace comrade
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsi don't usually like biopics but I really like this movie. Very good job by Shaka King. Great performance from two main characters
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsWords can't describe how great this film is. Oscar-snubbed from being Best Picture. One of the greatest films of all-time.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsOne of the best films I have ever experienced. The acting is spectacular, the music is wonderful, and the directing is superb. The story of Fred Hampton is very important in history, and Shaka King told it the right way.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsWeirdly boring which, given the subject matter, is really strange.
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsIt needed more grit. This movie should have been radicalizing.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsThe best crime thriller since the Departed. And this one is all true which makes it a more unbelievable watch. kaluuya is so hard to understand half the time. His American accent is not very good and when he tries that, mixed with the tenor of the real Fred Hampton, you really need subtitles just for him. But, it's a super thrilling movie and the new director did it like a pro!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsBrilliant depiction of a brave man and the betrayal of brave people by the system that exploited and which still exploits and betrays good people to this day. I had to press pause for weeping time because only the hardest heart could fail to grieve. And afterward, I re-watched the first episode of Eyes On The Prize. This film reminded me that white people everywhere need to open their ears and eyes. Knowing history can enable us to change the history of the future by doing something now. We owe it to him, we owe it to them.
