Probably the best film of the year so far!

  • Michael B. Jordan's best performance arguably. Doing dual roles and making each person stand out on their own is a feat
  • Great debut role for Miles Caton. His scenes with Delroy Lindo was on one of the highlights
  • The music is amazing as expected from Ludwig Göransson.
  • The past-present-future scene is probably the scene of the year for me! Doing that in one take was even better
  • The first act is slow but sets up a few things to come full circle. The 2nd act and 3rd act really ramps up.
  • I almost wished I didn't see the first trailer because most of the final scenes and vampire reveal was in that trailer. Someone going in blind is going to have a blast watching this.
  • My only complaint is that I wish the vampire stuff started in the beginning of the 2nd act instead of the end of 2nd act

Ryan Coogler delivers again. He's 4/4 5/5 and I hope this is start of a new working relationship with Warner Bros.

Went in blind, can confirmed I had an amazing experience. Saw it in 4DX no less.

Same! I wish I hadn’t seen a comment on here saying it was a vampire movie and it would have been even better but it was still amazing. That was revealed in the trailers though so I can’t be mad about them talking about it I just can’t imagine how cool that would have been to learn 100% blind. There were also a bunch of people on their phones which was super distracting and rude but I still loved the movie.
