Guess it works better as a microscope portrait of the 60s through four wondrous historical figures than an actual thought-provoking, kind of philosophical, theater-goes-to-cinema chamber piece. Still, what a cast this is and King directs their interactions with affection and sharpness. Better than 95% of Oscar-bait biopics out there.

A confident and elegant debut for Regina King. I don't know if it's the pandemic or mere happenstance, but there have been many play-to-films this year, and this one has felt the most conscious of its medium, the most interested in the empowerment of the camera rather than focused on getting the dialogue out as quickly as possible, so kudos to King. All four leads are wonderful, but the real soul of the piece seems to be Odom Jr. His performance sneaks up on you. Hope he wins the little gold man

A great directorial debut from Regina King. The screenplay is often fire, with the scenes at the hotel working quite a bit better than those outside. The camera work is solid with several inspired dashes thrown in to stray from the filmed-play aspect of the piece. The four leads are great but it is Kingsley Ben-Adir that is really something else.

Four men, two that I've never even heard of before, argues in a motel room for close to two hours. Not my kind of movie...

I got lost in this. The premise itself is interesting but it perfectly captured the essence of what a dialogue heavy film should be. The performances by the four are delectable--they deserve awards as an ensemble if those were given--and the flick accomplished a feat in which I forgot that I was even watching a movie at certain points because the interactions and words spoken were so organic. A nuanced look at different perspectives; everything else is great but that's the standout.

fun but slight. it is difficult to watch this knowing what happens to all four of these men, because the film never makes clear if we should be watching with such ironic foresight or if we're meant to be assumed ignorant. the most memorable part of it was my mom thinking it was based on a true story and I had to spend five minutes explaining what the word "fictional" means. the most courageous performance is Beau Bridges, who showed up for five minutes to say the N-word.

This film has a great script and outstanding direction. The cast all hit their roles out of the park. The film is fascinating and interesting. Overall I would highly recommend this film.

A middlebrow pageantry of black idols that briefly catches fire when Malcolm X tears into Sam Cooke for the superficiality of his songwriting. The rest is the dramatic equivalent of establishing shots. Everybody is dressed up (in nice suits) and ready to go but nothing much happens. Though it reminds one of the cultural richness of the civil rights movement.

The movie really elevated itself late with its treatment of Malcolm X, who turns from a frantic bore into a sacrificial general of the cause. I did not expect to be surprised by a movie like this...
