Lovely Jackson

Not a sentimental or emotional person, yet I cried 3 times. The story is a 10/10, pacing a 10/10 and the visuals are so well done and real 10/10. I will go as far as to say this is my new favourite movie and will be watching this again soon. The editing was top notch and the immersion is real. A way of entertaining yourself while educating yourself. This movie is hands down the best movie of all time. I can't stress enough the after effect it left on my after watching it and the timeline follows through super well. I'm not a fan of documentaries and thought this would be one. They acted out the exact events and made it into a drama movie. The movie has its laughs too. Thank you for this movien.

We sat transfixed in the dark theater on the edge of our seats the entire time. This deeply personal story carries you into the deepest recesses of the justice system and shines a spotlight on one man's journey over 39 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. There wasn't a dry eye in the theater.

The cinematography and storytelling are beautifully done. We talked for hours afterward about the film and still can't stop thinking about it.

This story of ricky jackson's life will renew your faith in the resilience and goodness of humanity and our ability to triumph over adversity.

You will not want to miss this incredibly film!!

This is a gripping story, shot and paced in a way that - even if you're familiar with the real-life events - you are on the edge of your seat the entire time. What elevates a remarkable story and filmmaking approach further: Ricky Jackson is an unequivocally amazing person. You will love him, cry for him, and want to fight for justice on his behalf.

Jackson is a powerful example of what a rise-above mentality looks like, and how "taking the higher road" benefits not only a person wronged - but also spreads a potentially endless positive ripple effect outwards. He consistently chooses to lean into the good (compassion, empathy, kindness, forgiveness and love) over the bad (anger, resentment, revenge) - and this choice enables him to live a joyful, loving, beautiful life despite every possible obstacle. Something we can all learn from.

As our very young country continues to grow and evolve, this is also a movie everyone involved in the shaping, maintaining and enforcing of our legal system should watch.

What an incredible story... I have found myself thinking about this one for days after seeing it. Very intense, and even had a number of twists and turns.

The production and fx really were a nice addition to the already incredible story.

Cannot believe this man spent 39 YEARS in prison for a CRIME HE DIDN'T COMMIT.

There are very few movies that will provoke genuine emotions from beginning to end. The cinematographer angles helped to intensify some of the most important moments in the film. This docudrama is infused with intense and light hearted scenes that will have you emotionally charged.
