Who Is Amos Otis?

This is not a movie but a filmed play. The courtroom scenes are ridiculous. There are literally 13 people at the trial of a man accused of killing the President. Not even any guards in the room.

Also, it should be noted that in the advertising of this film it has been stated "based on the Pulitzer Nominated play." That is where the truth gets fuzzy. According to Columbia University and the Pulitzer granting board only finalist are 'nominated', which this play was not. Look it up. All finalist since 1980 are listed. Thousands of dramas are entered every year. Just because your community theatre enters your work does not mean you were 'nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.'

So let's talk about truth!

This is one of those rare films that absolutely everyone should see. Gripping interesting and concise it paints a vivid picture of where we could be in the future. Just watch it.

Thinly veiled crap about assassinating President Trump. If this bilge was about killing Biden or Obama the bottom feeding msm media would be in hysterics. I can't believe that money and time for crap like this is being spent.

The writer, Director and actors should be ashamed of this movie. To give it some legitimacy, the reviews state that the films author/director won a Pulitzer Prize. As if that award has any credibility or value. It's become so politized as to have no meaning whatsoever. Obama case in point.

Taken today's "president", all those references to a Dictator-like actions, that led to the President's assassination, clearly describes the behavior of the mentally deficient person currently occupying the WH.

Is that the future of Presidents, to be assassinated by anyone who disagrees with their policies?

Don't waste your time and brain cells seeing this train wreck.

I just watched the film at the recommendation of a friend, and I liked it!

I felt the courtroom scenes played out realistically for the most part, with the possible exception of the prosecutor whose whiny outbursts and badgering of John Doe probably wouldn't have been tolerated by the judge. The public defender was particularly sympathetic, well-acted, and believable.

With a smidge of the "what if you could go back to kill Baby Hitler" moral argument, it is imaginative, enthralling, and--for those capable of it--thought-provoking. To that last point, I did also enjoy the sweet, sweet tears of a couple other reviewers here. Amusing!

Whether you are left or right, this movie is just brilliant. It is a high quality production but more importantly the two lead actors, Rico Reid and Josh Katawick, turn in strong, powerful performances.

It may or may not refer to the Trump years, on that you will have to draw your own conclusions.

Who is Amos Otis is both the title of the movie and the lingering question until the very end. Is Otis who he says he is and is he from where he claims to be? How that question is dealt with in the courtroom is the heart of the drama,

If you have a chance to see this production, then watch it. You won't regret it.
