Bodied

The movie was CRAZY. Loved it. The lyrics were insaneeeeeeee.

It took me a few minutes to understand what was happening but it's not exactly what you think it is. It's remarkably pure...that we can access whatever part of ourselves we didn't even think we had...but always had a hint (of greatness) of. What a movie.

So many didn't get it. It's a more-than-decent ode to battle rap, but also a scathing attack on a world that gets off on getting offended by everything. A truly admirable effort by little-known actors in a low-budget film.

Extremely realistic view on racism and being "politically correct". Amazing against all odds journey to what You desire and development story of the main character. Very real and true to nowadays values of the society and how we are lost when it comes to racism and harassment on many levels. A must watch !

I didn't go into this film with much expectations. It is good though. Well directed, shot and acted for the most part on what I would imagine wasn't much of a budget. This isn't a another 8 mile. 8 Mile was about the characters, this Is a movie about the battle rap scene, so it falls into a couple of traps such as awkward cameos from famous battle rap faces that were clearly thrown in for the sake of it so that battle rap fans could go "oh look there's *insert*". The plot is not the strongest but it does the job. The comedy & jokes are good, I laughed out loud a couple of times in a good way. It can be cringey and cheesey though, especially the last 30 mins. And unfortunately this film tries to go for "the deeper message" about cultural appropriation but keeps going for it then abandoning it and then coming back again. Some of the leftie angles this film went for I honestly thought were tongue in cheek until the movie progressed and I realised they weren't. All this said it was worth a watch, especially if you are a battle rap fan, it does show how this day and age this is more of a sport
