Alice was fine. It was a perfectly enjoyable film. It does not deserve its current 4.4 rating. The acting and cinematography was top notch, the dialogue was simplistic but the story was was entertaining and meaningful. Only mistake these folks made was putting a black face on the cover and-- 'boom!'-- minus three stars. Ignore these jive talkin' reviewers, man; Alice is all-right.
The 70s were characterized perfectly, the acting was great, it was an interesting storyline, and it felt like a movie made in the 70s. It all came together perfectly.
Honestly I have to say I'm shocked by how atrociously low this movie is being rated. The acting in the movie was really good and the story was very interesting. Truly don't see why this is being rated so poorly.
Keke her performance was phenomenal in this!
Definitely recommend watching it.
And for all the people reviewing this writing annoying things like "based on a true story where??" Maybe you should google things more before you post? A simple search would have led you to multiple articles on this. I'll help you out! Google: "What story is Alice 2022 based on?"
Google Mae Louise Walls Miller perhaps?
Anyway. Again: great movie, great acting, great story. Nothing else.

When I saw the movie poster, then went to see the flick, the first act of the movie did not match what the poster was telling me this was going to be. Then at some point the transaction between what this movie is and what the movie poster told me it is happens and I'm blown away.
If you've seen the village the first half of the movie is the village, but that second half, that's a Blaxploitation film! One of the best I've ever seen.
It starts out with something that seems farfetched (or a truth I don't wish to believe), then it gives a very real metaphor about revolution.
I want to point out that the movie itself states its inspired by something that actually happen, which only adds fuel to the fire.
I thought KeKe Plamer was enjoyable as Alice, but Rapper/Actor Common looked like he was made for his role as Frank.
I thought the format perfectly Mimicked a movie made in 1973 without pretending it was a movie made in 1973.
Really enjoyed myself here!

We've come along way in more ways than one. I would've love to see something a bit more original with this talented cast but not oh well. We saw this in Antebellum with Janelle Monae and by the way did a phenomenal job. Anyway if you looking for something to pass the time it's a decent movie . I'm just a retired guy that watches way too many movies .

- TriviaThe story is based on the very real history of black Americans still being enslaved even after the Emancipation Proclamation. The most prominent example of this, on which the movie is based, is the life of Mae Louise Walls Miller. She didn't get her freedom until 1961, when she ran away from the plantation and found a family that rescued her and her family. She and her family were unaware that things had changed, as they had no TV or other access to the outside world; they just assumed their situation was like that for all black people.
