Review by diretorio_k

I really enjoyed this movie. There were some small flaws here and there, especially with the directing and some of the acting (Jenna Malone, especially), and I agree that the trailer is very misleading, but I actually liked that, it brought some element of surprise. Janelle Monae was amazing in it and there were a few surprises that really caught me off guard. I rarely write reviews here, but I thought I had to, cause after seeing the rating for this movie, I decided at first not to watch it. Saw a lot of reviews saying it was bad and not even a horror movie. Well, I finally saw it and now I understand why there's a lot of angry and salty people here reviewing. Every time a movie depicts the horrors of slavery and racism, there's a lot of people that rush in just to say it was awful, or over the top, not true or boring. It's ok to not like the movie, but saying it wasn't even horror is just a lie. Every story about slavery is a horror story. If you see this movie and don't think that's true, maybe you are part of the problem.
