All Day and a Night

This is one of the finest black movie to see..The role of young black boy is super awesome..he played it like real...the whole movie keep me going..

I see a lot of low ratings and they're probably coming from millenials who aren't familiar with this kind of movie. You see, hood movies haven't changed much in the last 30 years or so (and as a big movie fan I respect that), probably because the hood hasn't changed much either. This movie could've easily be made in 1997 just like One eight seven could've been made in 2020... While for example, teenage movies in the 90s were about this kid who lost his dog or built a treehouse with his friends; and nowadays teenage movies are about teenagers collecting Instagram likes or being recruited by the government and transformed into cyborgs. So if you liked hood movies back in the 90s or 2000s, you will like this one too, if not then go find yourself some nice kid-becomes-a-cyborg movie

Love boyz n the hood,menace II society,south central,juice to name but a few.This is by no means on that level,however in the last 15 years this is bloody close.definitely worth a watch.8 out of 10

"All Day and a Night" is an unflinching portrait of cycles of violence and systemic problems that plague urban communities, with the calling card of a very strong central performance from Ashton Sanders. Gritty realism and heartfelt exploration of a single man in his quest to fight through the baggage that fate would have him carry make both poignant and thought-provoking moments. However, this often straddled narrative device between past and present makes it feel disjointed, which bodes well neither for the flow nor the emotional impact. Though well-acted, the supporting characters feel underdeveloped, and some of the story arcs feel underbaked. "All Day and a Night" is still an emotionally moving drama and covers urgent social issues, even if its execution is far from perfect.

I'm a Huge Ashton Sanders fan so I really wanted to like this movie but the writing just didn't do it for me. Great cinematography with beautiful colors and textures in the film but the script and storyline was very dry. I feel like this movie was a waste of the actors talents.

The movie had no soul... maybe the writers should do some more research on "the hood"
