re: Finally Got Around to Watching Sinners

I didn't get the hype around it either. I mean, I understand why it had to RECEIVE the hype, I just didn't actually see it in the product.

For the entire (bloated) 137 minute runtime I kept thinking how much I wish I was watching From Dusk Till Dawn instead.

I liked it a lot and thought it was pretty awesome at times.
Obviously it is overhyped and we all know why it was heaped on with awards (and I agree the reasons for that are stupid), but as a movie itself I thought it was really good. Outside of the irrelevant historical music sequence and the egregious Klan massacre scene at the end (which just felt out of place and took the movie down a notch IMO), it was cool for me.
And it has one of the best credits sequences ever (the 80s scene in the bar with a grown Sammie).
I get the hate for the movie based on the overhype, but to me it’s objectively a pretty fun movie if you can ignore all the other bullshite surrounding it.

Scatterbrained movie that could’ve been good if it ever decided what it wanted to be. Instead we got this stream of consciousness type thing that didn’t make any sense.

Correct. Not exactly my genre of movie but I did hear good things.

objectively
I thought it was great
The good:
The music was phenomenal
Special effects were next level
Preacher Boy was a discovery
MBJ was fantastic
Delroy absolutely delivered. . .underrated actor who just lunchpails it every.damn.time
Atmosphere was pitch perfect
The fricking music was fricking amazing
Lars Ulrich and Buddy guy at the end was a Chef's Kiss
The bad:
Dialog was cringey at times, but not extremely so
Unnecessary Klan bullshite at the end was a bit cringe
Was it a knock off of From Dusk to Dawn? Sure. But it was a well directed and pout together knockoff.
9/10 film

As I said earlier in the thread, it had some decent moments. However, I saw it after the film had released and after all the hype and hoopla surrounding it had catapulted it into the Oscars. I was not as impressed as I thought I would be. However, I will always love Jack O'Connell's rendition of The Rocky Road to Dublin:

It's a condescending love fest entirely based around the race of the director and actors instead of the quality of the product.
It's actually kind of incredible that I can't think of even one.

Maybe that describes it for me. I just never got into or cared what the hell was supposed to be happening. But I'm not a huge vampire or modern horror fan, so I figured it just wasn't for me.
Didn't hate it, but it didn't really make any impression on me.

The antagonist being the vampires was razor thin and a waste of O’Connell vs Jordan which could’ve been good.

The vampires just showed up in the last 30 minutes. There was no build up. They just appeared and the magical black woman said ,"They's Haints, Smoke." and that was it. This movie was so stupid. As I said, the Lost Boys had more character development.

Coogler wanted to portray everyone as the enemy but unfortunately in a movie you need to pick somebody.

That's as big of an overreaction as the 16 Oscar nominations.
It was fine, but severely overrated.

Yes it was neither a B-movie, nor cheesy

I am as right wing and “roll my eyes at cries of racism” that you can find but I enjoyed it.
It should have been a horror movie that made a bunch of money and won every alternative horror award ever but never sniffed an Oscar.

Steve McQueen and Antoine Fuqua make some good movies that don’t involve race.
Jordan Peele has definitely touched on race but I didn’t feel beat over the head with it. That being said he’s 50/50 on good movies.

Was it Denzel for Training Day that commented about how he didn't deserve the award and knows why he won?
