Amend: The Fight for America (2021)
Super Informative
Very informative documentary on the creation and impact of the 14th Amendment. It dives into the civil war and post reconstruction America and how the 14th was not accepted everywhere and rules created to get around the 14th by using "States Rights" as an excuse. The doc covers the plight against black America, women, and LGBTQ+, in regards to the use of the 14th to grant them rights.
BlacKkKlansman (2018)
Solid Movie by Spike
A Solid Movie based on a true story. Some people are saying this movie is race baiting, but I'd assume most people would notice that it's about race based on the title. It does provide a look into the past and a look at current situations that tie-in to the movie. The plot development is a little slow at first but the comedy aspect of it tends to by some time u til the main story picks up. The movie is based on a book written by the real Ron Stallworth.
Black Panther (2018)
Wanted to give a 9.5, but 10 works
So after reading many of the reviews on here I can simply describe some of them as "hate".
1) Politics, yes its political the main character is a king so to rule his kingdom politics has to be involved.
2) Its a Superhero movie you go into it KNOWING the good guy will survive in the end.
3) Yes the current climate in America takes a form in the movie, because the movie takes place present day and these are REAL problems that face many Americans.
4)This is Marvel's best origin story followed closely by Iron Man and Ant Man. Since we were introduced to Black Panther in Civil War we finally get to see his homeland and how the Black Panther is chosen.
5) I can't remember too many other Marvel films showing villain development the way this one does. We learn more about the villain in this movie (though briefly) we at least know the bad guy didn't just pop-up out of no where.
6) There was plenty of action though the movie does have some slow parts, but so do a lot of movies.
7) The comedic timing is great, not Deadpool level, but a little better than the other MCU movies.
