      The speech of "Black Jesus" also made me feel immersed through the screen.

      Unexpectedly good looking. A story of Jesus and Judas in the Black Panther Party.

      The rhythm is tight, the plot is complete and rich, and the most exciting is the performance of the two black protagonists, especially Hampton, who symbolizes Jesus, and is full of personal charm.

      He has clear goals and a big-picture view. In his speeches, he...

      A movie that appeals to the current movement

      MG needs to listen to the voices of H people at the bottom of the society, but does it need to be a GM? There seems to be no theoretical J-level camp. There are many so-called stripping XJ-level people who call for improving social welfare, and many who are devoted to charity; social security is developed, as long as they are willing to work and abide by the law, they will not be sick. Medicine and learning have nothing to teach, and the old have nothing to support; the social...

      Just give them all to die.

      That era was really just playing like that, killing black people casually. After last year's Black Lives Matter incident, people can understand the situation of black people in the United States. I don't quite understand one thing. That American society used to be so racially oppressive. Then they will all be shot and killed. Isn't that just shooting yourself in the foot? If they are so incompatible, they will all be sent back to Africa, or they will all be killed. You still...

      some waste

      Judas and the Black Messiah is a decent historical film and could be better.

      The film cuts into a piece of history of the Black Panther Party from the conflicting character "Judas", as subtle as surgery. "Judas" is a believer and a traitor. The mining rate of this bonanza is at most 30%. The topsoil of Erwuzai will only be turbulent, which will suppress the layers of human nature, and it is very unusual to turn away from the struggle to break out of the...

      The modern revolutionary translation of religious fables has outstanding choreography concept, but unfortunately the execution effect is poor; through O'Neill's real historical images, it is not difficult to see that his acting skills are indeed sufficient for...

      Next door, Regina King can come to steal the teacher. You can see that Fred's love is determined in that scene, and the dialogue is concise and dramatic. How much room does it give the actors to play? When Deborah left, Fred said, "you want some coffee? ""sure" "how you take it?" The most critical dialogue is here, "black, and sweet", the two actors here and I was completely brought into the situation by this script, they acted intoxicated and immersed , I can see the heart is rippling. This...

    Evaluation action

    "Judas and the Black Messiah" is a relatively good work. The performance of Daniel Kaluuya in the film gives the audience a sense of shock. Although the script of the film had some problems, the changes in the film made up for the shortcomings of the script. However, the FBI in the film has too many scenes and takes up a lot of time, which makes the audience feel that this part is a bit redundant. Although the photography and editing...

    Movie quotes

    • Fred Hampton: Reform - it's just the masters teaching the slaves how to be better slaves.

    • Fred Hampton: Housing, justice, peace... Life, liberty, happiness. I mean, it's all right there in the Declaration of Independence. But when poor people demand it, it's a contradiction -- it's not Democracy, it's Socialism.

    • Deborah Johnson: [In bed] Uh, your feet's cold. Why your feet so cold? No, get 'em off of me!

      Fred Hampton: My feet cold, your feet cold.

      Deborah Johnson: No, unless you... They're like...

      Fred Hampton: But that's Socialism, man. Well, you gotta warm 'em up, though. How you think Mao did the Long March, huh? The Chinese would warm these feet left and right.

      Deborah Johnson: You saying I'm a Foot Capitalist? You really gonna' call me a Foot Capitalist, Chairman?
