Monster | Official Trailer | Netflix
/ netflix
A talented teen implicated in a robbery-turned-murder fights for his innocence and integrity against a criminal justice system that’s already judged him. - Zábava
I know this may be off-topic but he looks like Miles Morales if they were to make a live action I think he’d be the perfect actor
yeah! he looks like the video game version!
yesss
That is true
nice observation
Pretty sure that is him. Play the second game for the ps5.
The soundtrack is absolutely perfect.
That's Jacob Banks- Devil that I know
i came looking for this specific comment, love the song and was tryna find it
Agreed
@@kelvinujeh8752 Thank you! This is what I came looking for.
@@musicbox3969 don't stop there listen to his new EP and past LPs.
“Should one moment define my life?” I’ve asked myself the same thing.
It's all up to you.... you'll pick the moment (momentum)
You can define yours. Unfortunately, someone else will define your life in their own narrative.
it's not the moment but the amount of value we give to it. we're troubled by memory, not life.
Same.
One moment can definitely change your life, it doesn’t have to define it. God is able to renew, remake, and restore...through Jesus Christ❤️
Kelvin Harrison is finally getting the recognition and roles he deserves. He is such a talent.
Everyone who’s asking, the song is Jacob Banks - The Devil That I Know
Thank you good sir
Wow I thought that was John Legend's voice
Devil That I Know*, just in case it wont show up
Thanks man, i was about to ask but you were quick
Thanks My dude wanna Look the Movie tonight and the Song alone gives me Goosebumps
My old english teacher must be so hyped right now
I remember writing papers about the use of foreshadowing, context, classism, prejudice.
tell me why gorgeous
Same we read the book
Omg yes as a student we would ask to watch movie and final got one
Lolololol this comment is so understandable I swear old English teachers gone lose it if they make another Great Gatsby movie
Shit, I remember reading this book in grade school. This story is gonna hit different in 2021.
I read it too along with "Black Girl Lost" definitely needed a movie for this one.
I’m reading it now for my middle school class and I just happened to search Netflix and found this
You too! 8th grade.
@@LostKin2 I was just looking for a read-aloud for this book so I could do my work, but I ended up finding a whole movie. I guess I just found a way to pass my test.
@@joelacquah2204 same😂
I remember reading this book in middle school and I was floored. I remember it sucked me in and I didn't really read for enjoyment back then but because I had to for school. This book really captivated me and I couldn't put it down back then. It was easily the best book I had ever read. I can only imagine how dope this movie will be.
I’m reading it in middle school right now
Literally same I’m reading in middle school right now and I have to write an essay on it (That I sadly… did not prepare for).
I’m gonna read it for a book report lol
@@eybrowflex4468 enjoy
same this and tears of a tiger
don’t think my heart is ready for this
ok? this trailer alone is hurtful
I hear you, I have to mentally prepare myself for these movies
Every black young man must marry a beautiful blonde girl to have children who are white, have blond hair, and live without racism👍
YOU CAN DO THIS!
@@younesten5106 that's not true.. I as a White woman have experienced racism as well when I lived overseas or on holidays. been spit in my face and refused service, been told to leave and go back to my own country and so on.
Is that A$AP Rocky?!? Yeah, I’m definitely watching this...
And Q.B finest Nasty nas,I forgot to add David Washington.
I didn’t see Nas, where is he at?
@@roderickuzumaki6002 1:38 boppin his head
@@roderickuzumaki6002 Nas part starts from 1.17 till 1.38 time but you will see him at 1.20 in the prison scene.
This movie is old it was shot in 2016 released in 2018 at Sundance festival and FINALLY being released to the public. A 5 year wait.
Despite the sad story, this is one of the most beautifully shot movies i've ever seen, the colors, the music, the script everything is so beautiful
"Should one moment define my life?"
Sadly...that's how life often defines people....by a single moment. And often a bad one.
💯💯💯
People make life and we make life harder for others. People like to blame God for everything, even cancer. Especially when a life saving drug is not on da market because companies haven't found a way 2 dilute it and market it. Its like dat old proverb, a lion refuses to be king because he's afraid of not ruling well and it's too much responsibility and da little fox agrees because he gets to play his games on everyone in da kingdom
I’m sobbing because when I was a kid I stayed up all night reading this. I couldn’t stop turning the pages. I was stuck. All the joy and sorrow that were sewn together that night hit me when I hit play. Black boys deserve more, I was gifted more in the escape of storytelling but so many boys like me never got the chance. Nearly 20 years later, so many boys lost later, so many marches later and this story still rings loud.
Thank you Walter, Thank you so much.
why Netflix went and did this, i remember reading this book as a middle schooler and feeling my chest close up.
Profiting off of others' traumas. That's all
Likewise
in the end does he get out of jail
@@brenbeauty Yes, he does. The book is how he tries to define himself in the midst of the trial and how others perceive him.
same
This trailer actually made me cry. I can't even imagine how moving this film will be
Chill it’s not that crazy lmao
@@deznutz352 people like you shouldn’t watch movies like this. It carries a big message, and what’s wrong today.
@@brownboyjiujitsu2492 yea the message is get jobs and move out of Nycha Lmaoo
I know the community is tired, so am I. But to be fair, this is a story that should’ve been told a LONG time ago, this movie is long overdue. I remember reading this like 3 times in less than a week I loved the book so much, I’ve been waiting for it to be turned into a movie for years!!
Sometimes forgiving ourselves could be the hardest thing to do even after suffering enough for the mishap. This show should be a must watch for those
Yes
I remember reading this book in the 6th grade. Might have to read it again. I'm surprised it took so long for it to be adapted to film.
Mee too
It's been shelved for awhile. They probably went back to update it.
waves, luce, monster...will they ever let kelvin play a high schooler who ISN'T miserable 😅
don't forget "all the bright places".
My mans is always going to jail or going through something...
This film has been on the shelf for so long...and I love the book so much! Glad this is finally being released! ❤️
Man I've been waiting for this to become a movie since the first time I read the book monster in Middle School
Same here !!!
I need a Forged by Fire movie now. I literally grew up reading Walter Dean Myers and Sharon Draper books
Mee too
Oh shit, this is about the book? 😲
I knew I remembered the book 💖
It's very simple, really. I saw Kelvin Harrison Jr. in the thumbnail, so I clicked. This looks awesome, and did you SEE him in Waves? The man is gifted 😍
Kelvin Harrison, Jr. ALWAYS understands his assignment. Patiently waiting for him to get the acknowledgment he deserves.
i was sold once i saw LUCE. Dude is the truth, but unheralded.
@@larryburks592 SAME! Luce was a great project for him to show how dynamic he really is. Waves, another great one. And he was great in The High Note.
@@thecoreysams Ill have to check out High Note. he is by far, one of the more talented actors in the industry.
Dropped a tear before it even ended... this is our struggle and has been as black men tryna find our way. I can relate 100 percent. Man, blessings to anyone still here searching for happiness peace and tranquility. 🤲🏽💎🤲🏽
✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
This is not our only story. They want this to be our only victim telling story. Get out of the matrix please.
YES! I remember reading this book in high school. I’m ready.
“No matter how dark the moment, love, and hope are always possible”
- George Chakiris
I know some people will watch this and think it's a story about the characters life...but,this is life.
This movie is the best I've ever seen.
I like the processing, the pictures, the music, the plot, the actors and overall I like the movie
Thank you for learning this film. ❤️
Holy shit this looks amazing!
i said the exact same thing after i closed my mouth!! then I googled steve harmon.
No
@@empirezz2728 ok
@@DangeistYT ok

Asap Rocky and Nas 🔥🔥🔥
Jennifer Hudson too wow
For anyone wondering what the soundtrack is , the song is called “ Devil that I know “ by Jacob Banks

Thank you so much!

Yeah ASAP ROCKY💯🔥🔥
Yep
Ah man I read the book this is based on in middle school. I can’t believe it’s getting a movie finally. It should be interesting because the book is written in the perspective of the main character, who choose to write it in the same format as a script. It was really creative, and different, and interesting, I hope the movie retains that same creativity.
I just finished it today and I find out it’s being turned into a movie the same day is mind blowing to me
@@alexandriavelarde1332 Sweet! 💕☀️
yes i hope so too ! i recently read the book for the first time as a college student . i wish i had found it earlier
They both are a pulsating toxic pile of anti white racist garbage. Pick your side of the race war.
who is the book by?
Kelvin Harrison one of the BEST Actors out here. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Damn this has a lot of good actors! ASAP Rocky, Denzels son John, and Nas as his cell mate! Looking forward to seeing this!!
and jennifer hudson!!!!
and Jeffrey wright and jharrel jerome
It’s a movie not a rap video worst cast I’ve heard hahaha
"Should one moment define my life?":
If you killed someone? Yes.
If you killed someone in self-defense of your own life? No.
Great book. Walter Dean Myers is one of my favorites.
Looks like a great cast, I’m excited for this
I love watching him in movies I loved “Waves”and “Luce” Kelvin Harrison is a great actor
He was sooo good in Luce so I know this is gonna be good!
This movie just hit me so hard. I think the trailer it’s self with the music and plot telling ability really shows how great the movie is. Honestly a top 5 on my favorite movie list
I prefer the book
Thanks I'm about to look at it
The only person who should play Miles Morales in the live action film and after seeing this movie I definitely think he has the acting ability to
I read this book when I was in school and loved it. So ready to see this
this gonna be good 😳

Finished watching and this is a really great movie totally recommend!!! 💯
This made me tear up and it's only a trailer.
Definitely have my hopes up high for this one. 🙏
"Should one moment define my life?" Really hits hard, I've seen so many people do good things but when they did 1 bad thing, people judged them.
Whoa I’ll be watching this movie for sure!!✔️
Trailer had me crying, this was well put-together and I hope the movie is to.
Jeffrey Wright is a Brilliant actor! This is going to be so good!
Kelvin Harrison Jr. is amazing.
The song is 'Devil that I know' by Jacob Banks :)
Yep
The cast is stellar, but I can't watch anymore Black trauma movies. There is more to being Black than pain and suffering! Contrary to popular belief, we experience joy, love and laugh in spite of the BS laid at our feet. It would be nice to get some representation of that, but people seem to get off on the pain instead.
i can understand what you mean. Have you seen 'Sylvie's Love'? That might be a good movie to watch to see Black love and joy.
We should look back how in black culture with the type of music that help made legends off of one culture . The type of music is rock but no one talks about that part in black culture
Its from a great book Walter Dean is a amazing. Writer
Aahall98 My thoughts exactly. An interesting movie but i'm done with black trauma movies.
ahall98 THANK YOU PREACH
I love the last line of the trailer „should one moment define my life?“ - wonderful message especially in times of cancel culture!
Such a great book I remember reading in middle school . Cant wait to see this depiction of the pages .
This is so much emotional
I have to see this movie right now!
this actor from Luce is going to do amazing in this film I CAN JUST TELL!! can't wait to watch this film!!
I am always crying...thank you for more content that entertains as well as raises awareness, no matter how painful it is to watch sometimes.
The guy who plays Cruz also plays korey wise in when they see us which is a similar theme to this movie
This is based off of an amazing book. I’ve read it and it challenges the idea of perception and how everything is not what it seems. The story never gives you a clear answer on whether or not he was involved and it is up to the reader to make the decision. I’m really excited because I absolutely loved the book.
Would you kindly state the name of this book? Thank you in advance.
Loving that Jacob Banks is starting to feature in series/movies as a background track😍
This was my favorite book in high school, from my favorite author! Awesome.
man this hits too close to home. I have been to prison and I am sitting here with tears in my eyes as this experience was mine..... never again
Why don't we have any black stories that have a happy ending. Here recently it's all black trauma.
Yeah, every time it must be sad and painful. I'm tired of this
We have tons of stories like that but they don't make an impact.
@Bzake ok but why do have to be reminded of it constantly why can’t we ever get happy black lead movies
@Bzake so we should be satisfied with that one movie??
@@jayleensmith1572 because drama sells no one wants to see something go perfectly without conflict. Plus art portrays the times and times aren’t good
As a black parent it’s important to talk to your child about the importance of the company they keep. We are the average of the 5 closest people in our circle. Great movie it loaned itself to a conversation with my children.
I just finished watching with my wife and mom. When my sons come of age, they will definitely be watching this movie as a teachable moment, a life lesson!
I think that it's so cool that you said ... a teachable moment.
New talent, this is what I like to see. I've never seen him in anything before but he's killing it here. And as usual always great to see Jeffrey Wright
Kelvin Harrison, Jr. was in “Monsters and Men”, “Waves”, “Luce”, and “It Comes At Night”. He's also on “Godfather of Harlem”. He has a solid resume for only being 26 years old.
@@jinakaye cool, never seen any of those. I guess rather than new talent I should say it's good to see him in a leading role on a large platform. It's usually the same black actors being recycled
@@gemelwalters2942 Fr.
Go watch Waves immediately
@@jamesmiley6146 Waves is so good.
I already love it✨
This was a book I read this when I was growing up. Great book.
Oh goodness I'm beyond excited!! I LOVED this book and now it's a MOVIE and with a great cast yesssss thank you!!!!
Some big names in this jawn... Great to see Nas back on the silver screen!
This looks upbeat! lol
Welcome to America for some of your brother and sisters
It doesn't look like anything to me
@@ununbeliebt shoutout Westworld
@@ununbeliebt then I guess you’re looking in a mirror. Nothing usually recognizes “nothing”
You sound ignorant. Wait, you are ignorant.
Wow, haven't seen the movie but can't get over watching this trailer over and over, and that song, damn I loved it
Good movie with an incredibly strong message, recommended!
The movie was great overall from all characters but there’s so much more that could’ve been explored in terms of relationships, interactions, character development, character’s actions, etc.
Almost felt like there had to have been deleted scenes cuz some parts of the movie move so fast.
Also they could’ve explored some characters more, such as the quiet dude associated with King, King’s past, King’s life, Harmon’s relationships, more of these character backgrounds, etc.
Great movie overall though!
This. Is how you make a trailer. It tells a story and I already cried
Good film👌🏾 I was moved. Great cast too.
Jennifer Hudson? Now I'm really excited to see this. Such a queen 👑🧡
This gave me chills and broke my heart.
Great 👍movie. I was on the edge of my seat 💺during the ending. Be very careful who you pick as your friends. Too many of our young people get caught up in those streets
Oh man, I remember seeing a play of it and loving it so much. Can't wait to see it come to film.
Wow, there's a great story behind the great movie!! 😍
As an ELA teacher, I'm excited. Hopefully, it's as amazing as Walter Dean Myers' novel of the same name.
Song: Jacob Banks- Devil That I Know
Thankyou :)

rocky love playin this role
very "dope "nostalgic
I remember reading this in middle school! About time they make it into a film!
He looks like the perfect live action Miles Morales!
This kooks AMAZING
This was such a gorgeously done film
Got this book from the book fair and it changed me 🙏🏽
Is this based on a true story?? It looked quite relatable to artists until the crime drama part, not that it makes it look bad mind it still looks good, just a weird mesh in my opinion
It's based off a book where a boy who wants to be a director narrates his trial via movie script.
@@ashtinwalker6102 Author? Thank you.

@@matthewjames206 lol.. 10 years for virtually nothing? while being threatend into it? did you watch the movie?
Happens in USA & maybe third world countries.
Any time I listen to Jacob Banks, which is often, I always imagine films “built around his songs” and I hope this film does justice to “Devil That I know”.
His voice is the truth!
Yep
Amazing series! Loved watching it!
The guy who says "he's a monster" always plays jerks
