The dialogue in this movie was beautifully written. The fact that each side of the police brutality argument had the opportunity to state its “case” was masterfully portrayed by the actors. Everyone should see this movie!! There should be college classes discussing and dissecting this masterpiece...Nate Parker is the 🐐 for this one!!
@@karanvirgill8285 that makes no sense. You’re telling me invading a police station and killing people and taking hostages that work in there is not terrorism?? Really??? Lmao you’re blinded my friend.
This movie is so deep! After I watched A Time To Kill and Trayvon Martin's trial, I wondered why the family is supposed to accept the outcome. If someone kills your child and gets off, how are you supposed to deal with it and why do you have to accept it?
This movie is so deep. To watch it hurts even more. My son was murdered November 26, 2016. He was I thought surrounded with friends, but learned later they were just strays. Four years later murder still unsolved. Hell, it went Cold Case within 10 months. I became his detective and his lawyer. To answer your question??? How do you react when people plot to murder your child? As hard as it is I had to forgive them first. Just this weekend you hear how they are having a good time at the Super Bowl, and but still my son is dead and his case is unsolved. This is the hardest thing a parent can endure. Don't get me wrong my mind sometimes say revenge, but then I can't forget the man I serve. I believe my heart has broken in a million pieces. I want justice and I want them to live and feel me and my family pain. Four people have been killed that could have been involved with my son's death, and my heart hurt for their parents. But my prayer is a conviction and exposed them all. I don't wish this on their parents. This is the worst pain ever. 😥 LOVE YOUR CHILDREN WITH ALL THEIR FAULTS, and never give up on them. I can say my son wasn't no saint but he was my son.❤
@@martinkorn2668 you just upset at good content I get it. You would cheer a movie about American soldiers invading a country for no reason or dropping a nuke and killing millions but when you see black people finally take action your upset lol
I honestly can't even believe this actually got made....some people in this country are going to go horse and lose their voice from yelling and protesting this films release lol
@brian ohara I'm surprised it got made because there is a lot racist people in power in this country and somehow they didn't get it shut down and I don't think it's dog piling I think it's social commentary on a real problem in policing in this country where black/brown people get treated differently than white people....there's no scenario in which a white man's young son would get shot running away during a traffic stop
One of the most powerful statement of the movie, " I did what I was trained to do!" This is more than just a movie. This is real life, and everyone has a role to play. Which part of the script are you given to live? 🙏🏿 for our Nation.
That's a lie. You should be careful with telling lies. Especially as a Christian man. Being miss informed is one thing, but passing it along is another.
This movie hit hard. I am a white male and a cop (21 years so far). I am also married to a half black / half Puerto Rican woman. We are in our mid 40's now. We grew up together as kids in a low income, somewhat "Urban" area in South Florida. We watched this movie together last night. Both sides had extremely compelling arguments in their so-called "trial". I have witnessed black men resist for absolutely no reason and I have seen white cops highly over react in certain situations. And yes, the statement, "I did what I was trained to do" is 100% accurate. Law Enforcement is brainwashed with the singular goal that We go home at the end of our shift". I've heard it a thousand times. The problem is, you as a citizen or suspect KNOW if you are gonna attack or not. I do not have that information. I have to be on the edge of my tippy toes to get that jump ahead of you IF things go bad. He was right when he said, "I was scared!" That is the truth my friends. Every single cop is scared. We are scared of the unknown and anyone who tells you differently is lying.
@@youmadbro7733 Thank you. I can't imagine anyone with more insight. What does that mean "we go home at the end of our shift"? From the outside looking in, I know the truth is far from what the News is telling. The News keeps pushing agendas and political propaganda. When I look at the numbers and the statistics I don't see more black people being killed by cops than white people, I see just the opposite. I've witnessed more black on black and black on white and black on blue racism in America than any other kind, however, it seems to always come down to the individuals and not a group or institution or department. Every time I attempt to generalize people, I find myself realizing that the problem is with individual people or a few individuals and not the systematic corruption of the institution. From what you tell us, the police are trained to follow a certain creed which makes sense to me. There are alot of bad people in our society and the police need to protect themselves wisely. From what I've witnessed, certain individual cops (usually ex-military/soldiers) have problems with not knowing when and when not to hesitate due to the fear and stress of not knowing. The News networks want us to believe that there is this systematic racism against black people throughout our law enforcement agencies but I have not seen any evidence of that. On the contrary I have seen alot of black criminals exploit the "race card" to gain an advantage over a police officer. George Floyd is a perfect example of a black junkie criminal who used every manipulation to attempt to deceive several police officers and it worked far beyond that. Floyd was able to deceive hundreds of thousands of of people, but I still find that all those individual people housed some sort of racial discrimination towards the police. When I spoke to other individuals, who I believed were not racist towards the police, they told me that they thought the police officers were just doing their jobs. That was after they watched ALL the videos surrounding the George Floyd arrest where Floyd claimed to be claustrophobic and couldn't breath while sitting in his own SUV and again after he kicked out of the back of the police cruiser attempting to resist being taken to jail. Meaning it still seems to me that the majority of the people are not racist and want to know the truth. We really need to hear more from people like you who have experience and far less from the News networks on this subject of police and racism in America.
@@youmadbro7733 of course your going to be scared, it is natural for humans to be afraid of the unknown. but that does not justify everything. becoming a cop should mean you know your life is on the line everyday, just as in the movie it states that you should be our gate keepers. the ones who are protecting us, not killing 14 year olds. your right- you never know what a person may pull out, but if you see in the footage- he did not shoot right when he pulled out the phone, he shot after he told him to stop recording. does that make sense? he knew it was just phone, as he had been told multiple times that it was. yet he still shot him. that isn't fair, now is it?

If you haven’t seen this movie, do so. If you have teenage children, especially boys, have them see it with you and discuss it afterwards. I did so with my son and it only solidified the “TALK” that I had with him about his behavior when confronted by the police. He understands a little bit more after seeing this movie.
Yes!! This is so crazy because I literally just had this conversation with my 18 year old Son whom recently received his 1st truck as an early graduation present(Class of 2021)!! I explained in great detail what NOT to do, how to be a "safe" driver and acted out a scenario of what COULD happen. While Instilling in him that sometimes just a simple traffic stop could escalate very quickly! We pray that the police just give us a ticket and we actually make it HOME safely but unfortunately some of us never do! I scared him but it was necessary. Now he understand that this is not a game!! Then I came across this Amazing movie! We watched it as a Family and had a very in depth conversation. Major props to Nate Parker and his team! My only qualm is there was very little promotion of this movie which is sad! What's even sadder is these are the same inequities that our parents, grandparents as well as ancestors faced and fought for to Change! Yet here it is, the year 2021! STILL fighting for equality and CHANGE!STILL stagnant; STILL settling for the scraps off of the table and STILL being passive aggressive with no real resolve. WE all bleed RED!! If we can united during a "Pandemic" just imagine how it would be if we all united to put an end to this long overdue race war! I will definitely share with everyone that I can.... This is a must see movie for all to watch! Our young Kings and Queens Matter!! Blessing to all..🙌🙌🏽
Gee I wonder why. It’s promoting ppl to kidnap and hold police hostage. What’s the difference between this and what those idiots did when they stormed the capitol, this is way worse. But hey it’s fellow black folk so let’s pretend it’s amazing and powerful.

We need to support this more than black panther. We showed out for a fictional movie like black panther let's give this movie more energy more dollars more love to the talent behind this masterpiece..
@brian ohara black people are MORE than well aware of that statistic, you guys love throwing it in our faces. But if you had any common sense then you’d know that it’s completely irrelevant because there are 5 times more white people than black. So taking how often each is killed, black people are still killed at a higher rate than white people. But even if that wasn’t the case, why the fuck would you be okay with that? So yeah, you thought you did something but you didn’t.
And hey yall I feel like I need to say this. Because it is true. It includes a bias racial profiling twist to it. I saw a video in 2020 of a white man charging a police officer with a knife in hand clearly ! A damn threat and the officer got stabbed didn't die but didn't shoot. Explain!!!!!! What????? Is that not a 100% threat of your life being taken????? Damn. Excuse me. I think not. Fucken corrupt assholes 😤

Where’s my movie about both my brothers dead from gang violence in Saint Louis before I got me and my mom out. Where’s my movie about my dad who I’ve never even meet. Where’s the conversation about that. How about we address that too while we’re talking about shit “long overdue”. That stupid fucking “why are we the only ones expected to not use violence” line or whatever it is pisses me right off. All they did where i’m from is tote guns and we wanna talk on some stupid shit

Sit back and imma tell yall my thoughts and experiences as well... Btw this is coming from a black man thats also a police officer. The movie was touching and all so realistic. From a racial stand point and with the police officers. 1st thing I noticed is when they used the black "captain" to go sit with the mother and beg her to make a statement. That should've been the mayor or chief of police not a captain. But thats how we are seen in law enforcement. We're only used to meet quotas. Hire a few blacks to not seem racists and promote 1 or 2 here and there for good measure. Use them for black relations. 2nd. With the Hispanic female officer that spoke up. When she did I shook my head and said baby you about to lose your job and probably be called an accomplice. Omg they tried to shut her up and basically threw that its us or them in her face. Smh they drill into minority officer's heads that our own ppl hate us and that our real family is law enforcement. But sad thing is alot of us are to stupid to see that we're not included we're tolerated. We're not an actual part of the group we're the little brother who holds the unplugged controller. 3. When the jury was gonna vote. The officer called the black kid bias when he never spoke a word. But before he walked off he tried to use that good ole boy mentality to appease the kid. Cause for years black ppl have tolerated the utmost disrespect but as long as you say some nice things all is forgiven. But as a black officer I just wanna say this is very real. White officers profile all the time. They make little slick racial jokes and comments to test minority officers. I could go on for days smh.
I just watched it. Amazing Very true. It hits home. I’m Hispanic and it happens to us as well. We stay quiet because most of us...Hispanics are illegal in this country. And can’t complaint to no one.
I feel you my brother hope all you guys stay strong. The movie brought tears to my eyes. Unbelievable how they made it so factual to how sad reality is no matter how hard you try😔
This movie was absolutely amazing. Well written, great acting, great dialogue from multiple points of view. The ending had me in literal tears. It is a must watch film
Yeah fax Mlk was an agent at first but then he started to realize all of the destruction he was causing in our community he was definitely paid off to integrate us with white folks as well just look at all we accomplished by ourselves we actually invented most of the things we use today.
Look, we didn't just watch it. We bought it. Anytime we see our friends we tell them they need to see it. This hits on so many things in so many different ways and perspectives in our society today. OUTSTANDING MOVIE! So if I ask someone if they have seen it and they say no.....I send them the trailer and tell them where they can find it. Nope yall are right " THEY " won't promote the truth but I sure will. Keep up the outstanding work SPIKE LEE!
I'm here after watching this movie... 10/10 MOVIE I PUT THAT ON MY DEAD HOMIES! this movie is one that everybody of colour needs to sit the family down and watch. Even if you aren't black but any minority group just take the time and watch this movie. If you're racist watch this movie because this movie revealed the truth in today's society. Best movie I've seen in a long long time.
Facts ^^ Watched this last night, and one of the best movies I have seen in such a long time! How this didn't reveive more publicity is rediculous! Covers such a strong topic, especially in the current world. Highly recomend anyoen watches this.
As a army war vet I never had fear of anything nor anyone, I truly seen things and done things I'm not proud of that would give most people nightmares, I truly came face with fear when I became a father, I love my children with all my heart, the biggest fear and when something happened to your child and you can't do anything about and to stop it, that will drive any loving father into becoming insane, I felt that pain of this movie
The sad part is, this masterpiece of a movie may just get ignored thanks to this damn virus, or because most people prefer to keep there eyes closed when it comes to subjects like this.
i would love for the center piece to be more accurate and portray who is really being shot which is convicted criminals on their way to or comming back from committin a crime rather than showing a fictitious straight a student in a non stolen vehicle and not commttin any driving infractions

Anyone trying to stand in the way of this Brotha, need to be put on blast for being an agent. His last film was sabotaged for no reason, and I wish he would have sued. The only platforms he should go on are the ones that are truly B1 and recognize the games our enemies play to sabotage us. Nate has never done anything to put down the community, he doesn't get on camera talking like a Candace Owens, Sheriff Clark or any of those self-hating bootlicks. He should know and feel how much that is appreciated with the success of this film and it's message.

Just finished watching it. You are absolutely correct.
spot on truth. I will be borrowing this comment
This movie is so deep! After I watched A Time To Kill and Trayvon Martin's trial, I wondered why the family is supposed to accept the outcome. If someone kills your child and gets off, how are you supposed to deal with it and why do you have to accept it?
This movie is so deep. To watch it hurts even more. My son was murdered November 26, 2016. He was I thought surrounded with friends, but learned later they were just strays. Four years later murder still unsolved. Hell, it went Cold Case within 10 months. I became his detective and his lawyer. To answer your question??? How do you react when people plot to murder your child? As hard as it is I had to forgive them first. Just this weekend you hear how they are having a good time at the Super Bowl, and but still my son is dead and his case is unsolved. This is the hardest thing a parent can endure. Don't get me wrong my mind sometimes say revenge, but then I can't forget the man I serve. I believe my heart has broken in a million pieces. I want justice and I want them to live and feel me and my family pain. Four people have been killed that could have been involved with my son's death, and my heart hurt for their parents. But my prayer is a conviction and exposed them all. I don't wish this on their parents. This is the worst pain ever. 😥 LOVE YOUR CHILDREN WITH ALL THEIR FAULTS, and never give up on them. I can say my son wasn't no saint but he was my son.❤

One of the most powerful statement of the movie, " I did what I was trained to do!" This is more than just a movie. This is real life, and everyone has a role to play. Which part of the script are you given to live? 🙏🏿 for our Nation.
That's a lie. You should be careful with telling lies. Especially as a Christian man. Being miss informed is one thing, but passing it along is another.
This movie hit hard. I am a white male and a cop (21 years so far). I am also married to a half black / half Puerto Rican woman. We are in our mid 40's now. We grew up together as kids in a low income, somewhat "Urban" area in South Florida. We watched this movie together last night.
Both sides had extremely compelling arguments in their so-called "trial". I have witnessed black men resist for absolutely no reason and I have seen white cops highly over react in certain situations.
And yes, the statement, "I did what I was trained to do" is 100% accurate. Law Enforcement is brainwashed with the singular goal that We go home at the end of our shift". I've heard it a thousand times.
The problem is, you as a citizen or suspect KNOW if you are gonna attack or not. I do not have that information. I have to be on the edge of my tippy toes to get that jump ahead of you IF things go bad. He was right when he said, "I was scared!" That is the truth my friends. Every single cop is scared. We are scared of the unknown and anyone who tells you differently is lying.
@@youmadbro7733 Thank you. I can't imagine anyone with more insight.
What does that mean "we go home at the end of our shift"?
From the outside looking in, I know the truth is far from what the News is telling. The News keeps pushing agendas and political propaganda. When I look at the numbers and the statistics I don't see more black people being killed by cops than white people, I see just the opposite. I've witnessed more black on black and black on white and black on blue racism in America than any other kind, however, it seems to always come down to the individuals and not a group or institution or department. Every time I attempt to generalize people, I find myself realizing that the problem is with individual people or a few individuals and not the systematic corruption of the institution. From what you tell us, the police are trained to follow a certain creed which makes sense to me. There are alot of bad people in our society and the police need to protect themselves wisely. From what I've witnessed, certain individual cops (usually ex-military/soldiers) have problems with not knowing when and when not to hesitate due to the fear and stress of not knowing. The News networks want us to believe that there is this systematic racism against black people throughout our law enforcement agencies but I have not seen any evidence of that. On the contrary I have seen alot of black criminals exploit the "race card" to gain an advantage over a police officer. George Floyd is a perfect example of a black junkie criminal who used every manipulation to attempt to deceive several police officers and it worked far beyond that. Floyd was able to deceive hundreds of thousands of of people, but I still find that all those individual people housed some sort of racial discrimination towards the police. When I spoke to other individuals, who I believed were not racist towards the police, they told me that they thought the police officers were just doing their jobs. That was after they watched ALL the videos surrounding the George Floyd arrest where Floyd claimed to be claustrophobic and couldn't breath while sitting in his own SUV and again after he kicked out of the back of the police cruiser attempting to resist being taken to jail. Meaning it still seems to me that the majority of the people are not racist and want to know the truth.
We really need to hear more from people like you who have experience and far less from the News networks on this subject of police and racism in America.
@@youmadbro7733 of course your going to be scared, it is natural for humans to be afraid of the unknown. but that does not justify everything. becoming a cop should mean you know your life is on the line everyday, just as in the movie it states that you should be our gate keepers. the ones who are protecting us, not killing 14 year olds. your right- you never know what a person may pull out, but if you see in the footage- he did not shoot right when he pulled out the phone, he shot after he told him to stop recording. does that make sense? he knew it was just phone, as he had been told multiple times that it was. yet he still shot him. that isn't fair, now is it?

Having said that, LEO’s have a fraction of a second to observe, orient, decide and act. The following needs to be taken into great consideration in literally less than a blink of an eye…
Subject Resistance Situational Factors.…. Is the subject verbally or physically resisting my lawful authority? Is the subject making attacking movements that are not likely to cause death or great bodily harm? Is the subject making attacking movements that are likely to cause death or great bodily harm?

This is an almost impossible task to get right 100% of the time. And yet, LEO’s are asked to do this multiple times throughout their daily tour of duty, for years and years on end.
If you haven’t seen this movie, do so. If you have teenage children, especially boys, have them see it with you and discuss it afterwards. I did so with my son and it only solidified the “TALK” that I had with him about his behavior when confronted by the police. He understands a little bit more after seeing this movie.
Yes!! This is so crazy because I literally just had this conversation with my 18 year old Son whom recently received his 1st truck as an early graduation present(Class of 2021)!! I explained in great detail what NOT to do, how to be a "safe" driver and acted out a scenario of what COULD happen. While Instilling in him that sometimes just a simple traffic stop could escalate very quickly! We pray that the police just give us a ticket and we actually make it HOME safely but unfortunately some of us never do! I scared him but it was necessary. Now he understand that this is not a game!! Then I came across this Amazing movie! We watched it as a Family and had a very in depth conversation. Major props to Nate Parker and his team! My only qualm is there was very little promotion of this movie which is sad! What's even sadder is these are the same inequities that our parents, grandparents as well as ancestors faced and fought for to Change! Yet here it is, the year 2021! STILL fighting for equality and CHANGE!STILL stagnant; STILL settling for the scraps off of the table and STILL being passive aggressive with no real resolve. WE all bleed RED!! If we can united during a "Pandemic" just imagine how it would be if we all united to put an end to this long overdue race war! I will definitely share with everyone that I can.... This is a must see movie for all to watch! Our young Kings and Queens Matter!! Blessing to all..🙌🙌🏽

@brian ohara black people are MORE than well aware of that statistic, you guys love throwing it in our faces. But if you had any common sense then you’d know that it’s completely irrelevant because there are 5 times more white people than black. So taking how often each is killed, black people are still killed at a higher rate than white people. But even if that wasn’t the case, why the fuck would you be okay with that? So yeah, you thought you did something but you didn’t.

Lmao
Sit back and imma tell yall my thoughts and experiences as well... Btw this is coming from a black man thats also a police officer.
The movie was touching and all so realistic. From a racial stand point and with the police officers. 1st thing I noticed is when they used the black "captain" to go sit with the mother and beg her to make a statement. That should've been the mayor or chief of police not a captain. But thats how we are seen in law enforcement. We're only used to meet quotas. Hire a few blacks to not seem racists and promote 1 or 2 here and there for good measure. Use them for black relations.
2nd. With the Hispanic female officer that spoke up. When she did I shook my head and said baby you about to lose your job and probably be called an accomplice. Omg they tried to shut her up and basically threw that its us or them in her face. Smh they drill into minority officer's heads that our own ppl hate us and that our real family is law enforcement. But sad thing is alot of us are to stupid to see that we're not included we're tolerated. We're not an actual part of the group we're the little brother who holds the unplugged controller.
3. When the jury was gonna vote. The officer called the black kid bias when he never spoke a word. But before he walked off he tried to use that good ole boy mentality to appease the kid. Cause for years black ppl have tolerated the utmost disrespect but as long as you say some nice things all is forgiven.
But as a black officer I just wanna say this is very real. White officers profile all the time. They make little slick racial jokes and comments to test minority officers. I could go on for days smh.
That's sad to know, man...😥
I love it!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!Right on Nate Parker!!!
Oh shit lemme share this everywhere cause they aren't gonna promote it.🔥🔥🔥

This will be like the one of the biggest movie in history
My kids will have to watch this twice a year 🤣🤣🤣🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿. Nate Parker best actor since Denzel
Brainwashing children, yay!
Finally bro!! We push back!!!
lol
@They Live oh shut up
We have been needing this.
Me and mines about to give this movie the same love we did Black Panther.
How did you see the movie
*I just got done watching this movie and WOW👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.....POWERFUL!! I’ve never seen a movie break it down from all sides like how Nate Parker & Spike Lee broke it down in ‘’American Skin’’....EVERYONE needs to watch this movie!! The conversation between the cops and the made jurors was so powerful....*
Don't remember the last time I was blown away by a trailer
Aw man , this movie looks good as shit , damn I can't wait
Why am I crying.... AGAIN! I'm tired of them killing us...
Wish was out tonight looking for a good film before I get blessed to see my 4th son be born n the afternoon tomorrow
Congratulations.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Congratulations!!! Be bless and safe
Congratulations Bro! Blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾
Just done watching this. Twisted end. Not the one you're expecting. If you're on the oppressed side, you're gonna be mad as hell. If you stand with the oppressors, you'll be rejoicing
Lmao what did you expect? They overran a building and took the cops hostage... think logically for a second big fella😬
Best movie out! Everyone needs to see it and think how actions leads to consequences on our life daily.. sometimes I just wish all people were colour blind so they see we are all equal.. skin colour, race, nothing matters.. we are all people! As a white women with a handsome black son who been through some sad situation based on colour.. So unfair..
loved the movie! Great storie! Love from portugal 🇵🇹
Your child aint black
I wonder what they're going to accuse him of this time
Right they will find something
They bringing up the race case he was acquitted for already.
@@aubreydean2246 Damn shame...
Talking black and sleeping white.
He wrote a safe ending so they wouldn’t go after him.
This move actually premiered in 2019 and just got picked up smh. What does that tell y'all.
That this some agenda pushing bullshit
Omg
@@PonyBoy1776 That actually proves that it's not "agenda pushing bullshit", because they filmed this movie before the biggest protest in history.
@@matthewlee7794 that protest was Engineered by George Soros and elites to have problem reaction solution & also to use as an excuse to have a rise in covid cases it’s propaganda
@@matthewlee7794 protest? More like people making excuses to riot and vandalize shit.
I felt this in my stomach seriously, I have gut cramps and my heart has forgotten how to beat. I have to watch this one.
I'm watching this drama in Africa right now and my stomach is in a hurricane...!
Why was Parker shot at the end and who in the freaking police department pull the trigger on him???? Very chilling yet sooo educative!!! Hope you all in the movie wins an OSCAR!👏👏👏🤗🤗 BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant! There were so many layers to this movie. I loved it, a roller coaster of emotions.
*Amerikkka ain’t ready for this movie*
You was right😢
Well no I'm not ready for a rapist. I guess I'm the old-fashioned type.
You should've seen the rating they had on Rotten Tomatoes. Hell yeah they asses ain't ready 😂😂
✊🏾👊🏾 I’m hype. A movie like this needed to be done
This is so powerful, I literally got goosebumps... Can't wait till it comes out

This movie made me cry all the way through. 100/10, everyone needs to watch this.
THIS is a movie that HAD to be made! All thanks to Brother Parker for making this movie. I can't wait to see it!
