Gripping, eye-opening but quite tedious and ridiculous

Rating: 6/10 (2 December 2018)

First, I think that the actors' performance is very good, especially Adam Driver as Flip. Besides, the film has some quite funny moments and on the other hand, some upsetting and moving moments, wich make a very good mixture. But sometimes, especially with Laura Harrier as Patrice, I found the film boring and also not at all realistic. So, from my point of view, the members of the KKK are ridiculous. Thereby, the film can't be taken seriously when the villains in the movie are very cliché. It looks like a comedy, not a realistic film, which wants to be convincing. Even if the cast is great, it needs to be more serious. Besides, the film has a surpising ending, which I think is interesting because the script is very smart. On a scale of 0 to 10, i give this film a six because even if there is a good cast and a good script, sometimes it's long and slow. I can recommend it because the storyline is good and creative, and also because Adam Driver is one of the lead characters. Fans of him must see his great performance ! And Finally, the soundtrack is compelling and corresponds to the film.
