Thoughtful entertainment

Rating: 7/10 (31 December 2019)

A very enjoyable watch. Music, clothes and culture seems accurate and sends me back to the 70s and the acting is superb. I think Washington and Driver are great in this movie and I also enjoyed the performances of Vikings favourite Pääkönen and Eggold in particular.
Although the subject matter is important I don't really find myself getting all that much emotionally involved. I suspect that might have to do with me being a European viewer and the issue at hand here is largely a question of discrimination in the US, although there is certainly a case to be made that these issues are hot topics in Europe as well.
I think the film was fun to watch while still being serious and drawing important parallells to society today. Well worth watching.
