Movie Info & Cast

Synopsis

This stylish, outrageous, and incredible true story comes to the big screen, courtesy of director Spike Lee. Picture a time of social upheaval, when the struggle for civil rights and social equality is alive and well. No, not now – the 1970s! When rookie Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) joins the Colorado Springs police department, he’s the first African-American detective on their force – and he’s got big plans. Namely, he’s going to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan by posing as a white supremacist himself. Which is fine when he’s just on the phone, but he recruits a more seasoned, and whiter, colleague by the name of Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver) to be the face of his undercover operation and gain in-person insight into the group’s plans. Stallworth’s crusade may be just another day on the job to Zimmerman, but together they work to expose the hate group as it’s trying to go mainstream. Oh, and did we mention Topher Grace plays Grand Wizard David Duke?

1 or Spike’s absolute best! The parallels to today are amazingly scary. A true wake up call for those blindly falling Trump & some great backstory on Trump’s boy David Duke. Wake up white america!

A good blend of historical facts on this nations tragic past and present race relations problem.

If we are being asked to regard BlacKkKlansman as more than a movie, this may be another way of admitting that, on some fundamental level, it falls down as anything but revue sketch agitprop.

Veering from blaxploitation spoof to undercover thriller and ending with a no-punches-pulled real-life coda, it’s riotous fun one minute, savagely biting the next.

A perfectly decent comedy that will be accessible enough for a wide mainstream audience.
