Atom User Reviews for Judas and the Black Messiah

A beautiful black brother movie

A must see film for what were going through today

this is a must watch movie! I will definitely be watching it again.

Daniel kaluuya is that dude !

This is a competently made movie but it really does feel like a propaganda film that is made to support modern BLM/POC organizations.

Incredible performances by the actors and a sad testament of how far we've come when it comes to race relations in this country.

Great movie

I beautiful movie! Perfect for what we’re going through today. The fact it’s based on a true story, makes it more sad and eye opening

Wish the film dealt more with the men involved and their vision but good story and one that needs to be seen.

Big recommendations for my fellow black brothers

This movie was powerful!

Though it’s early in the year, it doesn’t feel like a stretch to name it one of 2021’s best films.

Led by sensational performances from Daniel Kaluuya as Hampton and LaKeith Stanfield as William O'Neal, the FBI informant who infiltrated his inner circle, this is a scalding account of oppression and revolution, coercion and betrayal, rendered more shocking by the undiminished currency of its themes.

Judas is an explosion of pent-up plotting, as if the film industry itself would only have this one chance to make a film about the Panther movement and it all has to be told in one go. Hopefully, this is not to be the case. As this film rises up to an unthinkable conclusion, there is clearly so much more to tell, and, as always, to learn.
