Synopsis

Limited releases starting 10/5 and expanding Nationwide on 10/19 -- Starr Carter is constantly switching between two worlds: the poor, mostly black, neighborhood where she lives and the rich, mostly white, prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Now, facing pressures from all sides of the community, Starr must find her voice and stand up for what's right. THE HATE U GIVE is based on the critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller by Angie Thomas and stars Amandla Stenberg as Starr, with Regina Hall, Russell Hornsby, Issa Rae, KJ Apa, Algee Smith, Sabrina Carpenter, Common and Anthony Mackie.

Hands down the best movie of 2018 so far... I took my 17 year old son to see the movie. We had dialogue about the movie for a least the next few hours after leaving the theater. The movie spoke to the painful world that we live in, the reality is real and resonated throughout the movie. The movie was written and it most definitely sent the message that it was intended to send... America, please wake up...ALL LIVES MATTER!

This movie was everything that I hoped that it would be and more. It definitely did not disappoint! I plan on seeing it at least 2 more times in the theaters and buying the DVD when it comes out. I read the book and the movie was on point with a few twists. I encourage everyone to support it!

Even if The Hate U Give succumbs to cliché on occasion, it remains a surprisingly bold and thoughtful studio film about racism.

Shaping the rhetoric of black activism and black liberation into accessible and demographic-spanning prose is no easy task. It is work which must be undertaken with intelligence, care and, above all, experience. It is no surprise then that the adaptation of Angie Thomas’s debut young-adult novel, The Hate U Give, into a big-budget studio picture loses much of its import in translation.

On the strength of its authentic storytelling voice and galvanizing lead performance, The Hate U Give delivers a powerful message that all the rallying and rioting and impassioned pleas in the world won’t change anything if they fall upon deaf ears.
