If Hallmark decided to make war movies
ChloeDec 21, 2024It’s an important story to tell and Tyler Perry tries his best, Kerry Washington too and it should be great. But it’s not. Between the cliché ridden script and the sometimes corny dialogue, the monotonous editing—I don’t know what holds it back the most. Now this isn’t a…
Happypumpkin18Dec 26, 2024Two things can be true at once about this movie. The Six Triple Eight is a fascinating and uplifting true story that I wish I had known about prior to this movie. Also, I wish it had been directed by someone other than Tyler Perry. Putting it mildly, he's an awful director.…

I love the story and am so happy that these women are getting their due here, but it’s unfortunately giving TV movie to the max.

Eddie @ The CottageDec 26, 2024Sorting through 17 million pieces of hard-to-decipher mail sounds like my own private nightmare. These women deserve all the recognition and praise.

They delivered 17 million pieces of mail during a war in less than 90 days, but my Amazon package is still delayed. Do better Jeff Bezos.
Rated LV lovedThe Six Triple EightI have no words other than black women are truly amazing. This is history!!. What a movie and what a production. I literally cried at the strength of these women. Black women are strong and undefeated. No one compares. Tyler Perry did an amazing job with this.

i have never cried so much for a movie. This movie truly encapsulates the struggles of black women during the war! I'm pleased that there were no white saviors and the lovely ladies did it all by themselves, like they did during their service!

It’s the kind of movie that could be charitably described as “educational”, though probably not as much as the magazine article that serves as its source material. At least we know Perry is true to history in one major way: today, as was the case back then, these women deserve better.

From beginning to end, The Six Triple Eight never trusts its audience to actually engage with the material beyond its inspiring surface, evidenced by a lengthy coda featuring title cards that literally restate the film’s plot over archival footage of the 6888th Battalion. Unsung heroes deserve better.

Grading on the Tyler Perry curve, though, “The Six Triple Eight” respects its noteworthy topic — and its audience — as much as it possibly could.
