    Hmm. I think first half. Lots of creativity with the “lore”.

    Like the invite me in scenes + music being the portal whatever the f***. Cool s***

    Then it just becomes a Hollywood beat ‘em up and I’m out.

    Thanks for explaining cause I thought second half besides the fights themselves was the point .

    They could have done some weirder elements in second half to differentiate from other vampire movies but it worked fine for me

    Do you feel Obaa addresses blackness well even if from lens of white man ? That’s the main conflict I’ve heard but rather watch for myself

    I’m saying when discussing art and it gets to ad hominems of proving blackness I am surprised this movie isn’t your favorite

    Not in regards to the situation itself

    Of course OBAA doesn’t. No non-black director can ever accomplish that even tho I do respect him allowing Teyanna and JP to provide insight to the character. And Benecio when it came to the Mexican segments. But my assessments of movies isn’t based on “which is the most black”.

    Sinners first half is amazing where it tackles all of that. The Delroy backstory. The music. All that is great.

    When the vampire s*** happens is when it gets a little meh. There was a scene where they show 6 ppl left in the juke joint, where they all had to eat garlic to prove they are human. Then all sudden when the vampires rush in a bunch of random humans pop up outta nowhere and get instantly killed. Where tf them random niggas come from? It’s s*** like that that shouldn’t be left on the cutting floor of a filmmaker at Ryan’s status.

    The reason I was saying “ after all this “ is because Obaa by many black people was accused on being anti black . I haven’t seen it but i understand why you disagree with them .

    I have to think if I recall the “ random humans “ . I think most of second half good too . I think the vampires part is the point of the movie so I’m confused on people who don’t get it

    Nah trust me I went into knowing it was a vampire movie, theme wise all of it is great. It’s just more so the story where it becomes meh for me.

    The Asian lady yelling for them to come in and instantly gets herself killed pissed me off and was stupid as f***. Especially since the sun came out like 20 min later, b**** could’ve waited.

    And I don’t listen to those Twitter people, same black people tried s***ting on Sinners saying “only the white woman was respected and bla bla bla” and “this is a swirl movie bla bla bla bla”

    Nah bro that was a filmmaking slip up. They checked the barn and made everyone eat garlic.

    These niggas literally appeared from thin air as SOON as the vampires rushed in. It’s not like they came out like “oh we was in the back” they literally just magically appear all sudden

    It Made perfect sense both plot wise and thematically why she did

    The Asian woman didn’t want to give up the life of her daughter who she knew would respond to her vampire dad asking to come in

    The other peoples families were at risk too but the whole scene made perfect sense . I’m surprised at how much debate there is about that scene
