Sinners – 7.8

One powerful movie. Ryan Coogler keeps us on the edge of our seats, guessing where the story is going before it explodes in our faces. There’s a lot about music, especially the blues, Southern culture, power, magic, sex (romance?) and race (the good guys are Native American, the bad guys white, and everyone in between in Black). I only wish I had closed-captioning, and maybe if Michael B. Jordan hadn’t played both brothers I could’ve told them apart.
