Still a powerful movie. those 1st 10-15 mins...
I've been wondering for a while if a tv series about the civil rights movement would make it on like HBO or Starz. Done similar to how Boardwalk Empire was. Gives them more time to talk about more people involved.

Breh, caught me off guard completely. Wasn't ready for it. It got dusty in the theater

Yeah my cousin said "she was awkward in that movie" and I told her it may have been because she was acting with Common who is
at times
I loved the movie, only thing I wish they would've done was fleshed out the relationship between King and Malcolm X a little more. They went from Malcolm talking to Coretta, to MLK's anger at her talking to him, to King referencing his death. I felt they just kind of rushed over the fact that the two reconciled before Malcolm's death and there was a possibility that they could've joined forces (in SOME capacity)
I don't think that's the movie though. It's not really a king biopic as much as its a movie about Selma and Bloody Sunday so while it would've been cool to see that, that's a different movie. Everything that happens in that movie had to do with Selma and the methods taken to get legislation passed so Malcolm's importance was the one scene he did
