Was Moonlight better than Birth of a Nation?

I didn't see moonlight but BOAN was docile as fukk to be a movie about a slave rebellion. They gave more screen time to the white masters abusing slaves than they did to the actual rebellion. Controversy or not BOAN was very underwhelming, especially given the subject matter. There really wasn't that much distinction between BOAN and 12 years a slave, save for the last 5 min. Django was more of a slave rebellion movie than that

I'm going to go see Moonlight for the second time tomorrow.
I love Moonlight because it showcases the perspective of a gay black man, which we never get to see.The concept was wonderful but I'm not going to lie, it fell short.There was not enough depth to the story.It should of had a gay sex scene.

this is true i thought he was going to be killing white folks like crazy shyt i was in the movies happy as shyt
Just saw Moonlight. Overrated as fukk.
Of course it's the movie everyone's dikkriding. Poverty porn + black homosexuality > slave rebellion.
Birth of a Nation was flawed, but definitely the better film (better script and directing, hands down). And frankly, what Nate Parker pulled off independently on a tiny budget is remarkable.
Just goes to show you - most people are still threatened by slavery and tackling racism head on.

Django is a spaghetti western. The goat director has said this multiple times
I didn't really feel Birth of a Nation like that 
the religiousness of it was difficult for me to accept. I wasn't trying to hear that bible talk 
It was a pretty good movie besides that. Really painful to watch the brutal treatment slaves were subjected to
so it is definitely an important film in recording and depicting the ugly truth.

Moonlight is great, very well directed and shot. Haven't seen BOAN yet but I'm looking forward to it.
Moonlight is one of the best films I've seen in the past few.
Its not poverty porn nor is it a gay film. If you got that from watching it then you aren't too bright. The film is about how societal pressures impact identity...the protagonist just happened to be gay.

Yes
Birth of A Nation was trash
I don't see how anyone can think Moonlight wasn't the better movie lol
