Great acting and sad real story.
Ridiculous...Over and over the same dialogue and a sanitation worker with the best teeth I ever saw. Make them realistic for the craft. I couldn't wait for the end nor could the others in the theater. Who is giving this good reviews? I think a bogeyman.
What a good movie...excellent acting by all...
He was very hard on one son and the other son was always coming around when money was involved. There were only 3 scenes they kept showing, him leaving work, in the back yard and in the house. Viola spent a lot of time at the church and Denzel spent a lot of time at the bar. They never spent time together. He was always talking about sex. I'm shocked he had time to have sex with Viola, since he was cheating. He was such a big man when it came to talking his son, but he was a punk when it came to telling Viola about his affair. After he passed away, everyone looked like they got younger.
The acting was great, but it was too sad and dark for me. I ended up really disliking it.
Well acted but gave impression of stage play - on film.
Great acting, real story, much to think about.
Good dialog and great acting performances, but visually unimpressive and non-existent message.
Sadly just a story of a mean old man. Struggled to think of the key point it was trying to share.
Fantastic acting, writing, directing.
