Информация о фильме

From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. In the early 1970s, Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) becomes the first African-American detective in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a difference, he bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. He recruits a seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation. Together, they team up to take down the extremist organisation aiming to garner mainstream appeal. Produced by the team behind the Academy Award®-winning° Get Out, BlacKkKlansman offers an unflinching, true-life examination of race relations in 1970s America that is just as relevant in today’s tumultuous world.

I have never been so disappointed by a movie from a book. Only 6 moments in the film are directly from the book. I counted. they cut out basically every moment of Ron's intellectual savagery, added guns, a token female, and made the Klan people into caricatures to the point of undermining the story and turning it into fiction. they even add a bomb plot into the story and footage from Charlotteville. The book is hands down better, don't bother with this.

Spike Lee on top form with an historical True story that is somehow more relevant today than the 1970s when it is set. It has a lot to say, about some truly horrible things, but it isn't bleak and dour...It manages to be heavy AND light at the ame time.In fact it has all the humour and dram you'e expect about an undercover, black cop infiltrating the KKK with a Jewish partner as well.

one of those rare occasions when a film is just perfectly timed. Spike Lee really pulled it out of the bag in what I think is the defining movie of his career so far. The whole cast nailed it, especially Adam Driver who gets the chance to shine in this like nothing he's been in before. The poetic license taken on this works and doesn't detract from the brutality of the reality and instead builds empathy and understanding of characters. A passion project that never once strays to self indulgence.
