Ratings and reviews

This completely historically inaccurate film, conveniently forgets to mention that the kingdom of Dahomey, was one of the biggest slaving nations in Africa, for a long time before Europeans even arrived. Shame it's being held up as historically accurate by many and is fuelling anti-white racism. Hollywood just can't seem to stop putting nonsense out there. Anyone looking at the agenda pushing rubbish coming out of Hollywood, might very easily think they're doing it deliberately. Surely not eh.

False narrative movie but the truth this is about a tribe that kept and sold slaves u til the British navy stopped it

A very good story. Glad I bought it. Watched it twice at the first sitting.
