Got some great scenes. Definitely got mired by the controversy from the director.
if you know america's slave trade, nat turner ain't much of murderer, if you know what happened and history, slave masters did alot of kills
Such an important story that should not be overshadowed
Gripping moving story of a slave rebellion
As a movie, I think it’s easy to see it was being overhyped prior to the Nate Parker debacle.
Some well made parts in a pretty messy film
I love this movie it is one of my favorites and it is well overdue we need more like this
Controversy aside the movie is still well acted and well made
Good story. Not a classic movie but decent
Such a powerful story but not told in the best way.
