Excellent Movie with a deep message for our urban community of today

Great price . Go there and catch a sale . $6.44 I paid .

Great film and VERY timely. Should be seen by all.

Would recommend, very good movie for a really good price.

Great story looking at a police shooting from all points.

Good adaptation that tells a timely story. Great acting.

This movie was very interesting, it was a good buy.

...it's a movie with a message that will open up discussion and good dialog. I just wish the movie went a little deeper. Maybe it was made for the younger audience. But still there is a good message in there and still worth a watch.

This movie will make you cry, think and want to understand why people do and think the way they do . i wish we could all just love each other .. sadly we cant

Powerful, but felt it didn’t go far enough in some aspects and unrealistic in others.

Wasn’t what I expected.could have been better. Great price enough though I’m not giving 100.

I purchased as a gift because of a request by a young person.

Just move it feels like it’s heart is in the right place but it just doesn’t know how to translate that into screen. It’s got some decent actors though this guy from euphoria looks Just like Will Smith I think that was probably intentional but also a strange choice

Wasn’t as good as I thought it would be but enjoyed watching

I picked up the 4k format for this one. The colors were very vivid and vibrant. I especially like the difffrent tones they were used to set the tone between the characters neighborhood and school. The transfer was also very crisp in detail. Now unto the story/movie itself. I wanted to picked this up based off the trailer alone, it was very engaging and has some some very impactful moments. the pacing was very consistant, i don't have any critics. its worth the price of pickup and worth a watch or 2.

this was a great movie to watch it as had a great story with great actors

A messy message. Coming in, I wasn’t really expecting much out of this movie based on the trailer alone. I had a very similar negative reaction to the trailer for Blindspotting, but that ended up being one of my favorite movies of the year so far, so I was hoping The Hate U Give would turn out similarly. Unfortunately my fears came true, and although the message for the film is obviously necessary, the execution is quite poor. The movie starts off with some very corny narration that acts as if it’s a dumb children’s movie, and I immediately knew how this film would turn out. My least-favorite aspect of the film is definitely the writing, the dialogue and plot structure and character motivations are all over the place. When something promising is starting to develop or is shown on screen, the film immediately becomes dumb with its characters and lacks essential focus. The only redeemable qualities of the film are some of the performances, particularly Stenberg, Hall, Common, and Mackie, but what they are given does not make their jobs any easier. All of the high school aspects are very cheesy, with all of the characters being so bland and uninteresting, and sometimes even laughable. The concept of the film is interesting, having this innocent teenage girl witness a horrible tragedy right in front of her eyes and having to deal with the aftermath, but the script does not bring out the best of the story’s potential. A lot of the film comes off as an average melodramatic TV film, but this movie has way too large of a budget to be that. I’ve loved many socially-charged films released last year, but unfortunately this isn’t one of them.
