I thought City of God was exceptional. Moonlight was too much of a slow, meandering burn that was all too familiar in the subject matter i.e. drug addicted mother and familial dysfunction and residual effects of this in Chiron's life. The film was well acted and shot well. However, it wasn't exceptional to me.
Affirmative Action? That's funny. Maybe the film is getting so much hype is because of the "Affirmative Action" associated with Brad Pitt being the executive producer on this film. It amazes me how whites cry about so called black films unjustly getting praise but say nothing about the mostly white films that are raved about that likewise don't deserve praise. Moonlight was not exceptional to me. However, not many of today's films are. Yet, I'm not screaming Affirmative Action. It's very prejudiced and dismissive.
I totally saw this coming, especially after Huck saw her sitting on the park bench with the blonde lady. I knew that Jennifer was going to get killed and Huck as well. However, the only thing I'm wondering is if they're really dead or if this was a plan to flush out the culprits of this elaborate and wacky scheme.
