They need to portray beautiful black in a more uplifting light. I think its been overplayed. Enough is enough.

You lay with dogs, you get fleas... this is a tale as old as time. A lot of people have thrown their lives away with one bad decision and a lot of people have redeemed themselves. Still more have been in the wrong place and gotten unjustly punished. Life is like that.

Another one of these...it looks good and well made but I'm exhausted by the black pain at this point. Can we please get some black fantasy? Black witches and wizards? Netflix, give me a black Harry Potter or Twilight. Hell, I'll take black Kissing Booth. Everything is either slavery or racism and I say this as a woman born and raised in the south, whose grandparents told me about their personal experiences with the dogs, water, and physical torture (and had the marks to prove it). As a survivor of an assault by a racist white man, I am TIRED of this. I need to see some light at least once in a while. Not a Tyler Perry "God will fix everything" shilling, Oprah "It's hard to be a black woman" production, or Lee Daniels "We is black and crazy" bs. Tired of crying. Can I smile Netflix? Black sci fi with black couples, please. Contemporary black romance with all the cheesy cliches. I'll watch Monster because the literature is good and this looks good but the fatigue is so real.

Was expecting a horror movie ... can’t watch it not hint lie. And I feel bad for that but I can’t keep reliving trauma it’s doing a lot to me. I’m aware of our pain I would like to be reminded of our joy. Don’t know if this movie was a reference to the book but the cast is stellar I just can’t ...

Ah man I read the book this is based on in middle school. I can’t believe it’s getting a movie finally. It should be interesting because the book is written in the perspective of the main character, who choose to write it in the same format as a script. It was really creative, and different, and interesting, I hope the movie retains that same creativity.

So like does a happy black family exist or what?? Like me make it even simpler, can there be at least one movie that features someone who is black that isn't about murder, jail, or drugs. Maybe a black crazy rich aisans. Or something the shows a different life. Can I be about someone who goes to college and IDK maybe graduate and have a good life or a high school graduate who starts a Fortune 500 company, IDK just something that isn't what we see and feel every single day. It's time we start telling new stories, better ones. This is not me going off on this movie but us as a collective. Art can change the narrative or retell it.

Another black struggle film😑. Not saying these films aren't important or needed. However, there's an oversaturation of this genre in Hollywood. Being black shouldn't be viewed a traumatic experience (it isn't for me), but it seems as though that's all I see in films these days where black people are the main focus. Like is it too much to ask for an uplifting story featuring a black cast?

I’m sobbing because when I was a kid I stayed up all night reading this. I couldn’t stop turning the pages. I was stuck. All the joy and sorrow that were sewn together that night hit me when I hit play. Black boys deserve more, I was gifted more in the escape of storytelling but so many boys like me never got the chance. Nearly 20 years later, so many boys lost later, so many marches later and this story still rings loud. Thank you Walter, Thank you so much.
