In an alternate present-day version of Oakland, California, struggling telemarketer Cassius Green (Lakeith Stanfield) discovers a magical key to professional success, which propels him into a macabre universe.

I wanted to watch this movie along
Time ago its dope and weird like it
Unexpected! It was dope though. I love Tessa Thompson. ?
THE most racist movie I’ve seen. Such crap
Classic
Quality
That went left
WAKANDA!
Left eye works for worry free.
So many easter eggs. In not just the script but the images used.
Spoiler:
Soooo Mr.___ is Mr. Left Eye. Just how they wanted him to be the fake MLK for the horses (which I believe he did at the end of the movie) Lefteye also started this “rebellious organization under Worryfree’s control. I wouldn’t be surprised if Squeeze is in on it too.
What.
They're onto us…
I love this movie
That was trippy.
Careful chanting on the picket line or you might end up horse
This is fucking brilliant.
I watched it…
It’s fucking weird
This brings a whole new meaning to the term 'wage slave'. I expected funny, quirky, and irreverent and this delivered without once being predictable. A couple of spots were painfully awkward, there were a few abrupt emotional shifts, and jokes that did not stick the landing, but this is an otherwise well told story and for a first time director, its flaws are forgivable. Overall 7.5/10. Worth a watch for sure.
Worst movie I've seen in years for real.
This was great. The end was fucking weird but went with it. Boots is too dope
Holy shit!!!
David Cross does the white voice? Icing mf, icing!
Omari's character is the whole movie.
Let me explain.
Omari was the face of the Power Callers. From the first instant we see him waiting at the golden elevator, shiny suit, pimp hat, fancy mustache/beard, eye patch this man is the definition of fly and original. When we're introduced to him he's so nice we dont even get to find out his name. But he's the one that personally called up Cash upstairs to the PC's.
"You were the best decision I've ever made."
He was the one that bonded Cash together with the CEO. He reveals his true voice to cash, explaining to him that after [his meeting with Armie Hammer,] Everything will change. And it did.
Now as we know, Armie's Plan is to send Cash down the ranks, stir up a horse revolution, and be the company's eyes and ears during the controlled revolt.
And isn't that exactly what Omari's character did?
He hand chose Cash up the ranks knowing that he'd eventually revolt himself, and afterwards, Omari's character suddenly dipped. Specifically when Cash had succeeded in blocking the PC's from entering the building. Omari's job in starting a revolution is done. Scratch that HE WALKED OVER THE FALLEN OFFICERS WITH A SMIRK ON HIS FACE.
And speaking of face?
The group actively trying to take down the corporation know as WorryFree was know as Left Eye.
Guess what eye Omari's eye patch is on?
And this brings up an even bigger question. Who sent Omari down to start a revolution. And would that mean we're all inside a even larger world of labor that WorryFree was trying to create?
This movie was out of control. Wow.
I'm watching this tomorrow?
Freakin WOW, did not expect this movie to be, this, freakin LOVED it
Ok…..this was weird
Loved it! Black sci-fi with a message. About time!!! <3
Is this really SciFi?
This movie went off the fucking rails REEEEAAAAAALLLLYYY fast.
Nah. the "message" was compromised by the shoddy writing, plot structure, and overall execution. 6.5/10.
very funny and wierd
bruh wtf was this
Boots Riley – more please! You know what needs to be said.
Hello asswipe. Don't EVER interrupt my paid movie again Butch or I'll find you and slit your fûcking throat. That clear enough for you?
First and second act were very well done. Everything after the party though… rushed and quite a bit of nonsense. I hate the "be an activist or you're a bad person" mentality. All in all, a surreal and well-made movie though.
FUCK YOU, PAY ME
Brilliant
