Review of Antebellum (2020) by Rjmacready — 03 Nov 2020
Aside from a slightly slow start, this is a rare bird indeed: a movie with a plot twist that actually WORKS. Or at least it did for me (I see that it didn't for several others)!
Definitely a film best entered into knowing as little as possible, though I will say this: in an era full of rampant "wokeness" and "virtue signalling", this film addresses the very topical issue of racism in a relatively clever and non-preachy fashion. An engaging romp that had me almost whooping with excitement during the climactic scenes. See it for reasons of enjoyment, as opposed to "enlightenment".
