Review of The Hate U Give (2018) by Dawdlingpoet — 24 Nov 2021

This is by no means a bad film - it does well at making the necessary points known and would be a good watch for adolescents to consider the way the authorities have mis-judged situations etc. It isn't what I think of as an entirely memorable film and while the performances are good and the story decent, its no more than a fairly decent film.

I felt one or two parts of the plot were predictable and its not the most impactful film I've ever seen but maybe to expect that would be expecting a bit much(?!). Overall its worth seeing if the story intrigues you, so yes, I'd recommend it.
