Spectacularly well made, and even weirdly kind of relatable in parts, _Blindspotting_ may not come away being my favourite movie of the year or anything, but it's the sort of one that I would absolutely not be mad about taking home the big awards. Absolutely felt these characters. The only movie in **literally** as long as I can remember, that actually gave me nightmares. _Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time._

A couple of real world rappers play a couple of movie world rappers who are actually truck drivers but also rap, like, all the time. The movie is a scatter shot of political statements on the contemporary black experience in America. Policing, incarceration, white people. The points of views are interesting and valid, but the scatter shot undermines the overall narrative arc, making for an uneven viewing experience. There is lots of good stuff in here and a bit of eye rolling moments, but ok, good. Ending was way too contrived, but ok, shoe horn that in there why not.
