The 24th

Some more of the ugly truth of white American history and nothing much has changed as far as policing. This was a great portrayal of the actual events that took place during the Houston riot on Aug. 23, 1917.

The low ratings are not based on the quality, story or worth of the movie as I perceive. This movie is based on real events that go to the heart of what America was and in many places still is. To see this side of America hurts those that refuse to acknowledge America the Beautiful - ugly evil warts and all. It is well presented, well acted, well told. It is worth seeing, if not for the quality of the film, then for the truth of the film. And, it is worth seeing with the whole family. Note that this is not a family movie, but rather a movie that reflects us. Truth hurts, but truth shall set you free.

I enjoyed this movie and time flew past quickly whilst I watched it. The characters were built up well and I felt a great empathy for some of the subjects. The film highlights some of the worst traits in mankind, racial hatred and inequality.

Excellent acting and good dialogue help this movie along. Well worth watching although very disturbing to see the grim side of our species.

A lot better than expected great acting top to bottom. Do not allow bogus reviews to sway you away this movie truly depicts the history of this country that so many want to deny or act as though wasn't that bad. Not a bad actor in the cast.....

I don't know why I didn't expect much from this, maybe been disappointed too much recently, but it is an extremely well done film, that pulls you in and gets you interested from the start.

The performances were powerful, the calibre of the acting outstanding.

A poignant film for the times, especially with everything going on at the moment in regards to race.

Well worth the watch.
