    Good Action / Thriller Movie

    Good Review: "Imani" was a blast! The plot had me hooked with all its twists and turns. Brittany S. Hall did a great job, and the action scenes were pretty cool. The story kept me interested, and the production quality was solid for a streaming movie. Definitely give it a watch if you like action-packed thrillers.

    Bad Review: The plot felt kind of forced and had too many holes. The acting was hit or miss, and some scenes were just awkward.

    The movie focuses more on the action and thriller aspects, with a strong emphasis on the protagonist's journey of self-discovery and uncovering a government conspiracy.

    Very interesting

    Very interesting and entertaining. Which there were a part 2. Said so much about how we abuse others less powerful than USA and corruption of politicians. Too many innocent people die to benefit a handful of corrupt, rich and powerful. This is not new it's the history of America. Nevertheless it was entertaining as well. I'm pretty good at figuring out who all the bad guys are, but there were some surprises. Would definitely see part 2 if ever there is one. Interesting ending. Not really sure who or why this was done, which is why a part 2 would be great. 34 characters to go! 12 more characters to go!

    Imani misses the mark

    Imani presents an intriguing concept that initially piqued my interest. The idea behind the film has a lot of potential and could have made for a compelling story. I appreciated some of the performances, as they brought a certain level of authenticity to their roles and helped elevate parts of the narrative.

    However, the execution of the film leaves much to be desired. The story unfolds at a slow pace, which can make the viewing experience feel dragged out and tedious. Some of the acting, while earnest, doesn't quite hit the mark, leading to moments that feel less impactful than they should. The technical elements also fall short, with aspects like cinematography and sound design not living up to their potential, further diminishing the film's overall effectiveness.

    Additionally, the film struggles with cohesion, as the various elements don't always mesh well together. This lack of fluidity makes it harder to stay engaged and undermines the film's ability to make a lasting impression.

    Overall, while Imani has a promising concept and some commendable performances, it is ultimately let down by poor execution, uneven acting, and technical shortcomings. It feels like a missed opportunity to deliver a more cohesive and impactful story.

    Pretty good

    This movie kept me engaged throughout the entire 2 hours. The fight scenes were not Jason Statham level, but they were good. The plot was cohesive and made sense. The acting was not the greatest, but it was not so bad that it made the movie unwatchable nor did it distract from the pacing so much that it inhibited enjoyment. All in all, i give it a solid 6 stars.

    A Total waste of 2 hours

    With the storyline it should have been a very good movie. The fight scenes were okay but the acting was mediocre to poor to say the least and that is being kind. A very poorly constructed film and a waste of money. The lead actors were not too bad but the supporting actors, and I use the word actors loosely were pathetic. With decent writers this should have been a good, watchable movie instead of a dud, The author of the previous comment was clearly watching something different to me or was being paid to come up with a positive review? In actuality anybody that paid to see it should sue. Sadly it could have been so good instead of being a dead loss.
