    A must-watch drama film!

    Greenwood Rising is an inspiring movie that will keep you hooked right till the end. Truly loved watching this incredible and powerful story of O. W Gurley. Watched it for free on Fawesome today- would recommend this to anyone looking for an entertaining yet educational watch! Darius McCrary has done a super job playing the role of OW Gurley! Commendable acting.

    The soundtrack "Melanin Popping" is my new favourite song :D listen to it all the time.. The other songs are quite up-beat and catchy too!

    Not to give any spoilers ------- but the ending was very inspiring and will leave you wanting for more.

    Love this actress!!!!!

    Wow! Never knew this story! Good movie and glad it was finally told. This actress Fatima was awesome from beginning to finish! Great acting and finally an actress that brings CLASS to a movie!! Fatima was the PERFECT actress to portray Emma. I love the sense of sincereness and purity in this actress. Fatima reminds me of the beautiful "Old Hollywood" stars back in the day in those classic movies. Her crying scene made me cry! I felt that!! I'm ready to see her in another movie. I really enjoyed watching her. I'm going to watch this movie again with my girlfriends tonight lol. I like the music in this movie.

    Great portrayal

    I live in Charleston so I love movies with historical significance. Fatima portrayed Emma in a very demure, kind, sweet way. I really enjoyed her most in the whole film. I'm not a fan of the Family Matters actor and have not seen him on tv in a while but he did pretty well. He portrayed O. W. Gurley respectfully and with heart. I think the script could have had more substance. I assume Fatima is a newer actress but I think she could use something with a little more meat to it and more scenes. I know this movie was not meant to center around the wife but I found myself enjoying her delivery the most. She is the reason for the stars. I don't know if i would have finished the movie if she did not play the role.

    What a Great Film Showing The History

    I thought this was informative and uplifting. I really enjoyed the different cast and how they played off of each other so well. I had heard of Greenwood before but had not known much about it, and this film really helped give me a glimpse of what it was like. Darrius and Fatima did great together and I hope to see them soon. What a great movie! The bad guys really played their scenes well too. Thanks to Fawesome for putting out this film and I can't wait to see more of these films. There were some really good bad guy roles as well and I think they played their roles wonderfully to help shed some light on the truth of Greenwood.

    Its so bad

    More than 90% of the movie is made by AI im talking about that type of AI people use for TikTok memes it's like a school project movie dont waste your time watching this people aren't force to make movies when they wont even try to record a walking scene and use AI for it if you watch this movie once you'll find out what im talking about and now i have to write more than 1k words to post my opinion, and your mom house 🏠 and i dont know if you want thats more than I can you make a Minecraft server bro 😁 and i could have been a lot 😅 then I'll keep an argue with me 😀 and i dont have to pay taxes then.
