Well it took me a minute to adjust my perspective, to open my mind as it were. I really enjoyed his performance, it was provocative to be sure. I am a firm believer that race and cultures will always find a way to be at odds from a narrow perspective. We're born and raised in an environment to protect ourselves from hate and harm from outsiders.

When someone so gracefully shines a bright light on all the idiosyncrasies without malice, it makes for great entertainment. A bit uncomfortable and threatening at first, a real skill in comedic delivery keep up the good work. You've got a new fan in me.

The story is foremost, the acting is genuine. The story is presented in a respectful manner, it's hard to convey such a repugnant time in history.

They got it right, there are many ways to get it wrong or to be offensive. Heartfelt yet direct. I'll not influence the story line. A must watch production those that can identify with the story line and subject will without doubt be moved. Sadly due to the polarization in the world today, the subject matter could create conflict. My hopes are that everyone will feel the humanity and come away with positivity and respect for the experiences presented.

Jenifer Lopez has been off my radar for a while, all of a sudden she's got a musical that makes no sense other than to try and parade some sort of showcase ego gone wrong. Now this movie Atlas is a joke, her half whisper "pity me" lines give her no credibility at all. I didn't take the time to see who directed this, but not only is the attitude wrong but her timing is way off.

I can't count how often in a drama scene her fake emotion brought me to full laughter. Cringeable, I can't believe this made it through post production. The special effects were corny, the exploding head with the popping eyeball comes to mind. I couldn't continue watching, obviously the director was distracted. The camera work was very professional and the sound was perfect. All production was great the feature character casting is very poor. Some of the same failed character combinations she has carried with her in other movies.

I just wasn't expecting a parody, I thought it was a serious movie but it was not. Dramatic lines were coupled with faceless expression. What's with the pity soft voice. A joke in my opinion. Sorry Jennifer.

I'm waiting to see what others think but it's all thumbs down for me👎
