Boots Riley is a rapper + long time activist and all around good man. His band is called The Coup and their debut album from the early 1990s is called Kill My Landlord. They've done a bunch of other really good albums as well - Check them out!! I saw Sorry To Bother you on release in the US and it is fantastic and continues the political activism that Boots has been doing his whole life, great movie and one thing Kermode didn't mention was the really good sound track!

Just saw it this evening, Mark wasn't wrong when he said it takes a turn for the weird. Some serious body horror here, and I do love how Steve Lift's entire look is one of someone who saw what artsy types of people were wearing and threw entirely too much money at a designer to remake. He, aside from his evil actions, probably referred to himself and spiritual but not religious.

@feliciabarker9210
@feliciabarker9210 5 лет назад
I felt it was reminding me of something throughout, and once it ended, I immediately realised that what it was reminding me of was, bizarrely, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. I think it's a closer film to the book in its spirit and themes than Blade Runner, actually. Blade Runner lost a lot of the examination of labour drudgery that was prevalent in the book, whereas it's right here. And the TV show in this is very reminiscent of the odd VR stoning segments in DADOES (a subplot that Blade Runner culls entirely).

I saw this with my wife when it was released in the US. She is Spanish and felt that it probably wouldn't play the same back in Spain because it's too much of a dark & fantastic view of our working conditions, that there wouldn't be anything for audiences to connect to. Whereas for us in the US, being used to our terrible terms of employment and medical system, etc., and also far more prominent racial politics, it feels more viscerally relatable, like a nightmare that seems a little too real. I'd be curious if British audiences would feel a similar distance to Sorry To Bother You as my wife felt.

Only three Movies in 2018 so far(the others are: You Were Never Really Here & Operation Red Sea (The Chinese Anti Black Hawk Down)and The Night comes for us)) hav' done that to me. THIS is the fours One. It's a Miracle that the Director could get the Money & Freedom to do it his Way. Great Review as always. Best regards

Brilliant film. Everyone sees it as an indictment of capitalism, but I saw it as an indictment of greed, corporate corruption, exploitation, slavery, perhaps fascism. But capitalism is not a pathway to any of those things, it's a simple principle of personal financial freedom.

Just seen it. It's okay. I'll give it some credit for trying to do something different. I get it's trying to do social commentary, especially concerning workers' rights and the current economy we have due to globalisation. Unfortunately though, it's rather stretched too far - and the 180 towards the final act, probably just pushes it too far, then I think it loses all of the social commentary from before. It's gallant attempt though, for a first time director.

@GoldenGyroBalls
@GoldenGyroBalls 5 лет назад
I wanted to love this due to the cast and creative script but the direction felt so slack and dull for a movie needed an absolute mad man at the helm to give it the punch it deserves. On top of that, I felt the film unfortunately abandoned its thesis of the "White Voice" in favor of something else entirely that while I get the point of it, lacks the bite of the initial ideas. Also this needed more Danny Glover and Terry Crews. You're better off watching Blindspotting instead.
@MrSamDeeds
@MrSamDeeds 5 лет назад
Couldn't disagree more -- Blindspotting isn't 1/10th the film Sorry is. Blindspotting exploits the issues it depicts, such as killercops, without having anything insightful or deeply true to say about them. The penultimate scene is despicable, in which the protagonist's best friend brutalizes an African-American man, only to remain chumming it up with our hero at the end with no consequences. We're literally shown someone committing a hate crime and expected to absolve him without any display of remorse, let alone, restitution, because gentrification is bad. The white-voice device isn't Sorry's "thesis" - it's the catalyst the story uses to explore how issues of class and race intersect -- all while mining dark comedy driven by an understanding of the contradictions inherent in capitalism.
@ChillyGonzalo
@ChillyGonzalo 5 лет назад
If you thought the "White Voice" was the thesis of the film, i can absolutely understand why you didn't like the film. It's just a single point of critique in a film about the absurd horrors of capitalism. It just happened to be the one of the few things in the film that could possibly be turned into a usable movie trailer & selling point for general audiences.
