Review of BlacKkKlansman (2018) by Jens S — 26 Jan 2019

This film couldn't have come out at a more fitting time. It doesn't even try to hide its commentary on the current state of the US administration and GOP. It is accordingly fitting and nevertheless devastating to see the film end with actual clips from the Jacksonville events of 2017 and the presidents' comments.

As for the main film about the undercover work inside the KKK in the late 1970s, it's pretty great. While the advertising (and poster) suggested an even crazier premise, it's still pretty fascinating, well done and acted.
