Review of Fences (2016) by Josh A — 17 Jan 2017
Although it features powerhouse performances from Washington and Davis, the feature film format does the source material no favors. It feels long-winded, cheapens its central metaphors by hitting us over the head with them, and makes it painfully obvious that Troy Maxson is a guy with whom nobody would want to spend 5 minutes, let alone 2+ hours.
