Review of If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) by Jluis_001 — 18 Feb 2019

I liked it a lot and Barry Jenkins deserves a lot of recognition because he managed to do a very good job considering that he had to follow up what he achieved with Moonlight and that's not easy.

The only problems and reasons why I don't give it more stars is because I didn't like the narrative rhythm and this is due to the second problem and that is that the performances feel too controlled and to some extent overreacted and that didn't really felt quite right.

But beyond that, it remains a solid option.
