Review of Sorry to Bother You (2018) by Treestand — 22 Jul 2018

The less you know about this film going into it, the better. It's amazing. So surreal, yet so real. Go see it, get your friends to see it. I don't want to spoil anything here, but this film is worth being talked about, not just about the plot, or the quirky optics, but about the ideas presented through it.

If you're into surrealist satire and poignant social commentary, you'll love this film. If you prefer your films to have soft edges, then gtfo. The fact that there is a 1/10 score on here by a 'decent christian' who was appalled by the film, left and asked for their money back, only helps sell how great this film is.

My ONLY criticism is that Tessa Thompson's character becomes too much of a 'prize to be won' by the protagonist in the third act, would have loved to see her character develop more beyond the moral compass.
