Sinners Ratings & Reviews
- JOEL LIAO1d agoGood movie
- COCOApril 15, 2025We’re only in April and I’m afraid this already might be movie of the year.
- pl841911d agoSinners sucks. Vampires appear abruptly with no explanation an hour into the movie and they aren't scary at all. The fact that this movie was nominated for an Oscar has caused me to question the nature of reality. This is a simulation. I am being tested. Am I capable of independent thought or am I simply a sheep mindlessly wandering along with the consensus? Horror is our favorite genre. I used an online tool to discover something new to watch for movie night, sorting new horror releases by best rated. Sinners was literally number 1. We went in with zero expectations and were left extremely disappointed and dumbfounded by all of the praise this movie has received. My movie picking privileges were temporarily revoked, jokingly, as punishment, because this movie was so bad and you guys want to give it an Oscar.
- Matteo Cesati1d agoI don't get how this is the most Oscar-nominated movie ever... super boring.
- Kit LazerApril 18, 2025It’s a horror movie about vampires in the American South, 1932, but that’s all just set dressing. It’s such an intoxicating blend of genres, a movie that is a melting pot just like the cultural heritage this movie explores. A lot of times when one actor plays two characters in a movie, it’s neat but the performances suffer, it feels like a gimmick, but Michael B. Jordan is able make Smoke and Stack feel like two distinct, living, breathing people. It’s part crime-thriller, there’s a dash of a coming-of-age story, drama, romance, notes of a musical, it’s a stew packed with spices, and the horror simmers and simmers before coming to a rolling boil, kinda like FROM DUSK TIL DAWN. I would have watched four hours of this. I want more. It’s gorgeous, you’ve gotta see it on the biggest screen possible to appreciate the scope, the aspect ratio changes – the Cinematographer was Autumn Arkapaw, one of far too few women in charge of the camera. The sound track is alive, it’s the main character, the pulse of the movie but the score, by Ludwig Göransson who just won an Oscar for composing OPPENHEIMER and won previously for composing BLACK PANTHER, is the fangs always lurking underneath. There’s so much subtext to sink your teeth into here, the way Coogler brings in Asian immigrants, the Irish, Indigenous People – and makes it a story about all of these hardworking people, the people who bulit the real America just trying to cut loose, be free. What does freedom look like? Drinking deep, playing cards, singing from the gut about things you can’t explain you just know, dancing until you sweat; and sex, desire, can’t forget that, the writhing pulsing primal urges. But the powers that be warn all who have toiled and suffered under the sun all day to make them safe and rich that any who engage in this wanton abandon are SINNERS. They say, "Yes, you’ve worked our fields, yes, you’ve fought our wars overseas but don’t you dare sing and dance and be merry on this land you’ve bled for." Go see Sinners. Trust me, you’ve earned it.
- Mercy1d agoOriginally thought this was overrated ‘cause I’ve never been a fan of vampire films but idk now ‘cause it gets better and better every time I watch it. The cinematography is beautiful. The acting is phenomenal… The representation and culture is just 🤌🏾 🔥 🔥 🔥
- DarlingInThePlexxApril 20, 2025This is hands down the best movie I’ve seen in years. I’m not even being dramatic—Sinners connected to me emotionally in a way few movies ever do. The character development? Flawless. The symbolism? Chef’s kiss. The music? Oh my God the music. It’s the kind of soundtrack you don’t just hear—you feel it in your bones. And I’m not even a hardcore blues fan like that. That’s how good it is. I saw Sinners TWICE—and if you’re near a 70mm IMAX screening? Run. It’s absolutely worth it. That one scene with the dancing? Literal goosebumps. Unreal. Some people don’t call this a horror movie, but to me, it’s cultural horror at its finest. Not everyone fears the same things—and Sinners understands that on a level most movies never touch. Michael B. Jordan gave a phenomenal performance, but honestly? The whole cast crushed it. No weak links. Just pure storytelling, heart, and atmosphere. Not seeing Sinners should be illegal, frankly.
- eell892d agoOn so many levels, this movie surprised me
- theimmortalbum2d agoBetter than billed. A tale of family, love, historical and current injustices, and the overwhelming power of music.
- Hadiyah WeaverApril 20, 2025Too beautiful to put into words. A MUST SEE!!! Def going to be in my top movies of 2025!
- Audrey LaymanMay 11, 2025Hot take - but I should’ve walked out of the theater when vampires who met 5 mins prior broke out in a choreographed song & dance number. 2 hours of my life gone, a bellyache from popcorn, and nothing to show for it but a plot that never showed up.
- Preppie3d agoCool well played but a bit meh in the end
- Anna Hryhorenko3d agoA decent film, worth checking out. The music, dancing, vocals, and locations were all perfect! The only thing I wished for was better acting from the leads. Something more emotional. Otherwise, everything is wonderful! I recommend it! The pace, the meaning, the plot – everything is wonderful! The only thing that remains unclear to me is the story about the main characters in Chicago. Everyone talked about it, but we never really learned anything. 😬
- SkyShazadMay 18, 2025Way over Hyped. SO, I don't understand why this has got such high rating, its not a bad film, but its also over rated, I mean its a good movie, but nowhere is it as good as people are making out, I don't think its the best film of the year, Infact i don't even think I would watch it again,, Don't get me wrong, its decent film, But no way as good as people make it out to be
- rawaz1073d agoIn my opinion Michael B.Jordan deserves an oscar great acting..but the movie was alright 👍..It's a bit of a horror-action movie with great music...I think one of the best parts of that movie was the music..
