Amerykańska fikcja Ratings & Reviews
- Desmond Dale24 stycznia 2025On rewatch I have to say that my love for this film has grown exponentially. It's simply incredible how Cord Jefferson has managed to offer direct commentary and satire of the reductive Tyler Perry style black familial melodramas while simultaneously leading by example and creating his own drama centered around a dysfunctional yet loving black family that's atypical and progressive. The end is also brilliant as Cord decides to get even more meta by having his lead protagonist talk directly to the director of the film that we're essentially watching and throwing out different endings until they settle on what's arguably the most contrived because Hollywood is only pleased when black people are getting shot or arrested or both.
- thomasrogers75326 kwietnia 2026I really don’t know how to feel about this film. It’s a movie I liked not one that I loved. The story itself is good and I enjoyed the characters but something about it didn’t fully click for me the entire time, maybe it’s because the ending didn’t stick for me as I think it has for some other people, but also I don’t know just the story itself felt a little discombobulated and there’s too much going on at times but I think it has an overall good message and story even if it gets a little lost on the way there.
- Kich25429 marca 2026"Geniuses are lonely because they can't connect with the rest of us" Maaan...got to say on rewatching this movie, it just revealed much on myself. Touched alot on I as a father(boredom and rage), a partner(the pushback towards his girlfriend who was only trying to understand him as the individual that he is) and as a person generally who, frankly, has a challenge connecting with people on a deeper level as the protagonist-"let people love all of you". This will be rewatched again😎
- tellum28 lutego 2026“We just want black voices to be heard.”
- neuroparadox29 lipca 2025I hope this wins Best Picture, I can't think of a better ending than that. Sharing to all my white friends now!
- Lynne20 sierpnia 2025Loved it.
- nick wasslen24 maja 2025Absolutely brilliant. Biting satire of the white capitalist, bougie wokeness rampant in the west.
- Kevin Ward2 lipca 2025Loved this. Jeffrey Wright plays Thelonius “Monk” Ellison, an academic, and published author who’s having difficulty finding distribution for his latests work because it’s not “black” enough. Out of frustration and indignation he pens a new book under a pseudonym that panders to a white audience and perpetuates negative black stereotypes. You can probably guess what happens next. Funny from start to finish filled with acerbic wit, thought provoking satire and thick with irony. Jeffrey Wright is perfectly cast as Monk/Stagg R Leigh. Also Sterling K Brown is shirtless the entire movie. Plus, put Adam Brody in everything and give us The Kid Detective sequel we all deserve. Also reminded me of Adaptation in many ways. Highly recommend.
- Tanalien2 listopada 2024The Black family at the heart of Cord Jefferson’s script could encompass any ethnicity in America. Make it a story about an Indian, Latino, Chinese, or Native family. It could just as heartfelt and equally caustic. Ethnic stereotypes abound – and they can be exploited for big monetary gain. The universal question that Monk confronts is whether falsely validating anyone’s wide generalizations about a specific group is a sin.
- Rowan Krzysiak12 lutego 2025It takes a bit for the puzzle pieces to come together but stay patient and you will be handsomely rewarded. Top stuff, highly recommended.
- Ray Hopkin12 października 2024An excellent movie, so well written and with an amazing supporting cast. But Jeffery Wright shows why he is such a great actor, giving Monk a relatable but flawed personality, that despite everything, you still want to root for him.
- qmechan23 stycznia 2025This mediation on art and race Shows half condemnation, half-grace. Like Bamboozled, it asks why it's harmful to mask when a mind's outpaced by a false face?
- vangh118 grudnia 2024Absolutely brilliant in its ability to feel both grounded and big for the sake of it's message, it's comedy, and it's human-ness. It's ability to have the plot be big and ridiculous and go exactly where you think it will, while also having the quieter human story thrumming alongside and being the anchor that makes the ridiculousness make sense was masterful. The scene where Monk and Sintara are discussing the difference between the two books over lunch was some of the best writing I've seen in a while. Absolutely loved, loved, loved this.
- rg94001 listopada 2024American Fiction is a fascinating movie that is both a lot more and a lot less than I was initially expecting. There are essentially two separate stories here, that while they do interact and influence each other, also feel distinct in a way where I feel they do not exactly complement/reflect each other as well as they could. The A plot is what the trailer heavily plays into, the idea of a black writer who plays into racial stereotypes to illustrate the absurdity of tokenization, only to then see himself become a bestseller. The B plot revolves around a surprisingly deep exploration of the same writer's personal relationships and ties to his family and close ones. The A plot brings the humor, with some excellent comedic moments, as well as thematic depth including some fairly open-ended but complex topics that left me thinking about the multitude of sides to the idea of identity and how it is reflected in media and literature. Despite feeling slightly open-ended, I feel the movie is a microcosm of the entire idea it is dissecting, and so I was okay with it leaving us feeling like there were no easy answers. The B plot, however, also feels like it never fully resolves some of the character arcs that were set up. And while I do understand the conceptual idea of there being no easy answers there either, I did feel a bit let down in that regard. Still, I was not expecting the character study aspect, and I found it a welcome surprise, even if I wish the A plot and it were more balanced (the B plot tends to dominate the movie in my opinion) and complementary. Sterling K. Brown's acting in particular deserves special attention because I found it incredible and honestly one of my favorites of 2023.
