A good movie

Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this movie, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, to be honest, even though it was definitely a decent watch, I can't say it really blew away though. I guess it had to do with the fact that even though Oscar Grant was an interesting character, he was still not really fascinating, regardless of his really tragic death. Eventually, this movie raises the following question: should your life becomes suddenly more interesting from the moment you die in the most random way possible? Anyway, in spite of these flaws, it was still a pretty good movie though thanks to some solid directing from Ryan Coogler, especially when you  think that it was his directing debut, and a star-making performance from Michael B. Jordan. Indeed, even though I had already seen couple of his other movies, it is actually thanks to this movie that I finally saw his true potential. Indeed, the guy has enough charisma and talent to actually become the next Denzel Washington. Anyway, to conclude, even though I don't think this movie was really a masterpiece, it was still a solid drama and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
