Excellent! Bryan Stevenson a real hero. Watch the credits all the way through for interesting details. Inmates story went all the way to 60 minutes and later Senate hearing after release

Two out of three of the lead performances are incredible, Michael B Jordan is completely unrecognizable as Bryan Stevenson and Jamie Foxx is heartbreaking in his depiction of Walter McMillan. A must watch for anybody interested in court…

The movie Just Mercy, starring Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Foxx and Brie Larson is an emotional eye-opener about what is like to be tagged “guilty until proven innocent” as a black man in Alabama. This movie will definitely put you in tears…

I didn't like the movie. It was alright. They watered down the events and evidence a lot, and added unnecessary misplaced drama. The book was good but hurt my heart. The movie upset me because they didn't tell the whole story and changed…

This film, based on a true story, was directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, who also directed Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. There is sad truth to this film. The extras revealed that the crew for this film was diverse, and spoke…

Better because it is true.

Another movie based on real cases showing that Americans are far from finished with plain prejudice and lies in race relations.

A very good outing for Mr. Jordan and Mr. Foxx. A story that piqued my interest enough to look a little into the true story on which this movie is based. Definitely worth a watch but expect the heartbreak to come as you're bearing…

Good movie. The reality was sad though. Nevertheless the movie was able to deliver positivity all the way through without being too depressing.

Excellent - all the way through. Insight into the world of a Black man in the Southern USA in our not so distant past. Inspiring story of the search for truth and the fight to get there. Michael B. Jordan was amazing!

A movie everyone should watch. I cried through it. It's mind boggling that those in leadership can continue in their dictatorship without account. It seems to be the world we live in now .. where wrong is right & right is wrong, and how…

Excellent portrayal of American Justice white supremacy style. Conservative whites will have trouble believing although the story is true. The film may make some people believe the problem is in the South, but actually it also exists in…

Based on a true-story, I think it's important for everyone to see to better understand white privilege, racism, and that our justice system needs an overhaul. The lawyer is truly a hero to dedicate his career to trying to right some…

I'm not much into the African American, I guess being born in England it is my white ancestors that started it all. But this is disgusting if the law south of our border is this way.

Amazing story. I actually did a little research and found that the events and people in this movie are astoundingly accurate. The only change I found was at the end and it had to do with the prosecutor. I appreciate that, when telling a…
