Finely nuanced drama is both hopeful and despairing. In the end, we are reminded of a common truth. Not everybody is good and not everybody is bad. Then there are those who fall in between. A very good film, with much to recommend it.

Carey Mulligan is the reason this film caught my attention. This is a savage tale of war, hate, brutal racism, hope and love. Great acting. Riveting storytelling if uncomfortable content. This film also employs an interesting narrative style I've not seen before, where the various characters, in turn, narrate their points of view - it was very effective, especially the two voices that conclude the story arch. I give this film a 7.5 (poignant) out of 10. [Historical Drama]

Netflix has been great at original tv shows for a while but they are really stepping up their game with their original movies recently. Mudbound is fantastic. It's a little longer but never drags. It hooks you and you really start to care for the characters. Really great performances by Jason Mitchell and Garrett Hedlund. Hopefully Netflix keeps this up this quality with their original movies.

Incredibly powerful, well written with an outstanding performance by the entire cast. It left me speechless, angry, sad, but hopeful that humanity can do better.

Enthralling film, perfectly paced, with excellent cinematography, about life in a dark time. Great performance from cast.
