I Love Boosters is not a movie. It’s a call to action.

Boots Riley’s newest film doesn't hold back, in its messaging or in its weirdness.

It is funny, visually stunning, and unique. Despite the fact that I Love Boosters is clearly a political statement that loudly condemns capitalism and the institutions that uphold it, this reviewer still found herself laughing out loud throughout, clapping whenever the underdogs landed a punch against “the system,” and gawking in awe at the intricate costumes and stunning visuals. The film intentionally blends surrealist imagery and hysterical hijinks to create the imaginative medium through which director Boots Riley delivers a one-two punch against the monopoly capitalist system that has come to dominate our present society.

Chicago, IL – Ryan Coogler’s movie Sinners is densely packed with social commentary. Much has been written about the film's reflections on a range of topics. This review is grounded in how the film addresses national liberation. Sinners demonstrates through its plot that Black liberation is incompatible with capitalism.
