The plot: Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers return to their Mississippi hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.
The Sinners movie was quite good.
Pros: I like it’s based on a original storyline set in 1932. It film is definitely seeing in cinemas. Micheal B. Jordan was so good playing twin brothers. I like how the cinema photography helped elevate the experience of watching it. It does gets intense throughout the movie & Hailee Steinfeld did her job to help move the plot along.
Cons: I didn’t get into the first half of this film. I had a hard time getting into what’s happening. I jumped up off my feet a few times. There not that much of a bad guy involved and The story itself sort of got lost as it was happening.
