A razor-sharp satire with equal elements of Spike Lee mixed with Idiocracy and just a dash of Cronenberg (wait for that third-act U-turn). Skewering capitalism and racism with equal fervor, Boots Riley, with some excellent turns from Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson (with support from her earrings) and Armie Hammer (along with the "white" voices of David Cross and Patton Oswalt) has crafted perhaps the most unique film of 2018. It's hard to say if this will be everyone's cup of tea, but it's certainly entertaining.
