Quote:

THE BEST OF ENEMIES is a timely drama starring Academy Award® nominee Taraji P. Henson (Hidden Figures) and Academy Award® winner Sam Rockwell (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri).

Based on a true story, THE BEST OF ENEMIES centers on the unlikely relationship between Ann Atwater (Henson), an outspoken civil rights activist, and C.P. Ellis (Rockwell), a local Ku Klux Klan leader who reluctantly co-chaired a community summit, battling over the desegregation of schools in Durham, North Carolina during the racially-charged summer of 1971. The incredible events that unfolded would change Durham and the lives of Atwater and Ellis forever.

Well acted and paced. Sam Rockwell is a treasure. The story is probably a little tiresome by now but I give it 4 stars for the execution. Beware, there are no spaceships or giant powerful aliens.

I had wanted to see this, but don't think I'll get to it before it leaves theaters on Tuesday.

They shouldn't have opened it against Shazam and Pet Sematary, as both of those took priority. Crowded weekend.

Well it's got to be a step up from What Women Think Men Are Like for Taraji.

It's absolutely a step up from Pet Semetary.

Great film, enjoyed it a bit more than I thought I would and I thought I'd really enjoy it!
Terrific performances from both leads and a very involving and moving story.
Surprised they didn't save it for the end of the year to at least try and get it in the Oscar race.
It's a top 10 movie in wide release, how come no one's talking about it here?
Anyway, 4.5/5 stars or 8.5/10.
Highly Recommended, go see it!

Good intentions aside, The Best of Enemies is tone-deaf and out of touch. 2/5
