    A Must Watch
    As A white man watching this I was enraged, I can only imagine what it's like for black people to watch.

    It's filmed really well and you get a real sense of what went on on that horrible morning.

    Looking at the reviews on here you can see some very racist views.

    The coroner ruled that he was killed while on the ground and not while running around brandishing a knife.

    The acting is excellent by the whole cast.

    I encourage everyone to watch this movie.
