I really feel like I should give this a 10 instead of a 9. I personally can't think of anything wrong with it, except I rarely give 10s, and this is not Citizen Kane nor the Godfather. However, this a true story (okay, I didn't Google it to see how accurate it is), and an inspirational one. I'm not a reviewer who needs to recap the plot, the action, the performances, though each actor was great... well, the prosecution were maybe a little cliche and James Cromwell was kind of a dick, but ... you know ... in those days, I can't say the real people weren't. And probably Mr. Marshall was played a little more lofty and infallible than he was in real life. Or maybe not. What a hero. So I'll just say that if you're an American (or anyone) with a soul and a conscience, you'll probably really enjoy this film. I did.

This movie could have focused on the entire life of Thurgood Marshall. It instead focuses on one single groundbreaking case, which works just as well. It involves with the case he works on with another lawyer about a black man accused of raping a white woman. Everything about this movie was good from the performances to the story to the ensemble and the way it clicked. The courtroom scenes, the synagogue scene, and the jazz band scene where they met the famous writers were all terrific. Chadwick Boseman was great in the title role.*** out of ****

This crap don't qualify for a B movie. Marshall what? What insignificant case is this. Does not tell bull about Marshall. This movies like many only got good ratings because? You all know why don't you? We so sorry for segregation aight? Yes we are AH AH not for REAL just in movies.

I watched all of the leading movies made in 2017 and this was by far the best. Marshall did a lot of great work in his life, besides this one early trial. Sequel, please!
