One Night in Miami...

"Both entertaining and illuminating, the Amazon production draws a tacit line between a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights movement and America's current racial reckoning." 

"King turns 'One Night in Miami' into a real movie, staging it with a flowing visual confidence and vibrant emotional flair that gives it a fly-on-the-wall authenticity." 

"[It] hits so hard because it remains joyfully, often painfully grounded in what makes a person extraordinary, even when the world isn’t ready for them. Here’s hoping this world is ready for what King has to show it." 

"An instructive and absorbing watch. But as a film with the potential to do more, push further and explore (...) it feels too timid, too talky, too conceptual" 

"There's enough blazing talent in the civil rights drama "One Night in Miami" to light up any screen you watch it on." 

"[King] succeeds at turning a property with a number of potential wrong turns into a vibrant historical tale tackling issues and controversies that remain tragically relevant nearly 60 years later." 

"King makes her directorial debut with an assured, electrifying film adaptation (...) Early on it, you begin to sense King’s deep feeling for this project, the way she’s adapting and expanding the play while preserving the strength of its dialogue, which stealthily drops emotional bombs throughout (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
