positive · AI labelView post →Also, I saw The Woman King. After that film, I automatically find Viola Davis beating people ass as a concept believable lmfao.
positive · AI labelView post →Finally caught The Woman King tonight, and that movie kicks all kinds of ass. Damn! Cannot recommend it enough.

neutral · AI labelView post →My ★★★ review of The Woman King boxd.it/9oZjqd Well-meaning fantasy as opposed to gritty realism, "true" story is both problematic & painfully old-fashioned. Viola Davis & Lashana Lynch shine, screenplay riddled with creaky contrivances & laughable coincidences. Expected to love it! 😪 #filmsky 📽
neutral · AI labelView post →THE WOMAN KING shoulda got the entire cast and crew action movie options for the next decade.
positive · AI labelView post →Thinking about it some more Gina Prince-Bythewood’s “The Old Guard” and “The Woman King” both count. Female director + female cinematographer. Both are in the male action film vein. How does she portray “ideal male”? I will note that the romance in Guard was mostly queer, and in King felt tacked on

Free with Museum admission.

neutral · AI labelView post →Purely unintentional, but my last three film viewings all examined race as a central theme (and were made in three distinctly different time frames, 1930s, 1960s, 2020s). Hmm. The Story of a Three-Day Pass The Woman King Showboat #filmsky 📽
neutral · AI labelView post →I haven’t watched the movie “The Woman King” yet and have now put it on the top of my watch list. I did find a book called “DAHOMEY: The True Story Behind The Kingdom That Inspired The Woman King“ by Vivian Chibuife. Thank you Andrea!
neutral · AI labelView post →She was in Viola Davis' film The Woman King & performed with Sza when she did Kill Bill for the Grammy's like last year. I recognized her cuz I used to follow her for yrs & was hyped when I saw her on screen.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you see this, post purple art ^^ My attempt at Nanisca from the movie "The Woman King" (which was amazing btw) #oc #art
positive · AI labelView post →I finally got a chance to watch The Woman King (2023), which I wanted to see when it was in theaters but the weekends just didn't cooperate, and this movie slaps +
positive · AI labelView post →Today's movie is The Woman King based on a real all-female army in Dahomey. 🇧🇯
neutral · AI labelView post →me? 45/M watching the Woman King on FXM. Nothing like pissing the MAGA base off with a movie about an African tribe of women.
neutral · AI labelView post →Lashana Lynch plays Rita Marley - we saw her in The Woman King. She was also in the last Bond movie, but that's not her fault. She will soon appear in the TV series The Day of the Jackal, of which I am eager to see. I loved the 1973 movie. #hatm
neutral · AI labelView post →JE Smyth asks, 'What's your (film) energy going into 2025'? Smyth chose Bette Davis in 'All About Eve'. Great choice. Love that film (and Davis) I chose Viola Davis in 'The Woman King'. (Yup. Another Davis) Anyone screened 'NightBitch' yet? Daughter and I will see it next week.
neutral · AI labelView post →Its not bad, but too much by the numbers for me and having "Oscar bait" written all over it My ★★★ review of The Woman King on Letterboxd boxd.it/6QcbTr #FilmSky 📽️
neutral · AI labelView post →Frickin loved The Woman King. The cast was phenomenal 😭💗📽️
positive · AI labelView post →My wife took my mother and I to see THE WOMAN KING, marking the first time I went to a movie theater since before Covidpocalypse. If you ask me about the birthday before that, I'm toast.
neutral · AI labelView post →well, guess I'm running for Homecoming again. but this time I'm going for royalty. sure they'll call me a "king", but there's a film called "The Woman King" so it works I guess
neutral · AI labelView post →The Woman King is so good. That movie deserves more recognition.

positive · AI labelView post →I think I don't know how to classify 'mainstream movie' now. Going by total box office, both Everything Everywhere All At Once and The Woman King outgrossed Cocaine Bear and the Paw Patrol Movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Last nights movie was.... The Woman King with Viola Davis Excellent 😍😍😍

neutral · AI labelView post →... problems but that doesn't mean it can't be enjoyed. It's also missing the point on how a story is judged for accuracy. An inaccurate film has to do something incredibly bad to be noticed like 'The Woman King'. Combine this with the culture war and it gets particularly nasty on social...
neutral · AI labelView post →This doesn’t happen without The Woman King. So happy folks made that film a success.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Woman King was a good movie!
positive · AI labelView post →name a film with a black protagonist The Woman King (2022)
neutral · AI labelView post →71) Izogie, from the movie The Woman King. I mean the entire cast was *incredible*, but Lashana Lynch with Izogie thooooo!
positive · AI labelView post →@[email protected] It's not a matter of percentage. It's really a shame that all of the nominated directors are men. There were some phenomenal films directed by women this year. I'm especially disappointed that #TheWomanKing wasn't represented for #ViolaDavis or director #GinaPrinceBythewood . #Oscar #Oscars
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah. IndieWire made it plain. I’m still shaking my head. Especially about the best actress category when you look at the full list. No shade to the other great obvious work this year, but come on now. #TheWomanKing #violadavis #academyawards #blackmastodon
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching the Woman King again for the 5th time today. AMAZING movie. 10000000000/10. Highly recommend. I love strong women. I've got a big ass crush on Izogie as well.
positive · AI labelView post →It has been my experience that, as a filmmaker, Gina Prince-Blythewood _does not miss._ BEYOND THE LIGHTS, THE OLD GUARD, THE WOMAN KING, all top-shelf. Very intrigued to see this one. gizmodo.com/children-of-...
neutral · AI labelView post →Soooooooooooo.... Are y'all gonna go see that movie with the all black cast, original story that's not an IP, and directed by a black woman movie by the name of Is God Is? Let's not move the goal post like what happened to The Woman King.
neutral · AI labelView post →While the broad history of The Woman King is true, the explicit details within the film are where the liberties are taken. The film's events take place in 1823, where under King Ghezo, Dahomey is attempting to free itself of its tributary duties to the Oyo empire. Love this movie, LOVE IT! 💕
positive · AI labelView post →You want to watch a movie to celebrate women.. It’s not a cheerleader movie or some burn book movie.. Watch The Woman King or Erin Brockovich. Slice TV, you’re 50 shades of effin stupid 🙄 The Woman King is probably the best movie out there representing women.
positive · AI labelView post →Film-wise: at 9pm, The Pope’s Exorcist on Film4, Johnny Mnemonic on Sky Max or 1960s version of Casino Royale on ITV4. At 10pm, The Woman King on 4Seven. At 11.10pm, 3:10 To Yuma on Film4. At 12.10am, Ghost Stories on BBC1. At 12,45am, Nights Of Cabiria on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social #telly
neutral · AI labelView post →I second THE FALL GUY, it’s an under-appreciated but wildly entertaining & hilarious action flick. F1: THE MOVIE is also extremely fun & rewatchable. THE WOMAN KING is an Oscar-quality film that’s also exciting & full of fabulous action. THE LOST CITY is stupid-fun & highly rewatchable.
positive · AI labelView post →Released on this day in 2022,The Woman King tells an amazing story of strength, honor, bravery, and loyalty in a beautiful film Any best of career performances in this one?You decide at www.sassawards.com Cast list in the comments #sassawards #repost #moviesky #filmsky #actorsky #directorsky

neutral · AI labelView post →2025 watch #373: G20 (2025) Viola Davis proved she can carry an action movie in The Woman King. The plot to this feels very specific to 2025, with terrorist crypto bros and deepfakes.
neutral · AI labelView post →She's a martial artist. She was in "The Woman King", "Black Widow (extra) and other stuff. She's a sista and she's a beast lol. She just had debut lead role in a movie called" Jade." Check it out. Having a Black woman enter the action movie genre is something needed. And she's damn good.
neutral · AI labelView post →Loved her in that film and in The Woman King
neutral · AI labelView post →Only two instances I've gone are The Woman King (which was pretty good and the 4DX didn't diminish it) and Alien: Romulus (which was a terrible movie but a fun 4DX experience, but I can't say it made the movie any better)
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched ’The Woman King’. Such a good movie! It’s a shame it got paid dust at the theaters.
positive · AI labelView post →The Woman King is my favorite movie. I think I’ve watched it 100Xs this year
positive · AI labelView post →Also, let's remember the movie literally named The Woman King.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm in the apparent minority that liked the second Pacific Rim movie, and that would have spun off into an ongoing series with him as the star if it had done better. The Woman King was also great. I think Boyega has the juice, he's mostly had bad luck so far
