Trey reviews Ryan Coogler’s Sinners: a $100-million genre-bending vampire western horror musical set in 1930s Mississippi. It’s Coogler’s boldest, weirdest, and most ambitious film to date, blending myth, legacy, identity, and the cost of assimilation into a chaotic cinematic experiment. Trey unpacks the film’s anti-genre intentions, its Faustian themes, its wild tonal swings, and the standout performances from Michael B. Jordan and breakout star Miles Caton. Is it a masterpiece? A mess? Both? This is a conflicted breakdown of a movie that might not work...but absolutely demands to be seen.(00:00) Ryan Coogler(01:26) Non-Major Spoiler Review(02:03) What Works(08:24) What Struggles(12:49) The Extra Credits of Sinners(14:56) Final Thoughts
