This is an all around great production. Two of the best career performances by Forest Whitaker and Vincent D'Onofrio.
-
Apr 26, 2022
I would have rated this one much higher but there is too much time allotted to dramatizing and preaching civil rights issue(s) and too much time ignoring the blatant racism, in particular antisemitsm, of the Nation of Islam.

Apart from the main storyline the side stories didn't convince me. For instance, the Stella and Ernie story lack of authenticity, could have been done better.

I really wanted to like it - mostly because I think Forest Whitaker is one of the greatest actors of his generation. The problem none of the things in this story related to Bumpy Johnson, with the exception of him getting out of prison - actually happened. Italians were not infringing on his territory. He went away on a heroin charge, but in the show he claims heroin wasn't an issue when he went to prison. Bumpy was a bad bad dude, but the show whitewashes his actual life and makes him into some sort of a chivalrous, compassionate hero when he absolutely wasn't.

This show's an odd duck for me because it intersperses fiction with real life events, partially historic while partially fabricated; The real life Bumpy Johnson hated white people and the Italian mafia hated black people so you have to take this story with a grain of salt, but if you suspend your disbelief and accept this manufactured drama of a black criminal organization working with the Italian mafia then you'll get to enjoy wonderful performances from Forest Whitaker, Vincent D'Onofrio, Nigel Thatch as Malcolm X, and Giancarlo Esposito playing a silver-tongued congressman guiling his way through DC politics, social issues, and representing Harlem.
