I enjoyed Last Black Man in SF more than Blindspotting! I mostly just thought the musical elements were a bit cheesy and not my thing. Enjoyed it other than that though.

Yeah tbf on reflection it probably handles the subject matter as well as if not better then Blindspotting it's just that i enjoyed the latter a lot more. I'm by no means a musical fan but somehow i thought those elements worked really well. I watched LBMISF full of expectation unlike Blindspotting which i'd heard nothing about before so maybe that changed things. We're thinking about getting a projector to make up for lost cinema time so i'll be keen to watch LBMISF (as no one calls it) on the big screen as it looked amazing.
Supposedly Little Men is another highly rated movie covering gentrification but i only managed 20 minutes before giving up. Maybe i should give it another go.

I should really make more effort to go watch Akira but just not the right time for me atm.
Continuing my Now TV dredge;
Last black man in SF - didn't love it as much as i hoped but strong lead performances and visually great to look at. For a commentary on US gentrification Blindspotting is a tough act to follow.
Driveways - Lovely movie with a well crafted cast. Who knew Sheriff Teasle from First Blood could be such a nice guy. Would recommend.
