Movie No. 198 (2013): FRUITVALE STATION

Fruitvale Station (2013)
Directort: Ryan Coogler
Cast: Michael B. Jordan, Octavia Spencer

On the first day (or first hour) of 2009, a 22-year-old young African-American who lived in the Bay Area was unjustly shot while having an argument with a police officer at the Fruitvale Station. This film is the dramatization of the events leaving to that incident.

As a film based on a true story, it gives an intimate glimpse of Oscar's complex but troubled psyche as a young father. This is the most notable thing from the movie that's worth the experience of seeing it.

Rating: 3.5/4.0

Date seen: December 30, 2013
