Sinners is the best movie of 2025, period
It probably sounds silly, but it's kind of a red flag for me when someone who otherwise enjoys action/horror dislikes Sinners (2025). ("Y'all klan?")
Now, I'd say it's a pink flag for me if someone insists Sinners is "over-hyped" or "over-rated." That suggests some issues, but manageable issues.
