Judas and the Black Messiah (2021) 6.5/8 Good movie. Follows an FBI informant as he infiltrates the Illinois Chapter of the Black Panthers led by Fred Hampton. Great acting, good story that I only knew a little bit about. Only complaints would be that they kind of sugar coated the Black Panther party, focusing mostly on the good they did in the community and ignoring a lot of the violent acts and I thought the story might have come across better if they had used younger actors. Most of the characters were in their late teens and early 20's during the events of the movie, but the actors are obviously much older. Knowing that the FBI and particularly Hoover was so focused on basically a group of kids might change the impact of the movie.
Into the Storm (2014) 4/8 Disaster movie about a series of deadly tornadoes that unexpectedly tears apart a small town during the local high school graduation. Some of the movie was a found footage style, probably considered low budget for this type of movie, but overall it wasn't terrible.
