I was told that if I don't like or watch the Woman King I am a racist. Well, I am NOT a racist, but beccuse I was already labled as one for not seeing this movie, I will NOT buy, rent or see this movie at all. And my life will go on unperturbed and missing nothing from WOKE Hollywood.

I wouldn’t have as much of a problem with this film if it didn’t actively try to rewrite history in the name of having a “strong female lead” while claiming to tell the history of this tribe.
What’s the truth you may ask?
Well, the truth is this: The so called “Woman King” (aka Queen???) sold her own people into slavery.

I enjoyed the spectacle and story of this movie. And I hope people see the truths in this movie about slavery, and those who took part and profited from it. Also, I hope this and other movies from and about people of color shows what has been missed/neglected for so many years as far as talent, stories and the scope of their history due to racism and just plain ignorance.

Great performances, great action (although there are only a couple of fight scenes, they are excellent and really stand out). For once, a movie that actually pushes the boundaries of PG-13 rather than just giving us bloodless action. The script is pretty good, although those saying they got the history completely wrong clearly haven’t seen the movie or read about the actual history. Overall, very worth a watch!

As for the film, it’s an enjoyable swashbuckling historical epic with fantastic performances. It’s the “women of color killing white slave-owners” scene that has their torn-up boxers in a bunch. Great film. Highly recommend.

This film completely ignored the role of this particular African tribe in trade & promotion of slavery. They captured and sold black slaves, and were not some kind of admirable folks in any shape or form as portrayed by this woke-garbage trash film trying to revise actual history. What an insult to the actual victims and disregard of their suffering by completely white-washing the violence committed against them by the Dahomey kingdom in 1800s.

This is a documentary, about as much as Black Panther is a documentary -it’s not. This is entertainment. There are some great performances. I purchased the movie because if its position in the history of filmaking casting black women heroically. I grew up watching westerns, cowboys and indians. The indians didn’t get to write the story. Conversely, The history of africans is often written by europeans The 1963 version of Cleopatra is not an historic documentary. But no one complains about the historic inaccuracies. For the w020 version of Mulan the colonist had no criticism. Mel Gibson”s Apocalypto didnt cause issue about historic inaccuracy. But Mulan was not a black woman and Apocalypto was not about africans. Buy this movie. the only thing colonists understand: it’s the power of the dollar (mammon). Why is the Apple rating unmatched to rotten tomatoes? Because racist live to torpedo black art. Every POC should be buying this film! Having said this: Will Smiths movies should be boycotted: he is a thug, still.

The truth of Dahomey tribe was NOT portrayed correctly in this movie. You think it’s inspirational that the women army stood up against the white man and wanted their freedom? History shows that actually never happened. This tribe was 100% responsible for slave trade and would kill and rape their own people and sell them off and fact, 1/5 of African Americans in America ancestors were originally shipped up here BECAUSE of them. They murdered and raped your ancestors, used them for an army and gathered powerful weaponry to kill other villages. How Viola David and John Boyega could support this movie is beyond me. I’d recommend to spread spread awareness of this Woke brainwash movie and please look into the true history yourself. Learn the facts and make a smart reasonable decision before watching or purchasing this movie.

The actual tribe was one of the worst ones when it came to the slave trade, even after slavery was being abolished here they were still trying to sell their own people to different countries. This movie is making a mockery of what actually happened, which is closer to a horror story they shouldn’t be honored.

In 1727, Dahomey conquered the Kingdom of Hueda, who lived along the coast, and took control of the port city of Ouidah, inaugurating its active participation in the Atlantic slave trade. Historians estimated that nearly one million enslaved Africans were put on ships to the Americas in Ouidah between 1659 and 1863. Did they not think people would research about the Dahomey! Just appalling!

First, they have a word for "woman king". That word is "queen". Shocking, I know. Nanisca is portrayed as anti-slavery, when in reality, the Agojie warriors had no moral qualms about enslaving neighboring tribes and profiting from the African slave trade. The filmmakers intentionally misrepresented a kingdom that trafficked tens of thousands of slaves themselves. Characters blame enslavement in Dahomey on the economic meddling of white traders although it was well-established in West Africa before the Europeans got involved. This practice continued until the British Empire ended the slave trade in the region. There’s a difference between stretching the truth and presenting the opposite of it. Sadly, many will watch this thinking it’s history. It’s not. It more woke Hollywood fiction.
