A Bright Future
     Bright directed by David Ayer, was a film like no other. The film stood for something more than just an entertaining film. Star actor, Will Smith, portrayed the role of a police officer in the future. The setting of the movie was well into the future, in a time where "Alien" type people lives with humans. The part that stood for more was how the "Aliens" were supposed to be how blacks were treated years ago. Now that you have a background of the movie lets dive right into this. 
     This metaphor to real life was extremely successful in getting their message across. There are still issues today that are being worked on by some of society, and that is the treatment of black people. When watching this thriller/ sci-fi movie, if you didn't understand what these "aliens" stood for, then there's a great chance you're not enjoying the film to its fullest. Similar to when blacks first became cops, they were hated more than white cops. The black cops represent the first ever "alien" cop in the movie. Throughout the whole movie, there is symbolism all over the place for how blacks are treated. I believe the movie will do even better after time goes on and more people find out about this movie. 
     Overall, this movie was a great movie and gets my rating of an 8.5/10. The only reason it didn't get a 10/10 was that some scenes were a little predictable and cheesy. Besides that, it was spot on for the rest of the movie. I highly recommend this to moviegoers that enjoy sci-fi or even thriller movies.
