This movie is just the best ever acted African movie I have watched. What a blend of intelligence and skills. My love for Igozie is like an ocean. I came to U tube after watching this movie on Netflix just so I could leave a written comment/review . I hail you all producers of this Movie. It is a win win for Africa. 10/10 ❤
@@Incogn3gr0e It's funny you should say that because in Dahomey's case it was the French who ended slavery in the kingdom. Guess they were good for something, huh...
@@Incogn3gr0e No Europeans were not colonising Africa as they had no immunity to disease that were common in Africa that Africans were immune to. Europeans would not last longer than a year in Africa.
In fact their king. (played by John Boyega) begged the British to let him carry on the slave trade, After stealing the throne from his brother with the aid of slaver traders that is.
I have never ever cried so much while watching a movie... this is a beautiful, intelligent, well done movie. It does not only teach a lot but also has a very strong message to it.. everyone I recommend this movie 💯 percent... this movie was wonderful.. theirs way too many great words to describe this work of art... This is my first time writing a review about a movie it is definitely a 10/10
IT IS A MOVVVVIIIIIEEEE! Are y’all upset because they weren’t twerking or catering to a man or fighting each other over a man? Of course it’s black dudes that have something to say when black women aren’t fulfilling stereotypes. Kick rocks boys!
First, I didn’t see where it was identified as a true story. Not a single movie out is an accurate depiction - not one. Secondly, speak to the real reason you have issue instead over covering it up like a chicken
Total inaccurate so called history. Just PC bull shit. Nothing is true in this movie. They were major players in the slave trade and responsible for 1000's of dearhs. They are not a bright spot of African history.
Both domestic slavery and the Atlantic slave trade were important to the economy of Dahomey. Men, women, and children captured by Dahomey in wars and slave raids were sold to European slave traders in exchange for various goods such as rifles, gunpowder, textiles, cowry shells, and alcohol.
What a beautiful depiction of the Dahomey, just don't bring up that whole thing about the British having to force them to stop selling slaves (unsuccessfully).
All the men waiting their turn so they can swing and stop it mid swing judt so the woman can then stab them. Worst fighting choreography I have seen in a while
SMH. Fun fact for the trolls and haters: I bet this hypocrites did not know that their "over glorified Vikings" also had something in common with the Dahomey culture? "One of the most enduring components of the Viking image is the notion of freedom-the adventure of a far horizon and all that went with it. But for many, this was an unattainable hope. Let it therefore be clearly stated: The Vikings were slavers, and the kidnapping, sale and forced exploitation of human beings was always a central pillar of their culture." -The Little-Known Role of Slavery in Viking Society an article by Neil Price. Smithsonian magazine August 25, 2020 💯💪🔥🔥🔥I Just finished watching this Amazing film with its beautiful cinematography and story telling. There is Nothing woke about it. I highly recommend it!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You can be sympathetic to the political left and criticize both. I didn't like the romanticised image of vikings and don't like the portrayal of Dahomey either.
Lmao, in trying to call out other people as hypocrites you showed that you are a hypocrite. You whine about the vikings being being violent slavers (which they were) but then turn around and praise a movie that glorifies and washes away the evil done by the dahomey, just because they were black and had female soldiers
I didn't want to start a discussion like this. @terrylewis probably just wanted to criticize the haters who at the same time like similar movies themselves. In my opinion it's annoying but not that bad either to watch these kinds of movies. Regardless whether it's about vikings or an african kingdom.
now she was one of the worst slave traders. And one should not exactly praise a slave trader. so now I don't know if it is politically correct. and king? when will there be a man queen, omg it's as woke as it gets, bad movie.....
In the real world a group of women showing up to confront a group of male warriors would have a different result. It would have been party time! These women would have been making them breakfast by the next morning. It’s Hollywood after all!

Is this bait?
Wasn't Dahomey wicked traders of flesh themselves who would sacrifice hundreds of captured people during festivals?
Yes
it wasn't always like that. & let's not pretend the europeans weren't colonizing most of Africa ✋🏾🙄

"Off brand version of... *BLACK PANTHER."*
Word
Real Life version of Wakanda
Nah. Viola is playing an older shuri
it looks really good. When she says "bring me stronger warriors", I am kinda confused, because her warriors are already lethal enough. :)
They were all wiped out by the French who only lost 6 troops 😂😂😂😂
HAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAAHAHHAHA
this movie is so distorted from real history facts
The British stopped their slave trade and the tribe resisted the ban.
In fact their king. (played by John Boyega) begged the British to let him carry on the slave trade, After stealing the throne from his brother with the aid of slaver traders that is.

Lol
💩
😂woke trash
Lmao, are you crying for a bunch of slave holders
There is so many red flags in the review itself Ik this is satire
Based on :
Wakanda = Dahomey
Dora Milaje = Amazon Dahomey
Based in a fictional world cuz the tribe that the movie is about are the ones that were the slavers
You haven't watched the film have you ?? It shows
it comes in the movie,dont judge before even watching
@@incredibletom7099 don’t get your knowledge from movies bro 🤣
@@itzadam9359 hellz nah, never do that, UNLESS it's Final Destination films, I need all the knowledge I can get from them to escape death 🤣
@@incredibletom7099 The film that turns a man known to history as the silver king into a man wanting to end slavery?
Beautiful movie
This has more fiction in it than a marvel movie.
NO IDIOT THEY REAL AND INFLUENCED THE Dora Milaje
And what's your point??? Who cares, its a powerful movie...GTFOH
@@gjrocknthedreamteam3065 The kingdom didn't free slaves. In fact, it treated slaves horribly.

Agoji are small in numbers and Kingdom Dahomey army was made up of men
Very Nice. Thank you mama AFRICA.

After the festival where they sacrifice people

Svp le film entier

🤣🤣🤣
Just like Wakanda Forever
The reality of this was very different to what happened. Don’t rewrite history
First, I didn’t see where it was identified as a true story. Not a single movie out is an accurate depiction - not one. Secondly, speak to the real reason you have issue instead over covering it up like a chicken
Best movie ever. Bravo!
Big call on best movie ever champ 😂

Before attacking the sound they made yililillilil.... It seems they are summoning the goddess of war.
Woman King: Slave business forever!!! 💰
What a beautiful depiction of the Dahomey, just don't bring up that whole thing about the British having to force them to stop selling slaves (unsuccessfully).
❤
Paul Logan is the woman king
Hold up. Why is she wearing a mohawk? This is Africa not the American northeast!
Movie was mid overated
The Woman King whitewashes African slavery | from Ghezo's resistance to abolition, to Dahomey's use of slavery to harvest palm oil
Black panther wanna be…
