i liked the movie BUT i feel like it was too short, also the thing is that the movie starts with Kofi sayin she wanted to leave the island, not because of red cargo but because she wanted to see the world, even when she went to live with Deni she wanted to leave someday, it was her dream and at the end her reason to stay is her kid but that doesn't changes her dream... we didn't even get to see that, is she truly happy on the island? did she got to understand why Deni loved the island so much? just as far as we know she's now fearless of the red cargo's boss... her character was amazing but it remained superficial. Now what happened with the island? there's always the day after... the movie ends with Kofi telling her daugther a story about how things are different, I wanted to know :c they probably kept working for red cargo but not everyday, they just got a little bit of their time back to enjoy themselves on sundays. At the end they defeated the boss to earn that and Deni was the one who made that possible, not because he died but because he did the concert after being threatened.
Those are really good points. Thanks for bringing them. I feel like part of this movie is about the struggle for freedom and self determitation of traditional peoples from the global south (and the working class in general) against imperialism and about trying to restore a sense of community and individuality instead of the individualism and alienation that are imposed by capitalism. Kofi was oppresed and exploited in Guava and wanted to leave it looking for freedom. This particular scene where they sing This is America shows us that wherever there is capitalism there is exploitation, oppression and destruction, so leaving the Island wouldn't solve the problem. By the end of the movie, Kofi realizes that true freedom can only be achieved collectively and learns to love the Island and it's people. I like to think that the end of the movie was only the beginning of a revolution, where the people of Guava would organize and fight for complete liberation and dignity. That's just my interpretation though. I also wish they had more time to explore Kofi, she's such a great character. I see her as the pessimism of the intellect and Deni as the optimism of the will. Anyway, sorry about the long text, thanks for reading it, I hope all your dreams come true💚
@@alvarorezende1568 whoa I never thought of it like that, it really makes sense, the boss was not the problem... it was capitalism, thanks for showing me another point of view
The movie was confusing. The story was good but it felt like it couldn’t decide what genre it wanted to be. At times it felt like a drama, others it felt like a comedy. There’s nothing wrong with a dramatic comedy; however, this movie didn’t pull it off too well. Don’t get me wrong it’s still an excellent watch and I highly recommend it, I just saw some problems and didn’t know where else to voice them.
@@jaylenbutler4176 he released every song in guava Island almost a year before guava Island came out. However one of those songs appeared on his recent album, but he had released it prior. The original comment is incorrect
Its dope how he just glides across the ground sometimes
He's otherworldly.
I mean, just look at 1:54 , that's all the proof you need.
Yeah, that's one of his signature moves. I've never seen anyone else do it quite like that. Took me awhile to learn how to do it
1:57 the most poetic words ever spoken
😂
😂 true
i love that he's so open with his body
I love how they use the stuff around them to make beats
As someone from Puerto Rico, this movie resonated with me on various levels.
I like the moves he had in this one more than the one in his popular video
Yeah same here. Also the filming style, esp. the variety of angles, really compliments his movements and the other dancers.
yes its 2.0 this one went harder
When he said 😮 i felt that....
Notice how the guy picks up the phone just before glover says the line "this a cellie that's a tool"
This is the perfect way to add these kind of songs in a movie

Lowkey felt like a disney movie to me. That's dope tho
It’s a musical
That's point gambino is just weird
@@kei7540 nah, it was just not as great as other stuff he has done, weird is not equal to not great, like the ending was missing
sameee, I just posted a comment with my opinion on this vid cause I wanted to voice my thoughts.
this scene in particular was my favorite though.
Ai mano ele é simplesmente incrível não tem com
Mano, essa versão é incrível. ❤
This scene is amazing
O cara fez história
1:47 reminds me of US
this version goes so insanely hard
It’s funny how many songs from the movie he officially dropped years after this movie came out. It’s like he thinks 5 years in advance
Counter Culture huh? I’m confused I thought this came out last year. I’m not picking or anything I’m really lost. Can you explain

0:55 how did they fall so softly
It mostly likely a cut to them already on the floor just barely falling down
Yayyyy thanks for uploading
You are welcome (De nada)
this is a sad little movie
1:17 slick
O mais importante era o diálogo que antecede
After watching the movie. I appreciate this more.😂🤝🏾🔥😭

Fiquei esperando Redbone mas não teve no filme.

The most unrealistic aspect of this video is being able to look away from Glover when he's performing.
Wtf the suns he made 😂😂😂
This is America filmed in Cuba I think 😅
