Heartbreaking true story. I wasn't aware of anything about this film, I didn't even knew that this was about a true story and what a tragic story! Michael B. Jordan gives a great and heartfelt performance as Oscar Grant, a twenty two year old who was murdered in Fruitvale Station on his way home after New Years Eve celebrations. Oscar was a troubled young man that was trying to put his life together, he was a devoted father who loved his girlfriend and family. He wasn't counting on the fact that his night was going to end up the way it did. Devastating. Interesting that without knowing, I see this film on the day that makes five years that this young man passed away. R.I.P. Oscar Grant

While watching this film was undoubtedly a very emotional experience, I once again can't help but to be bothered by the deviance from the facts. Large parts of the end of the movie are either disputed or unknown. Whole scenes in the film were either made up or actually happened to other people in the family. In a weird kind of way this film reminds me of the trickery that is used in the tv show Ghost Hunters . In that show the hosts pretend to question some facts of their case so that they can gain some kind of credibility with the audience. In this movie the lead character has some kind of unflattering details revealed about his life so that we can be more sympathetic towards him later. In my eyes that really diminishes the potential power of the film. follow me at https://IHateBadMovies.com

A very good film about an upsetting true event.

Michael B. Jordan (Oscar) nails it in the lead role, he gives an impressive portrayal. There are a few other good performances, the most notable to me being from the excellent Octavia Spencer (Wanda) - yet to see a bad showing from her. Melonie Diaz More

I never saw its teaser, nor read its synopsis, but straight went to see it. And I kind of not satisfied for the first hour of the movie. I just wondered what was the movies' idea to fulfill the viewer's desire. Right away I knew it was not an entertainer, then it must highlight something or give a m More
