Holy crap, I've never seen such negative reviews for a Scorsese movie. Roaper saying he should kill himself was especially brutal. And come on, De Niro's worst performance since Dirty Grandpa? Now they're just being rude.

The real life story is tragic beyond belief.
Itβs a sad thing to watch, Iβm sure.

Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann was a difficult book to read because of all the injustice to the Osage people and victims especially.

I wonder if there were Marvel/CBM fans who had been rooting for this to fail.

A rather racist and sweeping generalization of white men in the first paragraph of this review. I'd say throughout history throughout the globe there are these types of men of all different races and ethnicities. A white men wrote and directed this film. Can he be trusted to tell the story? Time and time again throughout history, the white man has proven he cannot be trusted. In Martin Scorsese's twenty-sixth film "Killers of the Flower Moon," he shows us another staggering real-life example of that very warning. The legendary director's magnificent epic traverses several years in the 1920s to tell the story of the wealthy members of the Osage Nation who discovered a massive oil well on their Oklahoma land β and as a result found themselves victim to a deceitful murder plot designed to put every dime in the hands of entitled white men.www.slashfilm.com/1291931/killers-of-the-flower-moon-review/

Not trusting a word they say. I don't intend to when it's professional critics let alone when it's Joe Schmoe from Joe Schmoe off the street.com (I think I got that right).

Obviously the movie will have to come out before it can be judged, but movies like this also give me the sense of falling into white-savior territory. In any event, much as I love Scorsese and his films (just watched Who's That Knocking at My Door last night), non-Indigenous creators in the writing room is still the trend. White creators still control the narrative, even with sympathies shifting.

"Get whitey" is the mantra-that's the reason the movie was greenlit. To demonize whites.
This is agtiprop. It is designed to a) demoralize whites and b) anger non-whites against whites.
Scorsese took the knee back in the 70s as the cuck in the backseat of Taxi Driver, driven to madness by his wife's infidelity with a black man.

I was sure Leonardo di Caprio was going to play the cop sent by the Federal Government to investigate the murders, since the local police wasn't doing anything. Instead it looks like he plays the husband of the main Native woman.

If he truly thinks that "the white man" is much less trustworthy than the black man, the brown man or the "yellow" man, or than women of any colour for that matter, he knows nothing of human nature and even less of human history.
