The most impressive aspect of this film is the honest and natural performances given by the on-screen duo.

In addition to the cast being delightfully diverse this time around, the film was just loosely-plotted and action-packed enough to keep a casual fan like myself entertained. While I do agree that the writing of Cole left much to be desired for an original character thrust into a preconceived universe, none of the characters seemed particularly fleshed out in terms of personality; however, I think that's to be expected when you're watching a film literally inspired by a video game.

Given a choice between a man and a mountain, it’s safer to choose the mountain.

Magnolia focuses on how one’s childhood and trauma relate to their confidence and self.

I can say without question, that this is the first movie I’ve ever seen where art imitates life so much that I could 100% identify with it on a personal level. The predominately Black cast of characters are people with hopes, dreams, fears, and ambitions.

By undermining the appeal and credibility of black characters, the show compromises the very idea of diversity and representation it sets to promote.
