Johnny H Brilliant movie! Strange, gripping and keeps you there for the entirety Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/05/25 Full Review Tricia K Why this film doesn't have a higher tomato score is confusing and perhaps only because critics and audiences were judging it against the book. As a film in and of itself itself it is powerful and engaging from start to finish. The story as told by the film is unique especially for the time it was made, and just in general it is a unique story of slavery the south and the north and its promise of freedom colliding with one another. Beah Richards' performance is the stuff of greatness, and the foundation of all the great performances, where a lineage of actors mirrors the lineage of the characters in the film, and surely each actors ancestors were speaking through them telling us what happened, at the level of both the individual and the collective. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/03/25 Full Review Ivster t So this was a pretty good film..I think the comments pertaining to "worthless to watch" derived from that person probably being a "white trash American snob" who either had their feelings hurt or are an active clan member.. Either or..but it was a watchable film Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Rosana B Um filme de drama psicológico gótico, com direito a poltergeist, amo, e a dor da escravidão, nos flashbacks sombrios e doloridos… Uma pena não ter recebido os créditos que merecia, apesar do elogio da crítica especializada, ficou pouco no cinema e arrecadou menos ainda, e levou Oprah a depressão com o fracasso... "É perigoso amar tanto assim, o melhor é amar tudo só um pouquinho, assim, se ela partir, fugir ou for roubada, talvez ainda lhe sobre um pouco de amor." "Amor fraco não é amor" Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/31/24 Full Review Jerod S Portions of Beloved gave chilling insight to slavery and all the things that come with it. Other parts felt like Jodie Foster in Nell. Other parts seemed to be a rabbit trail that took our eyes off Oprah's family and the central action of the story. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/23/23 Full Review Steve D Fans of the book will love it but the story has never worked for me.
