Ryan Coogler’s upcoming vampire flick Sinners has set an impressive new record.
Featuring Michael B Jordan in a dual role as brothers Smoke and Stack, the movie unfolds in 1930s Mississippi, with these characters abandoning the bustle of Chicago to return home to Clarksdale and establish their very own blues tavern.
Following some requests for help to set things up, the grand opening is disrupted by unanticipated guests who go to great lengths to force their way into the business.
As a devoted fan, I can’t contain my excitement for “Sinners,” set to hit cinemas tomorrow! It has just surpassed Ryan Coogler’s previous records by securing an outstanding 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on an impressive 107 reviews at the time of writing. This incredible achievement positions “Sinners” as his highest-rated film to date!
In addition to the critical acclaim for Ryan Coogler’s other films, both Black Panther (released in 2018) and its 2022 sequel, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, have also earned high praise. The original film garnered a 96% rating, while the 2022 sequel currently holds an 84% score.
Creed holds a 95% rating, and Fruitvale Station landed at 94%.
It is worth noting that Hailee Steinfeld’s and Jack O’Connell’s most critically acclaimed film according to Rotten Tomatoes is also the one titled “Sinners.
Michael B. Jordan’s top-rated live-action film is his best-ranked work overall; however, his highest-ranked movie in general is the 2013 DC animation “Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox,” which boasts a flawless 100% rating from six reviews.
