Reviews:

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 (Sophina) is notable, too.

The story is told in a straightforward but still highly meaningful way, there are a couple of times where you could argue it’s too on the nose but even then it still gave me that dreadful feeling in the pit of my stomach. The ending, meanwhile, is tough to forget due to Spencer’s performance.

‘Fruitvale Station’ is well worth a watch.

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 message. Till the beginning of the end, I thought the same way. Then my perspective changed, actually it changed my previous stance about all the earlier narration.

**”I know y’all are upset, but got to lift him up.
Let’s keep him lifted up.”**

After witnessing the crucial last scene, I was stunned by the incident that was portrayed in the movie. Realized all the initial developments were got meaning in this part of the movie. So I came to know it was based on the real incident. First of all it was not a person’s whole biography, though it is told from his critical time of life. The incident can be viewed in two ways. The fight definitely took place on the sub-way, it was not the Oscar Grant’s (lead man) fault. But still the consequences are expected, especially on the new year’s eve the alert against violence cannot be negligible by the law. But, what cops did was the over reaction to the situation.

Such incidents happen in every country and many of them won’t come into the lights. I’m glad about this movie, because it kind of creates awareness of such events. Hats off to all the cast and crew who brought it into the silver screen and now the whole world can know the truth. A must see movie among the 2013 releases.

The Police are Idiots
Ok, I watched this film a few times and loved it. It really showed the TRUTH about some of the POLICEMEN. (NOT ALL OF THEM) One of my favourite parts was when he called his grandmother up on his cellphone. Then she had her talk to a girl in the grocery store on how to cook fish. It was a great part because it also showed how close he really was to his family.

A glimpse inside the life of Oscar Grant III
Fruitvale Station doesn’t make the outcome of its story surprising; it flat out tells you in the beginning Oscar Grant’s fate by showing you cell-phone footage from News Years Day 2009, when Oscar Grant was fatally shot at the Fruitvale Bay Area Rapid Transit station in Oakland, California. The cell-phone video is pretty low-quality, but we can still see and hear what is going on. A group of young men are lined up against the wall by three or so police officers after fighting on a crowded train. Passersby and observers are yelling at the cops, repeatedly saying they did nothing wrong, and we can hear Grant screaming but not fighting back. The next thing we hear is a gunshot and the entire crowd groan and scream. It’s a frightening opening to a frightening film.

On the morning of News Years Eve 2008, Oscar Grant wakes up with the mindset to do right. A convicted felon, but a determined one at that, he plans to give his girlfriend Sophina all the support and love she needs, their daughter all the love and attention she needs, and her mother (Octavia Spencer) the birthday party she deserves. After being fired from his job at a supermarket, he seriously contemplates selling marijuana on the streets of Oakland, but what’s stopping him is the well-being of his family.

Grant goes about his day regularly, talking to a friend at the supermarket, helping a customer who doesn’t know one thing about fish-fry, calling his grandma who knows a lot about fish-fries, and concludes the day by hanging out downtown with a group of friends celebrating the new year. We get a sense of just how impacting he was to his friends, family, and people that were just mere acquaintances of his. He helps out a man’s pregnant wife downtown by convincing the shop owner to allow her to use the restroom. When she goes, the man and him make small talk and the man gives him his business card. We see in these scenes just how simple situations like this made people aware of the niceness and true character that Grant possessed.

Michael B. Jordan plays Grant with the true humanity and power necessary to make a character like this work. Perhaps I’m still hungover on emotion and sadness from the film – although I doubt it – but it would be fair and completely justified to give Jordan and Oscar nod for his portrayal of Grant. He is a layered soul in this film, on one hand a convict and a known offender, but on the other, a true human spirit, sometimes immature, sometimes contradictory, but invaluably loving and compassionate to his friends and family. Almost every scene in Fruitvale Station is heartbreaking to some degree, whether it’s when Grant tries to help a dog after being hit by a car, or when he reassuringly tells his daughter they will hang out on New Years Day at Chuck-E-Cheese, buy a ton of tokens, play every game, and eat pizza together.

When the inevitable happens, and the polarizing gunshot is heard, I felt – not saw, felt – a large sense of despair and a silence of dread consume the entire theater I was in (occupied of about fifteen people). It was subtle, but unmistakable. Some clearly weren’t prepared for this story to pack such an emotional punch in velvet gloves, some probably didn’t even know who Oscar Grant was and saw this film because it looked intriguing, and some were just trying to cope with what they just saw. I heard a mixture of gasps, sobs, and stray comments as I sat with tears filling my eyes. As I write this review, a few hours after seeing it, I can only produce a few more tears as I continue writing about it. The last thing I want to be is sappy and overly sentimental, but when a film reaches this kind of emotional resonance with a viewer, it needs to be noted.

Director Ryan Coogler makes Fruitvale Station more than a film or a basic dramatization, but an event in itself, with naturalistic writing, incredible acting in the foreground, brutally honest hardships in life, and gorgeous wide-shots, often including the beautiful cinematography by Rachel Morrison. Coogler’s maturity is even accentuates as he doesn’t make the accusation that Grant’s death was racial in any way. He leaves that up to us to decide, but even walking out of the film, I wasn’t really thinking about that. I was thinking about how an innocent life was lost, and how many others have likely suffered the same fate.

While the entire film is captured as if the viewer is a voyeur, or a fly-on-the-wall, the scenes at the train station take on a special kind of observant focus. We are almost a passenger on this train, in an unblinking, but often foggy and unfocused view of a situation that gets out of hand and ends with a senseless death of an innocent man. While the scene of violence is pretty brief, and features only one gunshot, the echoing and unnerving shot that it is, it reminds us that sometimes one shot in film can be equally as haunting as several rounds of ammunition being unloaded at one time. What follows this scene are some of the most emotional scenes of the year and they are handled excellently.

Fruitvale Station is a triumph and undoubtedly one of the saddest, but most important films of 2013. Like its protagonist, even at eighty-five minutes, the event may be long-gone, but it’s not forgotten.
