Marshall | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

It's the perfect reminder that our real heroes don't wear superhero capes, but rather judges' robes. Will Boseman's "Black Panther" inspire a new generation to research Marshall?

Marshall wants to be a bold story of the search for equality while also being a very human profile of a man who would become a legend. Most of the time, the film finds that balance.

This real-life case makes for an entertaining courtroom drama that nonetheless reduces Marshall to the level of Perry Mason and consigns to the end credits his greater triumphs arguing Brown vs. Board of Education and other landmark civil rights cases.

This film isn't just a biopic. And it's not preachy. It just presents the facts through a courtroom case based on race. It's courtroom drama and you become part of the jury.

Anyone expecting a substantive picture about Marshall is just going to have to lower their expectations...
