My husband and I went to see SINNERS last night in Danbury, CT. I’ve been wanting to see it again in a theater (I saw it a year ago when it first opened, but my husband hadn’t seen it). There weren’t even 10 people in a huge theater, and it was the only showing yesterday.

Feb 3, 2026 16:59It’s one of those movies with significant scenes that come in the middle of, and after, the credits; I had to tell a guy sitting in the row in front of us not to leave, that he was missing some important scenes.
(he stayed for the first bit, but not the ending one)
3/6
A friend told me something about vampires I hadn’t known when I first saw the movie--which is that they have to be invited in—that I was able to tell my husband before the movie started. This made a lot of the film make more sense than when I first saw it.
4/6
It’s a magnificent movie and it’s astonishing to me how many people I tell I thought it was great say “it’s not my genre” and won’t see it.
It’s entirely its own genre!!!!
It’s an amalgam of genres, and American history, and film stuff, and music. I mean, it’s got an incredible score.
5/6
SINNERS is even more "of the moment" today than it was when it opened in January 2025. See it in a theater if you can. If you watch it at home, turn off your other devices and pay full attention.
This is a movie for people of all ages. My husband and I are in our 70s.
