Trivia
On February 5, 2018, it was announced that Kian Lawley had been fired from the film because of a resurfaced video that showed him using racially offensive slurs. On April 3, 2018, it was announced that KJ Apa had been cast to replace him. Therefore, some scenes had to be re-shot.

Goofs
When they're driving in King's car, the time on the clock visible on the dash when King looks back at Starr varies each time it's seen, with minutes passing when one sentence is spoken, and then the last sentence happens 10 minutes before the last but one sentence.

Quotes
Maverick 'Mav' Carter: [from the trailer] I didn't name you Starr by accident.

Crazy credits
At the beginning and the end of the movie, the title is shown with the letters T, H, U and G visible.

7/10

The book was so much better.

First off, the book was way better. It provides way more detail than the movie did, and I feel you should read the book first, gather way more information then the movies gives, and then watch the movie. This was a good movie, but I feel the editing was a little choppy and was quite basic. Amandla Stenberg absolutely slayed the roll though. She did an amazing job, and I haven't watched a movie with her in it that I didn't like. She's incredible. The movie didn't provide as much detail as the book, as I said above, so people did get more of the Black Lives Matter side out of the movie. You hear more from a black and a white cop in the book, so it was well done, giving two sides. All in all, the movie was good, but the book was way better. I highly recommend that you read the book before you watch the movie.
