It is worth watching


The movie is quite realistic and and a great addition to the genre. There are some violent and sexual scenes. Not for children.

Thanks for the recommendation. The description makes it sound hamfisted like a movie Oprah would gush over so I was initially hesitant.

I thought it was below average. Nothing new here. Even if "Skin" is based on a true story, "American History X" tells the same thing, but in a far more cinematic and interesting way.

Agreed. Skin has even worse mixed messaging that AMX if you can believe it, due to the glorification of Antifa, SPLC and Socialists of America hailed as altruistic heroes.

Sounds like they also fattened up the fictional version of his real-life love interest, pushing more of their obese-acceptance propaganda.
