A24 stays pumping out gem after gem, and Sing Singis no exception. In this prison-set friendship drama inspired by a true story, Colman Domingo leads an impeccable cast, many of whom were formerly incarcerated and play versions of themselves. Directed by Greg Kwedar, Sing Singis "spiritually and visually luminous," notes Mashable's Siddhant Adlakha in his review out of SXSW. He dubbed it one of 2024's most powerful works.

What is Sing Singabout?

Imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit, John "Divine G" Whitfield (Domingo) finds purpose in the prison’s RTA program (Rehabilitation Through the Arts) — particularly by acting in a theatre group with the other prisoners. This includes the reluctant, closed-off Clarence "Divine Eye" Maclin. Inspired by the true story of an unlikely friendship, Sing Singis ultimately about "finding hope and catharsis through creation, and the difficulties therein.

"For the men of Sing Sing, art becomes both refuge and rebellion, presented not only as a coping mechanism for incarceration, but a therapeutic alternative. The result is a heartrending, visually enrapturing balm for the soul," writes Adlakha.

Is Sing Singworth watching?

"Sing Sing is a beautiful, multifaceted movie that not only draws from the real lives of its ensemble, but centers each of their stories and personalities with a commitment to realism, which Kwedar and cinematographer Pat Scola ensure in immensely thoughtful ways," Mashable's reviewer writes, calling it "one of the best modern films about acting."

Critics and audiences alike are united in their praise of Sing Sing. The A24 drama currently holds a 97 percent critic rating and audience rating at Rotten Tomatoes, making it certified fresh. It comes as no surprise that Domingo's performance was celebrated with nominations for Best Actor at the Golden Globes, SAG Awards, Critics Choice Awards, and Oscars. He ultimately lost out to Adrien Brody (The Brutalist) and Timothée Chalamet (A Complete Unknown), but the performances of the entireSing Singensemble are incredible across the board.
