The characters in the movie was good; it was more like a 3 acts type thing: kid, teen & adult. (of the kid's life)
First two acts were legit; Mahershala Ali played the part well. I just didn't think it was that epic. He played a gangster but the fact it was only 1/3 the movie, I personally didn't think it was anything beyond his acting capabilities, even though we saw him mostly in suits from House of Cards. Naomie Harris was meh, didn't think it was worthy of a nominations.
The 3rd part for me was like wtf. I wasn't able to connect with the last act. There are also some gay shit ( and i don't mean it in a fagg*t way 'no pun intended' *you have watched the movie)
I didn't think the ending was good at all and the characterization did not flow well at the end.

The movie was set up in a way to pander to Oscar voters. A drama about a struggling minority. It's the same reason La La Land was hyped at the Oscars as well. They're films that critics and Oscar judges understand, but too artsy and pretentious for the average moviegoer.
