AFTER 34 MINUTES full spoiler review

It's another BOYS NIGHT as Ian, Liam, and Ethan are talking about the Amazon Prime original film (and heavily touted Oscar contender), "One Night In Miami" It's been nominated for THREE Golden Globes but what did we think about it?  What parts worked?  What parts didn't?  It was originally a play, how did it transfer over to the big screen? What do we know about the 4 men?  This is Regina King's debut, how did she make this happen? Does a film need pretty cinematography to be powerful? Will Ian ever be able to stop confusing Leslie Odom Jr with NBA star Lamar Odom?  We answer all these questions and more in our "See It or Skip It" review of One Night in Miami. and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
