Writer-director Ryan Coogler's feature film debut - which comes with glowing, award-winning stamps from both Sundance and Cannes - arrives hot on the heals of the controversial Zimmerman verdict and a year in which mass shootings in places once thought unfathomable forced America to look in the mirror when it comes to its obsession with guns. Its remarkable timing may strike a raw nerve, but that's why the movie is so necessary.
