Judas and the Black Messiah Movie Storyline
Bill O’Neal, a 19-year-old criminal, is apprehended in Chicago in 1968 after trying to steal a vehicle while impersonating a federal officer. FBI Special Agent Roy Mitchell approaches him and offers to remove O’Neal’s charges if he works secretly for the agency. O’Neal is tasked with infiltrating the Black Panther Party (BPP) in Illinois and its leader, Fred Hampton.
Hampton, who seeks to create relationships with rival gangs and militant groups while increasing community outreach via the BPP’s Free Breakfast for Children Program, starts to become close to O’Neal. Hampton’s powerful speechmaking talents would aid in the formation of the Broad Coalition, a multiracial organization. Hampton also has feelings for Deborah Johnson, another BPP member. Mitchell pays O’Neal by giving him information in exchange for money.
Following Hampton’s arrest and imprisonment for accused of stealing $71 in ice cream bars, O’Neal rises through the levels and is appointed to security captain. When the Chicago Police Department and the BPP have a gunfight at the chapter office, O’Neal slips away as the cops bomb the place. O’Neal tries to stop being an informant, outraged that he might have been murdered, but Mitchell refuses.

Judas and the Black Messiah Movie Review
Judas and the Black Messiah bravely goes where Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 shied away from, and it was all the greater for it. The conversation is a razor-sharp blend of ancient lectures and smartness after Mitchell wonders why O’Neal steals automobiles with a badge.
The picture is The Departed in the realm of intelligence, according to Shaka King, who is making his feature film debut. King also delivers on his commitment to present Hampton’s narrative and the BPP’s ideas in an enthralling, gorgeously photographed, and tenderly composed film.
