"Online Outrage Exposes Double Standards in Coverage of 'Sinners' Box Office Success"

Social media and celebrity voices are echoing criticism regarding the media's coverage of the horror film "Sinners" after its successful opening weekend. Directed by Ryan Coogler, the film earned $45.6 million domestically, outperforming expectations of $35 million and dethroning "A Minecraft Movie." Critics have lauded "Sinners," with it boasting a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an 84 on Metacritic, marking it as a significant entry for 2025. Yet, some outlets minimize this success, prompting backlash over perceived bias against a Black creator and cast.
