One Night In Miami is a classic story of four legendary friends meeting together and in just one night making some strange decision to change the world for good. It also the journey of Cassius Clay becoming Muhammad Ali and why black people in America were opting for Islam rather than staying Christian. It also portrays the 1960s Racism ridden society where Negros were still not allowed to enter any white people's house. That Famous Night of 1964 when Cassius Clay became the world champion and spent the night with his friends Malcolm X, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown. The story revolves around that one night and how it changed the thought process of all three friends. Potent but nuanced direction (a great debut by Regina King). Smart and witty screenplay by Kemp Powers. Kingsley Ben-Adir as Malcolm X, Eli Gore as Cassius Clay, Aldis Hodge as Jim Brown, and Leslie Odom Jr.as Sam Cooke all deeply inhabit their characters.
