Critics Consensus: A raucous capitalist critique, I Love Boosters careens through the carefully-controlled chaos of writer-director Boots Riley's imagination to deliver a comedy that's as funny as it is thought-provoking.

Boots Riley movie is a bit too weird for mainstream audiences
Other news: Water wet
I saw this coming. If you’re not down for some of boots, Riley’s rambunctious scenes and sometimes out of place character moments than the film might lose you.
