'The Six Triple Eight' review: Kerry Washington rescues Tyler Perry's war drama

Summary

Nutrition label

78% Informative

The Six Triple Eight is about the U.S. only World War II Army Corps made up predominantly of Black women.

Kerry Washington leads an impressive ensemble.

The film never quite loses its nostalgic glow, even in moments the camera gazes upon with disgust.

The writing affords most of the cast the chance to expand beyond the broad archetypes with they're saddled.

The Six Triple Eight is primed for the kind of observations and montages that make films about complex undertakings such a sensory delight.

The film's central thesis on racist mistreatment boils down to how well (and how ingeniously) the women of the 6888th can overcome the particular challenges of tracking down mail recipients from smudged addresses, or even clues as minor as fabric threads in family care packages.
