Tyler Perry's soft touch makes this WWII drama more digestible than it should be.
The Six Triple Eight. Kerry Washington as Major Charity Adams in The Six Triple Eight. Cr. Laura Radford / Perry Well Films 2 / Courtesy of Netflix"The Six Triple Eight" is inspired by the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in World War II. Given an extraordinary mission and united in their determination, these unsung heroes delivered hope and shattered barriers.
While it never slips to the level of a Hallmark or Lifetime teledrama, “The Six Triple Eight” is probably less abrasive than it needs to be. Racism and sexism are present throughout, but when the film throws punches, they come from fists concealed in well-padded gloves to soften the blows.
