A sensible chuckle, and the best satire I've seen in a while
This film knew how to tackle the issue of stereotypes in black literature and knew how to be funny about the addiction of stereotypes
Smart and funny. Compelling subject matter and performances. Great script. Instant classic.
It is a delightful movie to watch. Makes you laugh hard and think harder about how African-Americans are perceived nowadays.
Makes the stereotypes of black people into a comedy. This was an okay watch with an elite cast
Extremely clever script that keeps getting distracted with boring family drama stuff. Or maybe that’s the point, very layered film
It’s like they just needed a bit more dialogue in certain scenes, but they left it up for gestures and awkward silences do it instead.
So close to perfect but missed! The discussions of the black experience being exploited vs telling it how it really is was thought provoking
All films feel the need to make a point about specific issues these days, but thankfully it's a good point in this case. Great satire.
An insightful narrative with complex characters, engaging and thought-provoking.
