racism for dummies

Rating: 1/10 (19 January 2008)

this movies offended me. not in a "how dare they!" kinda way. more in a "this is a terrible movie" kinda way. it's as if a person who has never met any other race but his own sat down and decided to write a movie about race relations. through various unrealistic stereotypes, this film bumbles through trying to make "some point" about how we all view each other but in reality, it is the works of a person who could not know less about his subject matter if he lived in a cave.
on top of that, it's melodramatic, corny and just all around poorly executed. the fact it won an Oscar speaks in volumes about how b.s. that award has become...i will say that some of the performances aren't bad but that hardly saves this complete and utter joke of a movie from even being remotely acceptable.
if i was able to give this negative stars i would. howard the duck is like the godfather compared to this movie.
