Mindless Political Correctness

Rating: 1/10 (14 July 2006)

This could be the worst film I have ever seen, or close to it. It ranks up there with American BEAUTY and THE English PATIENT. It is a hateful assembly of stereotypes (which is supposed to be designed to show the folly of stereotypes, I guess.) I can't stand watching it. We in America are eons beyond the racism that this film depicts. The makers of the film are in my mind the true racists. I remember a book called LIBERAL RACISM that sums this up completely (the author is Jim Street, as I recall). Read it.
Two black guys walk down the street in a white neighborhood. One says, "Why aren't we afraid?" The other says, "Because we have guns." Then they hijack the SUV of the District Attorney and his wife. And they prove to be every bit as racist as the two black guys.
ENOUGH. This has my vote for the Raspberry Award for the WORST Film of the year. (And there's lots of competition lately.)
