Again with this?

Rating: Null/10 (6 October 2001)

How many damn "uplifting" movies and TV shows are going to be made about inner-city black kids being "uplifted" by upper middle class white people? Pardon me, but didn't our country get over this after "Diff'rent Strokes" and "Dangerous Minds"? I'm not one for political correctness, but gah-dayum, how many times can we see variations on this same tired bit?
You know what I'd like to see? A movie about a troubled inner-city black coach (or teacher, or anything) who has to take a bunch of shiftless, no 'count, money-grubbing, spoiled little suburban white kids and turn each of them into a decent human being with a real purpose in life beyond video games, TV, bad heavy-metal records, and waiting until they're sixteenth birthday to get that Camero their mom and dad promised them if they "kept their grades up." After turning the bunch of white losers into winners with rhythm, the black coach finds out that he has changed for the better as well, no longer talking out loud to the screen during movies or calling women "ho's", yadda, yadda, yadda.
But I think I'll have to write that one myself.
Maybe the Wayans Brothers would direct it.
