Save the Last Dance 2 @ anyone???

Rating: Null/10 (15 January 2001)

And the winner for 2001's `Most Politically Incorrect Film' goes to ..... yes, you guessed it!
MTV has reached a new low with this teeny bopper nonsense of a white girl who finishes her senior year in a majority-black Chicago high school. She befriends a black athlete who begins teaching how to `act black.' by talking, walking, sitting, and dancing black
Word of mouth gave this film an opening weekend score of $24 million but catered to mainly young females (78 percent of the audience was female and 61 percent was under 21 according to studio data). But this type of film only further increases racial discord than alleviating it. Does Hollywood believe they can mix a shallow plot, stereotypical characters and some `hip dance moves' to further the goals set forth by MLK, Jr? Hardly.

Turn this movie inside out and you'll see what I mean. Imagine a black girl who finishes her senior year in a majority-white Winnetka high school. She befriends a white jock who begins teaching her to act `white.' Oh dear, how long before Jesse and Al start boycotting outside MTV's TLR show and blasting the airways on `how racism in America still lives' and supporting `Fight the Power' rap concerts in DC? Indeed racism still exists... as long as its reverse racism.
