Ignorance can be remedied. Stupidity is incurable.
Alright this film is cooning. How is it cooning? That's the question asked by people on Terry crews time. Talking about the revolving door of the prison complex and how the US on a state federal level uses anti black racism to keep it full, is serious not a joke. The joke is the systems weak attempts at reforming those whom they purposely entrapped in voluntary servitude.
They made the main character a black man idiot savant. Where he's written as man child in some parts then a genius life guru in the other. His mother is a mammy his sister is a bitter thot, her son a fatherless stereotype. Now some will say that's art imitating life. The black female that was a cop was a bedwench that was sleeping with the white supremacist that oppressed the main character in the beginning of the film. To many bussy boy white college boy humor that showed who they were really trying to appease to.
And in the end to really bring it home why this film is cooning they blame the main character for his failure not systemic racism. Its the victim of oppression that's the problem. I'm done.
Who are they? Romany wrote and directed this movie. This is his passion project. He didn't sell his idea to a major because he didn't want white folks controlling the narrative. If you took the time to listen to him speak on it, in the interviews posted, he doesn't even label it a comedy. He said there's funny parts but it's about taking on some serious subjects.
