A Lot of Nothing

Mo McRae's directorial debut "A Lot of Nothing" tackles a sensitive and relevant topic - police killings of unarmed victims in the Black community. The film follows James and Vanessa, a wealthy Black couple, who perform their own twisted citizen's arrest after learning that their white neighbor and cop killed a kid. The film is audacious and creative in its cinematography and musical score. However, it falls short in its writing, as the characters are poorly developed and serve as mere soundboards for the film's proposed intelligence. The film's themes are not explored with meaningful depth, and the big reveal leaves the film's stance on race and social capital muddled. Despite its weaknesses, McRae shows promise in his direction and artistic capabilities.

This was a heaping pile of stereotypical nonsense that promotes hate and prejudice.

The movie pretends to portray sophistication and refined class, but devolves to socioeconomic emotional ignorance, driven by the writers bias and bigoted viewpoint.

Watching this movie was just a painful journey of nothingness, really a lot of nothing!

They would have been best suited to portray the wife as bipolar off her meds or some other thing to justify the irrational illogical behavior, but the writing pushed a terrible agenda.

The irony is that the fact the main house is like a mansion, and the next door neighbors house is a shack complete with half eaten food on plates laying around, beer bottles strewn about, late notices lying all around, a laptop open and queued to play porn, and a smoke detector that needed a battery.

Again it just added to the far-fetched fantasy of ridiculousness this movie is.

Steer clear of this hate provoking garbage!

This movie really was a whole lot of nothing. It talked about any and every thing. Police killings, treatment of women in the workplace, treatment of black men in the workplace, marriage, cheating, lying. There's probably something else I'm missing.

So what was the point? Hypocrisy. At least that's what I got from it.

But let's be honest, this movie could have been a LOT shorter. A smooth 75 minutes would have been more than enough. The big reveal honestly had me going to see who exactly had written and directed this movie. And then I was shocked. I didn't mind watching it once but I definitely wouldn't sit through it again.

This movie was the worst thing to reach cinema or even make it out of production. I think this movie would have been better if they had killed the "antagonist" in the beginning. This movie had no point. There was no meaning to the man's death and if anything his death and the movie was told the wrong way and the worst way. AI could do better heck even a child just scribbling could have done better. This movie like this director and production meant nothing. I'm glad the actors and staff were paid because I wish I was. Watching this movie was like breaking a bone and a doctor saying let's break it again because we messed up. While watching this movie I had a nail removed from my foot and honesty I would rather the nail get put back into my foot so that no one has to watch this total waste of time and thought. The only good point about this movie is that I know when I see the director or producers name I know any future movies by them will just be a waste of time and hard earned money.

Seriously, don't spend your time on this movie!

Boring, pointless, poor writing, bad ending, and filled with hate! Even if you skip the most of the movie, you won't miss a thing! Literally a lot of nothing!

The story telling was poor and tedious! You need to force yourself to focus and listen to the rest of the conversation in every single conversation after the first few sentences! It gets aimless and dull, and you just don't care; it's not even that much related to the story! None of the characters are interesting! Also, the acting is not that good! So, it's not much to this movie! Just save yourself some time!!!
