Am I Racist?

Am I Racist?

The film explores the varied approaches to that question and what it means to be Anti-racist. From talking to Anti-racist experts to patrons from a southern biker bar, many different viewpoints are on display.

Matt Walsh takes his deadpan humor and gets his DEI certification to meet with people like Robyn DeAnglo (White Fragility), and other voices behind the Anti-racist movement.

The film exposes the amount of money Anti-racists get paid from the people trying to become anti-racist. There are a few people on the street/ biker bar that share their thoughts on race and racism in America, that was enjoyable.

There are some really hilarious scenes and some good chuckles through out.

A recommended watch.

My biggest complaint about the movie was that it was too short. It could easily have been 15-30 more minutes, and covered more conversations. The amount that was payed out to some of the activists was so outlandish, it's a shame we couldn't get more content from their interaction. Maybe even a litttle behind the scene action too. Daily Wire could easily come out with a second movie to this, with a lot of that content in it, and it would still be interesting to watch.

The premise of Matt going on a journey was fitting, and it all works. The laughs were deep and plentiful. He artfully exposes the pushers of racism, who claim anti-racism.

Ok, here's the thing, this movie is a comedy. Matt Walsh's demeanor throughout the film is over the top and cringey. It's because this is supposed to be a comedy even though it does expose some of the ridiculous characters driving the DEI movement.

As a comedy, a lot of the movie wasn't like super funny. Definitely cringey, but not usually in a funny way. As an expose on the drivers of the DEI movement, it also wasn't great. However, there were 1-2 moments that had me absolutely dying of laughter. They weren't the over the top moments either. Once or twice Matt made an off handed comment or gesture that had me dying in laughter.

It's worth a watch, but don't expect much.

We laughed more than I expected and the commentary really was not provocative. The documentary does a good job of showing not telling and the unifying overall message is exactly what we need these days. Glad to have someone call out the racism and division being spread under the guise of DEI. The movie is heads and shoulders better than any of the other daily wire films and I would happily watch it again and recommend to everyone I know. I think that even people that don't Share the producer's worldview can appreciate the social commentary and the fact that he seems to only punch up not down. The people that he confronts negatively are people specifically trying to spread here and division and making money on it can't picture a more worthy endeavor in filmmaking.

Definitely worth the watch, though the people who would benefit most from checking it out won't. So this is essentially a "preaching to the choir" situation. Still, it was pretty funny and had relevant points to make. Walsh does a good job of just sitting back and let these people who profit off of manufacturing "racism" everywhere just bury themselves with their own ludicrous words. Will it change their minds? No, because people like this who are hell-bent on keeping "racism" alive (even though, as Thomas Sowell said, it's on life support) stand to lose too much if the problem goes away for the most part. Video review to come shortly.
