Okay, it was full of racial tension but it wasn't Racist ! It was by the author of Spike Lee's CLOCKERS (1994) so what were you viewers expecting.
I found it interesting but in the end disappointing due to the irritating editing ( granted it was better then DOMINO ! ) and overlong time but it's better then any Lifetime or Hallmark movie of the Week any day.
I'm actually surprised that Julianne Moore or Samuel Jackson didn't get at least a nomination because they felt like they were real people.
The people who hate this film are obviously the same ones who despised similar films like CRASH ( 2004) or JOHN Q. If you want a racist, politically-incorrect movie, watch one of Spike Lee's ( few low-points on his resume) INSIDE MAN. Man, that was over-hyped and really pointless.
** 1/2 Stars out of 4. Above-Average but not great.
Please Note that I posted this review because I know when a film deserves better even if it isn't all that.

I'm sorry but this stand-up concert is too repetitive.
I loved Larry on Blue Collar TV and this is no exception.
After hearing the words "turd," "midgets," "strippers," "gays," and many other words a dozen times I started fast-forwarding through this nonsense.
I know it's funny but this is too focused on being shocking that it loses it's charm pretty quickly.
So watch it only if you're either drunk, high or in a mood to where you'll laugh at all the foulness.
The only part I got a kick out of was the "Johnny the Retard" skit.

DreamWork's Animation Department really showed that the talented Pixar division wasn't the only one who knew how to be creative and at the same time be the only one making massive box office hits.
This film rocks and even when you get tired of it just give it a couple of months or a year and you will find something new each time.
The writers and directors, most of who previously worked for Disney, are so brilliant at taking silly fairy tale concepts and making it to where the entire family can watch without being offended and having something hilarious for kids, teens and adults all at the same time.
Last of all, the actors were made for these roles. I can't see Chris Rock playing Donkey as well as Eddie Murphy or seeing Tea Leoni as Cameron Diaz's Fiona. These people were well casted and obviously had a fun time being these animated favorites.
If you have not seen it yet, I'm in shock!
