David Alan Grier and Justice Smith in The American Society of Magical Negroes (2024)

Review by misterw2000

The American Society of Magical Negroes

3/10

Trainwreck Alert

The movie starts off with an interesting idea, hinting at a break from the usual and regular storylines. Yet, it makes you think: are we just going in circles, fixing old mistakes only to make new ones? This theme suggests a deeper exploration, but the film doesn't quite deliver.

Despite the promising start, the movie falls short. It relies too heavily on clichés and doesn't develop its characters well. The focus on a magical team feels like a missed opportunity for more meaningful storytelling. Instead, it drifts into familiar territory, resembling the melodrama of daytime TV.

However, the movie manages to redeem itself with a surprising small twist at the end. It catches you off guard and adds a touch of humor to an otherwise mediocre story. This comedic turn provides a welcome break from the predictability and leaves a lasting impression.
