fosfeno's rating
This movie is simple, only four actors and one room, and it's all about the dialogue, but mostly the emotions. It certainly touches contemporary and still prevalent issues (right now more than ever), but I wasn't very pleased with how it was delivered. At first I found Kerry Washington's character annoying but then I tried to put myself in her shoes, and I think her acting wasn't even close to what it must actually feel like to go through a situation like that. I don't think any non-black person could ever feel what it feels like to live as a black american or a black citizen in any predominantly white country for that matter.
I don't think it will leave viewers indifferent, and for that reason I don't think it deserves all the low ratings and rants.
This might not be the best comedy ever but it has its very funny moments. The plot and the spiral they fall in doesn't make much sense, but it's all for the laugh, and it worked for me. I really loved the chemistry between Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani.
