    Saw it the other day, movie was just ok to me I expected more. I might need to give it a second watch though.
    most of the funny/memorable parts are already in the trailer
    it's some unnecessary ? ? in the movie too with dude from everybody hates chris nh

    i saw it .. i liked it ... it wasn't quite exactly what i expected it to be i suppose .. but ? they got in a whole helluva lot of good ? within the parameters of still getting national distribution and promotion behind it .. so im not mad at all ... the movie delves into a lot of caricatures that make up the modern dynamics of racial interactions and overall its interesting as well as quite humorous ... it didn't come across as contrived which is what i was really hoping it didn't ... i'd love to see more movies like this that at least try to take an honest snapshot of our society

    Saw this last night. Cool Lil movie I like the message it was trying to push across. Touched on some things that people don't really talk about.
    Could've done without the ? ? , but I guess it was necessary for the movie. Smash on the light skin chick and the brown skin chick.

    It was cool.
    I boo'd loudly when I saw old girl with that cracka.
    I applauded some of her speeches too.

    Didn't like the weavey black bish and the deans ? son but that was their jobs to not b likeable so I guess they did their thing.

    Kinda wasn't what I was expecting but no problem with it.

    After I left the theater I saw a bunch of college professor looking whites actually having an informed sounding conversation about the movie and some of what it was addressing.

    And smh @ Chris getting his will smith on. I had to look a way from that ? .

    I don't have full out convos in the movies like some but if I feel like it I'll yell out something at the screen.

    What I do hate is muhfuckas(kids & adults) bumping my muhfuckin seat.

    I will fight somebody (adult or kid) over that ? , I ? hate it.

    While thought provoking and uncomfortable to watch(which I love),this movie doesn't relate to me.

    This is for super rich black ppl,not average black ppl really.

    I did appreciate it though and recommend watching it.

    I agree with this damn near 100%.. especially the bolded.. still trying to figure out how I feel about this flick.. had some good points. but didn't seem they were trying to push the issue all the way.. I dunno..

    I thought the movie was good, it dragged a bit because it was so dialogue driven.

    "Light skinned chick"? Oh...you mean the girl who was half white. Guess you missed that giant plot point somehow.
    Like I said...
