    It was better to be underrated than to be overrated, because this movie has a fresh life coming of age story to adulthood, and I freaking love it. 😆👍

      Can you please do your next video on the 1997 classic movie Selena because the movie also helped immortalize Selena’s legacy following her untimely death, becoming a cultural maker for Mexican Americans and other Latinos who saw their own cultural family experiences reflected in her life story.

    As a fan of Rick Famuyiwa, I remember expecting something more in the vein of what he did with The Wood, and some of that is present here.
    But a lot of the modern elements with the drugs, bitcoins, and all the weird stuff Chanel Iman/Lily took me out of it. I might have to give it another try.
    Speaking of Lily, the theater was cracking up when a family took their kids with them, and then had to leave once her character started disrobing. 🙃😭😂

    This was like two different movies to me. It started off light hearted and funny and then went dark and serious. All in all it was a decent film but fell short of being a classic imo.

  • @PhantomBones101
    @PhantomBones101 Год назад +6

    This is one of the only times in cinema that I know of where I actually felt represented. I'm a lot like Malcom in the sense that I am black in skin only. Culturally I'm pretty far removed from it. Not to say I resent that half, I was just raised differently to the point that I didn't fit in with the other black kids. On paper you wouldn't expect someone who looks like me to like the things I like or even speak the way I do.
    I'm not trying to sound special, it just baffles me that a movie went out of its way to show that we might all look the same, but we are all different. Other movies, especially in the last three years paint black people as all acting the same.

    • @KeishaCharmaine
      @KeishaCharmaine Год назад +4

      I wouldn’t say Malcolm was “black in skin only”. He was diverse in his interests but his black cultural influences were very clear. His hair and fashion came from 90’s hiphop. But I understand what you mean if this character is closest to your identity. Black characters always have their blackness tied to their character development in one way or another.

    Never saw this movie, but I’ve seen the trailers. Didn’t think it was interesting, but I did think Shameik Moore(if that’s how you spell his name😂🫣) was handsome as hell, like if Morris Chestnut had a secret love child and deserted him and his mom the side piece.🤣🥴😜
