something wrong with rating this a 1
21 June 2007
This movie should not be given a 1 rating. I wish that would be taken off. Some people must be affronted somehow which is very confusing. This movie felt like a maturing of a black film maker. Yes it brings up some black issues, based on common concepts, statistics we all hear about. The film maker made a noble effort to portray these issues into a 2 hour entertaining, fairytale story.

There is nothing gratuitous or manipulative or exploitive that would make me rate it a 1. This film preached to the black man, but also to all fathers and gave us all a real sense of worth and worthiness. As a father I was totally moved by this portrayal, this simple yet defining story of American culture, black culture, and a film makers message.
