10/10
A fine film around tackling micro aggressions
3 May 2024
For me The American Society of Magical Negroes was metaphor about dealing about handling micro aggressions which is a massive health problem for people of colour and highlighting the solutions between old fashioned techniques and present day climate of being upfront.

The character leads art work is the key in this film: resonate with his artwork and art process, you will love the movie

As for the romantic aspect it's reminded me of Barry Jenkins earlier films like Medicine for Melonconly

Also saw strong connection with meet Joe black, another brilliant film that has been misunderstood

For some reason people want this film to be something that it's not.

The film biggest flaw has been the way it was been mis-marketed

I would give it a strong 7.5 but 10/10 for making a film around this movie trope.

This film will be seen in a different light in the years to come.
