GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

Vic Gear I found that it is rather evident that people who have rated this low, have not given this show much more than a five minute watch. It quite explains the reason for the title, in the last few minutes. It shows that the reason it's alright for this sort of joking, is because well...Watch the show and you'll find out. I rather enjoyed this episode, it proved powerful at the end.The story writing as a whole, is decent. It shows potential for character growth, and folks looking to watch it should give it a thorough go, vs an angry opinion based on the title alone. It goes to show, that racism is alive folks. And no, this isn't a show that is somehow "reverse racist" (because in honesty, that makes no real sense...wouldn't that be the reverse of racism in general? And a good thing?)

arseniy Some thoughts: (1) The filmmakers do far too much hiding of their own opinions in the various opinions presented here. (2) I bet however, that they do believe things like "black people can't be racist". Exposing the ever-self-serving corresponding absurdity, being as simple as looking up the word "racist" in the damn dictionary. Instead of putting up a highly-specialized/strawman definition, only to pretend that it's THE definition. (3) There are actual slaves in the world. Right now. Millions of them. Moreover, even in the US, there is both very real slavery and very real racism. Not dumb college kids responding to faux-civil-rights-crusader bait and wearing some dumb costumes at some dumb private party. No. People are actually being forced away from their health and freedom based on race and class - in the US - as we speak. Black people, brown people, Asian people, even white people (see: Eastern European sex trafficking), etc. Exceedingly few of these grim realities, have very much to do at all - with what's depicted here. And if one is really concerned about such matters - one would find a way to reflect (at least SOME of) them in one's film. If however, one is selfishly concerned instead with the minutiae of one's own exceedingly-privileged (by world and even US standards) existence, while wanting to disguise oneself as a hard-issue-tackler - one would make a film just like this. (4) And if burying one's head this far up one's own rectum is an absolute must - I'd at least ask that there's a clear corresponding point. Which brings us back to (1) above.(5) Perhaps I'm being too harsh, but when people pretend to care about higher ideals, while their efforts are all too obviously aimed instead at merely serving themselves - I have trouble seeing anything else. Whether it's Fox News with their constant cry-bullying. Or what madness Nazi atrocities and such have been used to justify in the middle East. Or such, admittedly-milder, yet all-too-similar cases.

citzsold This film, contrary to the title, is not a letter to white people. This is a view in to the inner conversations that take place in black culture. As a white man, I am not normally privy to these conversations. Many people with my pigment feel that black culture is a singular being (odd, since white is clearly not a singular culture). This is a conversation between blacks about where they belong as a minority culture in a white society. The movie has some interesting talking points, and should be credited with attempting to start a conversation on race. I don't think it took hold enough. The movie is an outgrowth of Morgan Freeman's character in "Glory", when he grabs Denzel Washington and gets in his face, "Who you calling. . . There white boys out there dying. . . " Take time to watch it, and listen to how a group talks to itself. If you are white, it isn't a story against you. The conversation isn't about harming you. it is about black people trying to understand what being black means post Civil Rights. There is no loss in not being a part of the conversation. This film is absolutely no threat to me.

bob the moo Despite its title, this film is really not about white people per se – well, it is, but this is not where it is at its strongest. The narrative is formed form the news stories we have all seen of blackface frat parties which, at best, could be described as insensitive; the film uses such 'insensitivity' as part of its story but really this does feel like a device just to give the film a point to build to and through. Actually story is probably the film's weakest element, and there isn't a wholly satisfying arc to the film as a whole. Instead though the film is best as it explores the black experience of those students in the film.As such the film is surprisingly nuanced for a satire, because as biting as it is, and as usual in making points as its characters are – it doesn't really ever feel like it is caricature but rather they come over as people, with complexity, confusion, and a general sense of not really knowing where/how they should be. As I am neither black nor American, I can't say how true to real life this is, but the film certainly convinces with this world. Impressively the film manages to do this within a package of slick delivery, snappy and funny dialogue, and effective satire. It is far from perfect though, and the overall narrative is not really what sticks in the mind, even if the characters do. The cast deliver on this well thanks to the good writing; Williams, Thompson, Parris, Dobies, and Bell, lead the cast well – with Thompson, Williams, and Parris in particular making good on the promise of the material.It isn't a film that will hit the mark with everyone, and it does have those issues in the story; however it is stylishly presented, smartly written, funny, slick, and engaging throughout.
