There will be spoilers for both films. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MKWPq55b1uo/UMYwHdYOiMI/AAAAAAAAN80/b8bTb7-PaLk/s1600/poster+whitedog+2.jpg Rated: 3.5 / 5 I have to admit, the 80s to the early 90s continue to impress me. The most interesting of their films tend to have a lot of grey in their morals and themes, rather than making a pure black and white picture (assuming we're … Continue reading White Dog (1982) and Homicide (1991) dual review, and the issue of race

Films for the #BLM Looters and Rioters
You know, I try. I really try. I try to avoid hopping on the bandwagon of current events this heavily. I don't like getting caught up in them. I may take a small jab at them here and there when I review some film or show or game or something (maybe even using the said … Continue reading Films for the #BLM Looters and Rioters
The Long Walk Home (1991)
Rated: 1.5 / 5 So I made this review on IMDB, which is currently getting processed. On the off-chance they're as bitchy as I've heard, and they terminate both it and my short-lived account, I'm putting it here. On the chance that the review stays and my account doesn't get terminated, I'm keeping it up … Continue reading The Long Walk Home (1991)
A response to a #BLM supporter.
A "review" for the film The Hate U Give made by Letterboxd user ScreeningNotes: ”It is impossible to be unarmed when our blackness is the weapon that they fear.” The police is a racist institution. White people have more social, political, and economic privilege than black people. That needs to change. If you think Blue Lives … Continue reading A response to a #BLM supporter.
Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967) review
Rated: 4 / 5 "A love story of today." Well, maybe not so much anymore. Or maybe it is. This film has surprising relevancy to today, and I personally find that to be a bit sad. So, in case you haven't ever seen this movie, which I suggest you do considering I've given it a … Continue reading Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967) review
Detroit review and discussion of Hollywood’s portrayal of racism over the years
Rated: 3/5* * = with caveats, especially with dialogue that self-references the year. "Helloooo? This is 1967! I can do whatever I want!" Introduction ... ... ... Ok, so this movie. I had reservations going in. But there are times where I get sick and tired of being on edge, of having such a high … Continue reading Detroit review and discussion of Hollywood’s portrayal of racism over the years
13th review
Rated: 2/5 America. Home to 5% of the world's population. America, which has 25% of the world's total prison population. The highest rate of incarceration in the world. For a country so great that illegals would want to flock to it, one would wonder why it is that the prison population is so high (or did … Continue reading 13th review
Discussions on Racism
So it begins. Been getting feedback from my Do the Right Thing review in my entry on letterboxd, and I'm hoping the same thing will happen on the other platforms the review is linked to. I'm going to post the back-and-forth discussions I've been having. Because I've learned from experience that if I end up … Continue reading Discussions on Racism
Do the Right Thing review and discussion on racism
Rated: 3/5 So "nigger" is an offensive word right? At least when white people use it? But why is that exactly? From what I've been taught, it has to do with the past, during the 1800s to the late 1900s (depending on which area of America you are at). A term used by white men … Continue reading Do the Right Thing review and discussion on racism
Get Out review
Rated: 3/5 I heard good things about this, being a horror movie and all. And I tend to be very skeptical of horror films, because most of them suck. As it turns out, this did nothing to surprise me in that regard, because I don't think of this as a horror film. It's a suspense/thriller, … Continue reading Get Out review
