This movie is such a great film and has so many wonderful points to make about acceptance, love, unity and finding the individual value of every person and connection in our life without disrespecting anyone.

The movie was very interesting to say the least it added very cultural clarity upon what interracial relationships are facing and what most are afraid of speaking upon. I absolutely enjoyed the movie really loved it.

Welcome back, Streamers. Let’s start the year off awkward yet cultured with You People. Because you people just don’t get it sometimes. Either way, this Netflix flick follows a new couple and their families, who find themselves examiningWelcome back, Streamers. Let’s start the year off awkward yet cultured with You People. Because you people just don’t get it sometimes. Either way, this Netflix flick follows a new couple and their families, who find themselves examining modern love and family dynamics amidst clashing cultures, societal expectations and generational differences. Let’s see how it goes.

First off, JONAH HILL DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A 35 YEAR OLD?! If he’s 35, then I probably look horrible out here! Nevertheless, the cast of this movie is so extensive and hilarious. Let’s start with Eddie being raw Eddie again. Sam Jay during the podcast is real and funny. Mike Epps in his limited time made me spit out my highball a couple times. The cast other than being funny are just as awkward as they are supposed to be. Julia Louis Dreyfus can’t get anymore awkward white mom and the rest of the cast pulls their same weight. Jonah Hill is the only one who feels mostly miscast in this role. I feel like there’s a swagger necessary this white guy couldn’t pull off in this role. I mean I know Robin Thicke isn’t doing anything right now. Joking but seriously, just something about Lauren and Jonah just doesn’t fit. It doesn’t ruin the movie because he’s pretty funny but where’s the Shabby Hanks kind of guy for this role. I laughed as I wrote that. Either way, the cast is definitely what holds this movie together.

Just to be honest, the movie is awkward and stressful. Now, that’s exactly what Kenya Barris is going for with this movie. In a way, this movie succeeds to exactly the way “Black-ish” and “Black AF” did. Barris has a way of forcing a narrative upon a show or movie and it just makes the movie awkward. There are times when things are going well and we’re laughing and tense due to the race relations but then there’s just super-forced, awkward scenes where someone would never say all of those things at once. You might get a couple but not the full spectrum of clueless white person back-to-back-to-back or militant black person back-to-back-to-back. Now, that’s where this movie becomes more like a “Black AF” rather than a “Black-ish”, which clearly means one has 8 seasons and “Black AF” should definitely never have a second season. Now, I’d actually definitely watch a first year of marriage sequel to You People, but I’d also be afraid Kenya might overdo it with his flavor as well. I’d have the fear that the movie just makes it too awkward and whiny like “Black AF” instead of funny and heartfelt like “Black-ish”.

At the end of the day, just like race relations in this country and world, there are problems. You People is a good clever romantic comedy that hinges on interracial relations in the world. While a few parts feel forced and awkward, like Kenya Barris, the rest feels like love and hilarity. Driven by a big cast and extended ensemble of minor characters, You People gets the point across. As a streaming option, you’d definitely find worse but not too many better. Grab a bowl of popcorn and flip over to Netflix when you get a chance to sit in a romantic tense situation with some good laughs. Run the Marathon with this one… that’s for you NIPSEY!… Expand

Há pelo menos duas coisas realmente muito boas aqui: Eddy Murphy está surpreendentemente muito bem e há uma série de referências que vão de Miss Dayse a Malcom X. Ainda que muitas vezes o diálogo pareçam forçados, alguns trechos são realmente bons.
No entanto, a composição dos personagens dos pais é meio estranha. Para lidar com o noivo judeu, o embate ficou para o pai da noiva (anulando a mãe negra), assim como para lidar com a noiva negra, o embate ficou para a mãe da noiva (anulando o pai judeu), ou seja, as próprias opções do roteiro acabaram por cair no segregacionismo.
Ainda que meio capenga na comédia e no drama, e com uma reviravolta rápida, previsível e não convincente, o filme pode agradar a militância por ser politicamente bem enquadrado. Mas como cinema, precisaria de muito mais.… Expand

There are 'woke' films, and then there is outright racist, leftist propaganda. This film does nothing but play on the tired 'white people are evil, black people are cool' trope. I've seen films like this before. But never have the racist insults been so frequent and so explicit. Imagine if they made a film where they constantly mocked black people for the way they walk, talk, dress and act. And if we're honest, this would make an easy target. It's like a history lesson of white supremacy. They could have at least had the jokes flowing in both directions, but we all know they were terrified of the potential backlash. I'm not white, but if I was, I would be marching through the streets demanding this, and other garbage like it, be removed from circulation in the same way black people pull down statues they don't like. And to make things worse, you would have thought with Jonah Hill and Eddie Murphy, there would be at least one moderately funny moment. But it would be more fun attending your own parents' funeral while cutting your c*ck off with a rusty chainsaw than it was to sit through this pile of woke trash. Hollywood died a while ago. And it's because of films like this. This isn't a fad that's going to go away. If people don't take action, this is the future.
