A BIT RACIST. BUT GOOD FILM
19 January 2021
I have to say I did notice a smattering of racism which I'm getting a little fed up of with Hollywood. Why are all white people portrayed as racist. I don't recall this in the original. Viola says "I should never have married a white man" what so a black man career criminal would have been preferable? What!! Colin Farrell as the typical Irish American racist with a worse father. It's not necessary for this plot. The scene where their son is shot by police because he was driving a nice car. Irritating! As if that happens every day. The African American characters were just as violent as the white characters. So I'd advise not to draw attention to this. If the boot was on the other foot we'd never hear the end of it. I've made no friends with this review but I don't care it needs to be said . Otherwise a really good reboot of the original. Watch out for Anne Mitchell's cameo. That was cool.
