Review of Butter

Butter (I) (2011)
3/10
insulting and lame
6 December 2012
Warning: Spoilers
The movie looked like it would be funny based on the trailer. It was however; a political diatribe. Jennifer Garner's character was fashioned after Sarah Palin in my estimation and every stereotype you can think of for conservative middle America. It was pretty insulting to be honest. It would have been one thing if all social groups were made fun of; but that was not the case. I was also struck by the narrator's derogatory comments about white people throughout the movie. I have no idea what was suppose to be funny about that, or what it brought to the story. I really couldn't see how race had anything to do with a comedy about butter carving. I can't think of a reason why it is OK to be negative about any race weather they are a minority or not. I hope the director/studio can spend less time making political statements and more time making something that is actually funny.
