Coffee & Kareem (2020)
Coffee Grinds
Coffee and Kareem is the most degrading, disrespectful, destructive depictions of black people to come along in years.
White Detroit cop, Ed Helms, last named Coffee is having a sexual affair with Taraji P Henson who has a son named Kareem. (Get it Coffee & Kareem) .
Opening scene is Taraji on top of Ed having sex when her fat pre-teen son sees them.
Kareem is flagrantly foul mouthed, uncontrollable and disrespectful to everyone including his mother. So this is how black kids are portrayed in 2020 comedies.
There are fat jokes, pedophilia jokes, gay rape jokes, drug jokes, jail jokes, profanity all by or at the black minor, Kareem.
The lead black adult male, Ron Rico Lee. is a rapper who is a drug dealer who gets arrested during sex and runs out pantsless. He's arrested bare assed up in the front yard and put in the squad car bare assed also.
This is a horrendous disgraceful propaganda piece against black people, Detroit, black mothers and black men & boys specifically.
Ed Helms is the good white guy who is the victim of all the black people he encountered.
Leave It on the Floor (2011)
Leave it on the Cutting Room Floor !
The new movie musical "Leave It On The Floor" does for the world of Ball competitions & gay houses what Birth of a Nation did for the Emancipation Proclamation. Both films written, directed & produced by white men seek to portray one dimensional, dysfunctional, shiftless, self destructive African Americans. The men in Leave it on the floor are gay ball dancers in the House of Eminence who are so self loathing they actually except abusive, destructive relationships and sing about those conditions as "Black Love". Leave it on the Floor is a gay black exploitation film. The subject matter as well as the performers are exploited for the benefit or the writer, director and producers. It is highly offensive to African- Americans and Gay African American males specifically. The actors did the best they could with an uninspired script and weak amateurish song writing. Poorly written, filmed, edited & directed.
Hustle & Flow (2005)
Black on Black Hate
Hustle and Flow must be the favorite movie of The Klan, David Duke, and Clarence Thomas. Not since Birth of a Nation has there been a worst depiction of African American people. Every character in the movie is completely self loathing and full of misogynistic thoughts and actions. Terrance Howard plays a failure of a pimp who mistreats his prostitutes and throws one of them on the porch in the middle of the night along with her crying baby in his walker.
This movie depicts that there is no craft to making rap music and that it is the theme music of the slime of society. Every song is about drugs, violence, bitches and hoes.
He later beats up a drugged rapper and shots his way out of the situation. He goes off to jail but not before he convinces his white prostitute that she is in charge. What a movie hero.
John Singleton is the new D.W. Griffith perpetuating destructive black stereotypes. What did we do to you John? Who hurt you? Hustle and Flow should be called Black on Black hate. The hustle is the marketing to hip hop audiences; the flow is the cash flow the studio will make.

Catwoman (2004)
Purrr-fectly fine movie, I enjoyed it.
It's a shame that critics can use their power to ruin a movie. Catwoman was a good movie. It was more interesting than I.Robot, Spiderman 1, Hulk, Daredevil & Batman 1. I think politically Hollywood wanted to assure it's golden boy (Matt Damon) a good weekend. It also wanted to say how dare Halle Berry & Sharon Stone headline a movie. Some actually believe that Matt Damon & all that he represents in our society are "Born Supreme"
The movie had likable characters that you could care about. Halle Berry mad a nice transition between the meek side & the Catwoman side. She looked fantastic! The special effects were great. They were on a par with Spiderman 2. Benjamin Bratt was a good choice of leading man. I went in expecting the worst & was pleasantly surprised. As for critics I say "Those that can...DO, those who can't...TEACH, those who can't do either...become Critics!!!
