Movie - Pretty Good, Message Board - Rubbish

I had to stop reading this message board after a few minutes.

So much bigotry, racism, whining and general feeble mindedness.

Then there was that troll guy ranting at non-US movies and yet another guy claiming imdb ratings were 'losing all credibility.' I never did work out if he thought Avatar was too high or this too low.

Oh and they guy who just liked the white characters was a classic.

1/2 a star for the board.

3 1/2 for the movie.

Cheers,
James

Yeah, pretty disappointing.

Basically people didn't like the fact that the main characters were mostly black, young and working class.

I don't buy the 'thugs' argument as people have pointed on on here how they're fine with, as you say, the white characters or eve white villains from other films and shows (who are objectively a lot worse that the kids on this film.)

Snobbery and racism.
