Almost 9 out of 10 IMDB rating already?


But it is a "black movie". With an all[most] black cast. How is that possible? Are the bigots being blocked for once?

8 out of 10, my bad.

is it bad for a movie with mostly blacks to be good i guess you didnt like Straight outta Compton

The OP is making a reference to movies that have black leads / casts largely don't make it over a 6 rating on IMDb.

Racism on IMDb and racial bias with the IMDb ratting system, especially regarding comedies, is hard to ignore.

But I really think Key and Peele will be exempt from that. They are like Will Smith. Good ol boys, accepted by the white population.

Besides, they are half White themselves.

I'm sorry you couldn't find something to be offended about today. I'm sure you'll find something soon.

No, maybe the acting is actually good for once. Or IMDB just likes the cats. Take your pick.
