My reaction falls somewhere in between that of Roger Ebert and Scott Foundas. If that sounds strange (as there’s a rather large gulf between the two), it’s because I came away from the film with a certain degree of ambivalence. I don’t think it sheds a huge amount of light on how race is lived in America, but I felt that it did succeed in demonstrating that (as a far superior director once pointed out) everyone has their reasons. Plus, who knew that Ludacris was such a fine actor?
