Resumo

Reviewers say 'The American Society of Magical Negroes' tackles racism, identity, and societal expectations with satire. It's praised for addressing racial inequalities and stereotypes, blending humor with serious commentary. The film sparks discussions on race relations and offers a unique take on the "magical negro" trope. Performances by Justice Smith and David Alan Grier are lauded. However, some find it slow, preachy, or lacking in satirical impact, leading to mixed opinions.

Wasted opportunity

The very premise of the movie would suggest it's going to be a comedy, maybe something that addresses racism in a way that everyone can still enjoy. Something akin to "blazing saddles" would have made this movie worth watching. Instead you are left with a movie with a million logic gaps, no real humor, no action and nothing close to witty dialogue. Feels more like somebody took their inspiration from a 4 year old complaining about things they don't understand and making suggestions that do not make sense. If I could give this movie a negative star rating I would, instead I'm left giving it a 1 star rating as that is the lowest rating I can give.

They must be joking right?

Could a movie possibly be any LESS aware of what's going on in the country? Did someone really think it was the right time to make this? Who would fund this and why?

How unbelievably inappropriate.

Do they not realize that in order to MAKE this movie they needed access to the ACTUAL magic of FILM and cinema? Technology and methods that were invented in Europe. The actual real life magic of cinema HAS improved EVERYONE'S lives. It is something to be shared and appreciated by ALL. Movies like this serve to, once again, separate and divide. Tragic.

The absolute hypocrisy of this movie is honestly astounding. This will gain ZERO support for the cause it's trying to validate. If anything, this is counter intuitive.

We need more of Jordan Peele and less of these ridiculously self serving fabricated fantasies of toxic filmmakers.

Nope. Just nope.

I love David Alan Grier and pretty much anything that has to do with magic/fantasy so I thought I'd give this a try. Big mistake. Aside from the fact that the film is obviously celebrating blatant racism masked as anti-racist satire, the story wasn't good, the acting was (overall) subpar and even the special effects left to be desired.

If you're looking for something good that will scratch this itch, rewatch the Harry Potter films. Take another turn with Lord of the Rings and then, of course, the Hobbit. Heck, even the Merlin show on BBC would be a solid choice. This film is part of the problem.

Missed the Mark

I'm really shocked ANYONE at ANY POINT thought this script was a good idea. It's one of those films that makes you uncomfortable - not due to the tropes they included, but because of the fact that this is just lazy lazy LAZY writing!

Any sort of movement forward has been pushed back by decades thanks to the 'brain trust' that came up with this garbage. It's 2024 - we're better than this, aren't we?

The premise of this whole film is insulting to our people - in ALL regards. The fact that it bombed at the box office is of no shock - nor should it be to anyone who saw it. Thank goodness we have American Fiction; at least that spectacular film made its point w/o being ridiculous .

A tired, played out gag with nothing new to say

There's only so many times you can repeat the same 'white people so fragile' joke before it gets stale, and The American Society of Magical Negroes forms its entire foundation around it. It says absolutely nothing new or profound about racism, and right from the jump, you know exactly where it's headed. The new recruit, played by Justice Smith, has to tend to a white male who's down on his luck, and he meets an Armenian woman in a coffee shop and falls in love with her. In order to keep the white man happy, the recruit must surrender his feelings in order to make his white client happier, lest he ends up destroying the entire foundation the Society is set upon.

I was in the auditorium with one other man, and not a single one of us were genuinely entertained by what was going on (the other dude was just messing around on his phone). I ended up walking out an hour in because I knew where it was going and it wasn't going to get any better, and I highly suggest staying as far away from this one as possible.

Citações
Aren: You're not my friend. And you don't want to be friends, because if we were actual friends, you would have to talk to me and listen to me and make space for the reality that I live in a country that makes me feel like it wants me dead. Where if I get shot today, there is an army of people ready to explain how it was probably my fault. And I feel that every day, in every glance, in every movie that's supposed to be uplifting. And that changes everything. That changes how I walk and how I talk and how I take up space! Or don't! It changes what risks feel reasonable and which ones are insane. And it's taken me my whole life to realize that this is a weight that I walk around with all the time. And after this lifelong journey of figuring out that maybe this shit impacts everything I do, you want to turn around and act like I'm crazy for acknowledging it. No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. You don't get to put me in danger just because you don't want to feel like an asshole. Be the asshole. Because the shame that you feel like you did something wrong just by being yourself, that is my whole life. And this place, this country has been so deeply indifferent to whether or not I exist that on some level, I don't think I have the right to. And what I am saying to you that you so steadfastly refuse to hear is fuck that! I do! I deserve to be here, not just on this stage but in this world. And that, believe it or not, is a revelation to me. So you want to know about my-my "diverse experience"? I have been on this planet for 27 years, and I just figured out this week that I deserve to be alive.
