The fake accents were horrible and stereotypical. As a Southerner, I couldn't get past the first 10 minutes. If you want a movie on racial issues, there are much better ones out there.
I ended up giving this movie an 8. The acting and the script are very well done. My chief complaint is the camera work and editing. I never get motion sickness but I thought I might get it while watching this film. The fight scenes are filmed up close and with "shakey cam" as are all the action scenes. I can understand trying to add a sense of urgency or tension to a film but only once or 2x in a movie should "shakey cam" be used. Your brain can't process what is going on and the editing jumps every 5 seconds. The camera work is very distracting in an otherwise excellent movie. I'm not familiar with the director but i would venture to guess that he's a novice at directing/filming action sequences. Either that or he had an idea that backfired.
