Pretty Good

A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

So, in an alternate universe, where all white men are gay, weak and flimsy, we have "black and white". And this title is descriptive of its portrayals.Total extremist garbage that manages to be racist on multiple levels, depicting white males as weak, sniveling sycophants and black men as powerful, desirable specimens that all white women want to do the deed with because their white husbands are just nowhere near as amazing as the black men. Premeditated filth intended to soothe racial relations but managing to twist them out of proportion. Of note is the fact that the only 'manl'y white guys depicted here are the ones who try to "act black". Incredibly ridiculous and not worth your time.

Hip-hop is not just a style of music, for it comes associated with an attitude, an attitude that notoriously does not wholly reject the ghetto from which it springs. Whether the music, and culture, should thus be seen as the free expression of the dispossessed, or as one of the chains tying them down, is this a moot point (though it's worth noting that every revolution in popular music over the last half-century has been seen by respectable society as the end of the world). 'Black and White' is a celebrity-studded collection of small stories about characters living the hip-hop life, its focus on the interplay of the white community with this essentially black form of music. It's not badly executed, although it's hard to get very interested in any of the characters. One peculiarity, though, is how little hip-hop there actually is on the soundtrack, a strange vacuum at the heart of the film; also, we see little in the way of everyday life in the world from which the music emerged. The result is watchable, but there are no real insights, sociological or musical, to be had.

I just don't understand how some people can comment on this film saying that it had little structure yet can comment about Independance Day being good!!!! This film is realistic and quite humerous. It doesn't depict Blacks as wanting a quick lay and it doesn't potray White as trying to be bling!!It just depicts the characters we see do what they want to do... And besides, if you hated the film so much, you should have turned it off. The fact the very vast majority did not suggests you are not at all being honest in your opinions of this film.Get a life people and carry on watching your Hollywood Superflicks!!My verdict: 7/10

BLACK AND WHITE contains Mike Tyson playing himself, which is interesting since Mike Tyson as Mike Tyson advocates some interesting things in this film. Else than that, I found Bijou Philips irritating, the storyline poorly done, and Ray Allen's performance not exactly oscar worthy.
