Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

This is really good. Snappy writing, funny, and convincing characters. The title refers to the main character's chances of 'crossing over' to universal appeal, and his struggles along the way. It's also a good commentary on how things work in Hollywood, particularly the clumsy way white people behave in front of black people. I hope we see a second season, there's lots more to explore.

Does anyone else notice that these reviews have the same pattern to them....It's basically the same person writing reviews under different names and email addresses. You can the similarities in the writing style...pretty dumb if you ask me. Anyone who pays attention to things will figure this out pretty quickly

show is kinda trash. I really wanted to like this show. I really hate how outraged the main character is all the time, makes him only semi likable, but maybe he's supposed to grow on us. good supporting cast though. except the son. little dude is a bad actor. The over exaggerated race narrative is necessary to the show and, maybe its important that the show even exists but, Its annoying to me. I think that dear white people did a better job, in the sense that the racial happenings seemed more realistic this show is dookie just like survivors remorsei'll probably keep watching though haha ... for the culture.(edit). it gets better

Jay Pharoah's stank face on the promo poster sums up the experience of watching this show. White Famous is the story of an up and coming comedian who accidentally stumbles his way into stardom and opportunities that any other working actor would kill for, and this, inexplicably, makes him mad at everybody. This guy STAYS angry, at everyone, all the time, except when he is trying to hook up with his baby's mother(the only likable character in this show) Everyone else on the show is either an obnoxious asshole, a closet racist, or a generally unlikable waste of screen time. Maybe the point of the show is that Hollywood is filled with awful people, including and especially the supposed protagonist of the story, but other shows (e.g. Bojack Horseman, Californication, and even the much maligned bro-fest, Entourage) have done this premise in a less overbearing and (gasp!) actually entertaining way. Poor writing and pedestrian performances from the whole cast including a surprisingly lackluster cameo from Jamie Foxx, playing himself. It just doesn't work on any level. Save your time and skip this mess.
