Folks misunderstood the film as being racist. In fact, it's a wicked satire of the way Hollywood(especially Disney) portrayed black folks. Very clever film and it received praise from Spike Lee and Quentin Tarantino.

Oh really? Interesting. I've had this 4 months now and still have not watched it.

I need 2 free up some time.
