Funny, but not about the RIGHT thing!
31 January 2000 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I felt the film was well directed and well acted but I felt at times they were saying success turns you white. The guy was a news reporter and he should speak well and encourage his girlfriend and homie to do like wise around the white folk. Play the game, get rich and laugh about it later. I'm from South Central and I own my own production company. When I'm with the homies I use slang and feel free to speak the way I want but when I'm doing business I speak professionally. Now the guy should never forget where he came from and he shouldn't sell his soul to be successful but speaking well and becoming successful does not equal turning WHITE!
