The lead Jim Sturgess needed a dialect coach to learn how to speak with an American accent. Plenty of Asian Americans can speak fluent American Dialects. This movie is racist.
No offense, but i think this is racist casting. Hollywood needs to stop doing this. They need to give credit to the real guy. The guy is Jeff Ma.This is what I call racist casting.
I understand your point, but you're missing my point here. The real guy was an Asian guy, but they replaced him with a white actor instead. They should have used an Asian actor. There a lot of them out there, but because Hollywood is greedy and that's what makes it racist.
Jeff ma said he didn't want an asian guy to play his role! He said he wanted a white guy one of them he named was Brad Pitt. but when he met Jim he said no one could have played his character better!
Don't pay to see the movie, "21. download it, and give it to everyone u know.
Most of the MIT crew portrayed in the movie were originally Asian, even the lead role. Due to forecasted ticket sales, most of the team had to be transformed to non-Asian. Unfortunately, by doing so, Hollywood perpetuates the stereotype that Asians only do chop chop Karate and wear glasses along with their calculators.
Why can't an Asian lead a big role outside of kung fu action?
I totally agree with you, but there is still people in that world who are unable to accept differences and who misjudge everyone. It is true that the movie perpetuates that `` stereotype`` of asian people but everyone is victim of a stereotype : For example, all arabs are considered like terrorists, english like snobs, blacks like violent people, etc...

Just so everyone knows this movie is highly dramatized and made up, what the MIT blackjack team did was 100% legal and they never once had problems with security aside from being banned by them and being harassed, no violence or detention whatsoever, they didnt even have to let them photograph them. they all got audited too, that was the big thing that scared them more than the security, but they did everything by the book so they kept everything. and everyone was really asian too.
well spacey gets arrests. ben loses all his money and cant do this no more cause he gets caught but his buddies starts to do it for him. ben also continues to fuck the girl. and he gets a full ride to harvard med! great movie!
have you ever thought that what he was writing may spoil it for you?....i read 2 words and knew what he was doing so i stopped....dont be a jack ass and say that shit to em...its ur fault for reading it
shit my bad i thought earlier that since i ruined part of it i might as well ruin the rest! but dont worry i just ruined the important part there is still the small details like spacer teaches nonlinear equations as a class!
i agree with you like i was trying to help people who want to know the ending before hand so they are not stun when they see it! i mean your right its your own eyes do what the fuck you want with em!
What you're trying to say is that if we were watching the 6th Sense or something like tha, you would tell everyone the ending just so they wouldn't be...stunned? Alright, I'll apologize to you for my rude behaviour but understand that you just ruined it for me and some others as well. Maybe put a spoiler warning or SOMETHING to indicate you're going to ruin the movie.
-_- How is it racist...just because the corrupt guy is a black guy? That isn't racism...I bet if all of the good people were black and the bad guy was white nobody would say it was racism but since the bad guy was black all of you over-concerned black people will blame racism. You misuse the word Racist or Racism...
This is a true story.... a prof. at an ivy league college convinced his fave five students to stay after class to work with him on an interpersonal experiment that he was thinking of for years. They all learned the easy science of card counting, and they all actually went to Vegas and tried it out. The result was that they did effectively learn to read the system of card appearance via setting up on a table, then switching in till they won big. This isn't illegal, and is protected against now.

The real life lead was Asian not white. That's like making Coach Carter white. This is a racist movie.
