The absolute truth about the movie "Red Tails." Black people wake up!!! Your supporting a movie just because it has an all Black cast? Its plot and dialog was absolutely awful!!!

[MizzDiamonds]

Thing is the marketing was all about guilt, guilt tripping like crazy even sounding like threats. If you don't see it we won't be anymore Black films. warreeva

@anndretta I see what you did there, lol.

@rottenpusse The twisted irony of "roaches" running into the theater just as they run into the cracks of the ghettos.......was just me being a bit brash and sarcastic. We need to stop falling for the "okie-doke" is all I'm sayin'.

This video captured my exact sentiments about the movie!..it was not all that great.

You should all go see Pariah. All black cast, black writer and director. Support black actors!

I could barely focus on the story with that horrible script. And those characters (Ne-yo... sigh).... and that arial, bold font in the beginning. This is everything my friends and I said while watching the movie.

yes yes!!!!! Exactly! Wrote about all this in my blog "Shit (some) black people said during and after seeing Red Tails"

[anndretta]

Thank you for sharing this video! I found it very amusing and was thoroughly entertained :-)

Hmmm… too bad the Black woman in this animation is such a "one dimensional" character… The "Complaining-black-woman-with-­no-justification-for-her-unple­asant-attitude". If she was actually written to have a "believable" argument, perhaps she could have given voice to the why Red Tails is so important and actually a good film.

@eljewell you're right about the producer/director not wanting to sensationalize and just tell a straight story. But my friend a straight story on FILM is boring. I went to this movie ready to cheer for these bruthas. 20 minutes into it and I was restless and it continue to the end. If this had been a story about jews it would not have been so flat.

This was so on point. Almost everything this sims character said, my brother and I said in the car ride home after the movie. The script was wrong. The casting was wrong. And it's sad to say but George Lucas' touch (which you can see in some of the editing) was wrong.

This guys said EVERYTHING I felt... I mean every last thing. I was so underwhelmed. I looked around the movie theater and wondered if I was the only one felt more pissed off than proud. That $100 mil should have been invested in a scriptwriter, casting director, and team of acting coaches.
