Didn't see a single white person...This movie is kind of racist.

Might be hard to believe, but white people aren't everywhere

If irony was made of strawberries, we'd all be drinking a lot of smoothies right now.

There doesn't seem to be any race other than African-American's in this movie. There is no such thing as a neighborhood 100%. There would be some latinos or whites or asians or middle easter people. I get that it's a movie made by African-Americans, but you can have some other races in the background. Or have someone in a small role be a different race. I mean a whole town and no one but black people. It seems a little fake to me. I mean it's not like a small town in the middle of nowhere. This looks like it's close to a city. The movie was filmed in Louisiana, right? There aren't only black people in Louisiana.

There is a such thing as a neighboorhood that is all one race/ethnicity? Ever heard of chinatown or korea town. Blacks are more likely to live in segregated ghettos than any other race. Ever heard of white-flight? look it up. Learn some sociology. You really need to get out and learn more.

I guess you didn't watch the trailer, there are a few in the crowd scene. As for why there are none in the list of actors in the film, I guess they only have non-speaking roles ( extras).

Don't hate though, this has happened to non-caucasian actors for years. Watch Stargate Atlantis or Universe, I don't see to many non-whites on those shows. Or they are so bleached they might as well be white.

So white people only get to be extras?

Ha

We can't say where are the white people, but you can say where are the black people?

Nice.

The back up cop making the arrest outside of the sneaker store, and that is just for starters.

I'll tell you what I said in another thread: They couldn't get any white people to do this movie because they were all in Step Up 3D.

These threads are so tiring. As if there is a black person in every film with just white ppl. There are so many ignorant ppl on these boards.

I take it you weren't paying attention when the movie started but when they were talking to people about what they would do if they won the lottery, there were at least 1 or 2 white guys.
