Looks cute and Taron Egerton has a magnificent singing voice, BUT the story line of a young gorilla whose dad is in a gang, commits robbery, ends up in jail, and whose gang members wear gold chains is a poor choice: were all other animal species unavailable? What next, a light-colored gorilla as President and unarmed gorillas being shot in the back by cops? Why are the cops rhinoceroses and not pigs?
shareYEAAHHHH, Hamsters in Zootopia, so racist too.
shareGood lord! Are you really this big of an idiot SJW? The term 'gorilla' is one used often to describe a big, muscular person. In the old Bugs Bunny cartoons, the side-kick to the little gangster was a large, gorilla-like person. Oh, and he was white.
You deranged SJW pinheads spend your every waking moment trying to invent things to be offended by. Make a New Years resolution: shut up more.
Yes, you do seem like a racist.
sharethis is some low grade trolling.
the accents were inner city London and white.
or did you mean whites were being unfairly associated with criminality?
if you're not trolling then you've just projected your own racism and stereotypes.

Woo-Hoo, Silent Bob's dead, long live me, Internet Gûy!
The OP is obviously a complete idiot. Gorilla is a term long used for big built men - especially thugs/gangsters - so their species makes perfect sense.
But, if the OP has a chip on his shoulder and sees himself as a monkey (which is also a term of endearment for a child), then perhaps this idiot has a point... regardless of how erroneous.
Oh, and flashy gold is the sure sign of a newly-rich retard with (a truck-load) more money than sense - i.e. a drug dealer, footballer... dare I even say it? Rapper.
Note: these all come in more than one colour.
EDIT: I came here to check out what the film was about and got suckered into posting by the OP/troll. I've now seen the film and I can't see anything wrong with the gold on display. In fact, it's more akin to Italian mobsters from late '80s films than Mr. T.
The OP needs to get banned for trying to make some racial bulls**t out of a perfectly good kids' film.
So by your logic, anyone involved in theater is also gay since Buster Move (a pig which in your opinion should have been a cop???) is a very flamboyant "gay" stereotype even though he's a straight character?
Does that help show how stupid your comment is as far a digging too deep and looking for racism ? By repeating the same thing you said, except with a different character? Can you can understand on how you can find stereotypes in anything?
Clearly you've never had a single black friend. As a white guy growing up in the ghetto, I met just as many white people that fit your description as black people. It's not a racial trait, it's a community trait. Especially considering that they were based more on English gangs (which share a lot of the hip-hop communities traits for gold chains / robbery / except a little more punk mixed in.
Seriously dude, get out of your bubble and explore the world. I have a feeling you're one of those people that probably has never been more than 20 miles from your home town and all of your "cultural" experience comes from movies, fox news, and television shows.
really?
Are you kidding, right?
