a bit racist?
PostedJanuary 21, 2010
FranktheCheetah
from Prescott
The effects were stunning, no lack of genius in that respect. Yet, the plot development was somewhat predictable and had a lack of thought in comparison to the genius behind the special effects. From the beginning, I noted the pan-afro context in which the characteres existed and the common africanesque bone structure that composed all their faces. It was a story of European-looking people *against* African-looking people OR European-looking people *as the saviors* of the African-looking people. More anti-racist assumptions could have made for a less racist movie. Giving way to more interesting, less predictable plot dynamics.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
