I did not find out about this on TV but through the web and by friends. This is not primarily a race issue because if you live in an area where money can be made by locking you up, you can be black, asian, hispanic, or yes even white.
Once in the movie Production was minor behind the message of the movie. Im not sure if it will ever get a wide release. Yet based on Beyonce fighting in Obsessed and the fact that Nicole Beharie looked great for the 3 kids she had........from experience I can believe the story behind American Violet then the much more predictable storyline of Obsessed. How about Beyonce's dad and Magic Johnson put more money behind a movie like this then movies just to make money
If you are a fan of the Indy movies and the Mummy movies you will like this. It lives up to the Indy movies of the past, I would not rate it as the better of the past three. Although it holds it on and brings a lot of to a close from past history. I like the tease at the end far as leaving the door open and using Shia LaBeouf in future movies believe me it starts with the door opening and the symbol of the hat. I will leave it at that!!
