As enjoyable and refreshing as it is, there's a certain bite lacking in the delivery. Jul 10, 2015 | Rating: 3/5

The best moments get to the heart of Simien's thesis that what is supposed to be post-racial America isn't all that much different from what came before. Jan 5, 2015 | Rating: 3/5

Dear White People deploys a full arsenal of intellectual weaponry to talk about race and much more in a way most can't or won't. It is hilarious. It is brilliant. It is vital. And it's Simien's first outing. More please. Jul 30, 2019 | Rating: A | Full Review…

All in all it was a good movie. It was funny and served its purpose, I don't think I'll be telling folks this is the movie they need to see for 2014 but it's one I would suggest. Jun 12, 2018 | Full Review…
