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

Behind those three big, inciting words is a film that's as comedic as it is confrontational and as universal as it is intimate, a new-school satire about black identity that's more inclusive than exclusive. Mar 22, 2019 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

Dear White People embodies the virtues of the truly independent film, substituting strong writing, good performances from a largely unfamiliar cast, and a fresh, distinctive vision for the blockbuster's hefty budget. Nov 21, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
