Atom User Reviews for The American Society of Magical Negroes
Great concept and it wasn’t heavy handed. It was funny and thoughtful. The lead actor did a great job. His whole character embodied what this film was about. The ending is ____ too. 😉
I'm so happy with this
I was so excited to see this film, but it was just random from what it possibly could have been. It held back on being complex and was derived into what seemed like a spoof on racial dynamics. I'd give it a C for effort.
Metacritic
Whatever the intent, the execution isn’t all the way there, and that’s the biggest disappointment of all.
[An] unevenly written but good-looking directorial debut that gradually runs out of steam.
A socially conscious romantic comedy, and if those two modes don’t sound compatible, [writer/director] Libii does nothing to alter that impression.
