Before I put in any spoiler information let me say, This movie SUCKS!
Let me put this another way. I am not sure who I am more upset at. Myself for requesting this DVD from another library, the 2nd library (Skokie Illinois) for honoring my request and sending it to my library, or the Arlington Heights library for accepting the tainted DVD and letting me check it out.
We have to protect or youth. There HAS to BE checks and balances somewhere!!! LOL
I remember Esther Rolle and John Amos had a problem while acting on GOOD TIMES TV show. Their contention was GOOD TIMES aired negative stereotypes. Well, J.J Evans (Mr. Dynamite) looks like Barack Obama AND his WHOLE family when compared to ANY character in this HERO film.
And that is the SPOILER!
I am in my late 40's, Black, and live in a White neighborhood. (whole life.) I am saying this because I realize that some people's ONLY exposure to other cultures is the movies and television. In other words, they BELIEVE this CRAP shown in HERO.
I am going to do everyone a favor and not list the "issues" I have with this film. I am thinking Cicely Tyson needed to get paid and said, "What the hell. Why not.) I am not mad at her.
Instead I would like to leave you with this on this fine March 2015 night. GOOGLE... #1) The Richest Black Man in the World – Aliko Dangote! This guy is from...wait for it...wait for it....NIGERIA! Yes, that same Nigeria. No one on the African continent even has $10 billion and he has 25 Billion! (Subject to change) LOL
I do not know if that fact is important or not, but at least it got me to stop complaining about the HERO film.
