The B-list black thriller is a staple of the summer. Big name black stars in terrifyingly “realistic” situations have graced our screens in the hottest months of the year for some time now. Last year’s Traffik and Breaking In followed in the footsteps of films such as 2009’s Obsessed. …

This week, thanks mostly to Kevin Hart, I realized that I probably shouldn’t be writing movie reviews. They’re hard to write, my grammar is shaky at best, and no matter how bad the movie is, I’m a sucker for an ensemble. Put a bunch of down on their luck misfits…

It is not often that I leave the movie theater feeling empty, especially when the movie I’m watching is based on a true story. But as I watched White Boy Rick, I couldn’t help but feel like something was missing. If you watch the trailer for the film, you would…
