Back to the Drawing Board: 9 Black Films That Were Disappointing…
Brooklyn’s Finest
Antonie Fuqua’s “Good cops gone bad” film had the opportunity to do big things. It had a great cast (Don Cheadle can make anything awesome), and Brooklyn! What else do you need? But somehow, this movie just became a hot mess withing the first 45 minutes of watching. The characters make horrible, yet predictable decisions all the way through, and there are a lot of unnecessary parts of the film (for instance, having to watch Richard Gere’s prostitute girlfriend have sex with him and random dudes in the longest scenes ever…), including those braids somebody tried to put on Wesley Snipes’s head. In the end, the film was pretty brutal. All the people you want to survive don’t, and everything bad that can happen, does. Once again, predictable. Where’s the fun in that?
Which films would you add to the list?
