Don't get me wrong this isn't a necessarily a terrible movie, but I was rather disappointed how this film coped out from actually dealing with some of the prevalent racial issues within society. The characters were too flat an unbelievable, the situations too fantastic to seem plausible, and that god-awful music seemed to dictate when I should experience moments of intense emotion. The treatment of this complex societal problem was too general and contrived. What is left over in the viewer is merely scenes of suspense and wonder, a Hollywood film a little too pretentious to be a true commentary.
