Akeelah and the Bee (2006)
" . . . uniquely thrilling as we watch a young Black girl come alive, not through song or dance but on her own mental steam."
James Hill
Tomato A
American Violet (2009)
"It's not enough for a movie to have a Black cast for it to be good, it must have good writing, engaging stories and impassioned actors. This film has all three."
Clay Cane
ATL (2006)
"ATL relishes the fact that most people don't bother to know Black teenager's dreams and hopes, and takes its time to show them in loud, vivid color."
Tomato B+
Avatar (2009)
"One of the best films of the year. However, Avatar's 'message' of human greed and unnecessary needs is nearly laughable considering the flick is one of the most expensive films of all time."
