The gap between 4 and half star and 4 star a lot closer than the gap between a 4 star and a 3 and half imo

    I was torn between 3.5 and 4 stars just cause the ending felt unexpected and just lacklustre. But I guess it was just the hard truth of the matter fr fr

    They dared to answer a question no one asked maybe enough what is the black British (carribbean ) family experience like but keep it real without falling to lazy tropes and stereotypes  

    Real human film

    Also real funny

    More enjoyable than not but he really couldn’t have hammered some of those points more if he tried. The slideshow technique would’ve been better if it wasn’t so overused to the point of being tedious and disrupting the flow and transition of scenes.  Essentially making it a pseudo history lesson.But I did think it was employed well when the viet soldiers were chastising the GIs.

    But the irony or logic? of the film lays in how he’s gone and done…
