Atilla theHunney

Marginal film with Disney’s predictable politically correct nonsense. Set around 1930, the writers feel compelled to cast blacks in prominent roles that are out of historical context. Black attorneys in 1930’s England? Black doctors? Black executive secretaries to a bank president? Seriously? (So why weren’t blond haired blue eyed white guys cast in Black Panther?) There were virtually very few blacks in Europe at this time in general, and England in particular. The black attorney is cast as the good guy trying to protect from the evils of a white villain. This is beyond contrived and offensive. The most egregious scene was towards the end when they just had to show a black man with a white woman as a “couple “on a Ferris wheel. Unbelievable. If that wasn’t enough for the race hustlers and multicultural nut cases in Hollywood, they just had to force the gay message on the audience. At the end of the movie the father has to choose a balloon carefully, under the instruction of the delightful Angela Lansbury. A huge bouquet of colors and the father picks... wait for it... the pink balloon. So this seems odd until two other males come after him— all choosing pink balloons. Not cool. There was a rap style piece that was cringeworthy. The Dance choreography fell short of musical themes. The miscast and out of place characters didn’t even have English accents. Sacrificing a movie on the altar of pc makes it difficult to watch. Is this film even set in an historical era? Which one? What year is it? Where am I? What are these people doing here? So I will be waiting for blond haired, blue eyed white males to be cast as African tribesmen and Tuskegee airman. Until then, listen up Hollywood— stop casting blacks, Asians and Latinos in Robin Hood. They weren’t there. Save your money and watch it on Netflix.
