If you’re easily offended this isn’t the movie for you. I did enjoy the movie although it wasn’t the laugh out loud comedy all the way through as the trailer implies. It will, however, have you choking on your drink when those letters are read out loud. One thing I didn’t like about the movie, and this is becoming more frequent nowadays is changing race/ethnicity of characters based in real life people. History is history, in the era this movie was set in it was highly unlikely that black people would have been enjoying the same equalities as social freedoms in the UK as white people or having de facto relationships with white people. Highly unlikely an Indian would be working as a police offer, much less a female police officer. Can we please just go back to keeping it real with the ethnicity of the characters when it comes to movies based on history on real life events? There would be an uproar if a Caucasian or Asian played the part of an African slave as it would be taking away from the many African men, women and children who were forced to endure it. Cut it with the politically correct BS, our history was offensive in many ways to today’s society but we cannot change what was. Any movie where this occurs will automatically lose a star from me no matter how enjoyable it was. We can’t change history but let’s keep it real and find other ways for people of diverse backgrounds to be equally represented in the entertainment industry.
