You People
Interracial relationships can be challenging and can challenge one's assumptions. This is where the appeal of You People, a Netflix comedy, comes in as it addresses the difficulties and awkwardness of interracial romance. Directed by Kenya Barris and written by Barris and Jonah Hill, the film follows a white Jewish man and a Black Muslim woman as they navigate the cultural exchange and conflict that comes with their relationship. However, the film falls short in its execution as it feels improvised and disjointed with no real point to make. The cringe comedy and ignorance portrayed in the film comes across as insincere and disingenuous. Despite a strong cast of comedic legends, the film fails to deliver consistent laughs and ultimately comes across as boring.
