What is the criteria qualifying an African American movie?

But of the ones that come to mind, Boyz N The Hood was probably the best. Other than moments of preachiness the plot was really good.

Do The Right Thing is critically acclaimed but I didn't totally understand the message being sent. I thought I was following along well until Mookie throws the trash can into the pizza joint, and then I was officially lost.

Does 12 years a slave count as an African American movie? That was great too.

the best nonviolent black movie is soul food, lol, every person will probably choose smoething with violence

antwon fisher is ****in exellent aswell, but i like john q the most

You are damn right about Soul Food being up there. I liked Antoine Fischer too but John Q wasn't realistic enough.

Any movie that falls under Black cinema. I would say yes.

There are too many but straight off my head, Dead Presidents? Menace to society and Set it Off. i cried watching Set it off.

Laurence Tate is my favorite black actor.

Dead Presidents was hella nice. The younger sister had a seductive vibe to her.

I notice Freedom is notable absent in here. So is JimRaynor, Szef, etc.

I have a soft spot for Friday, Bad Boys II, and a bunch of Eddie Murphy movies, but I couldn't say they were as well done as Boyz N The Hood

Boyz N The Hood is probably the only one that makes it into my top 10 movies tbh
