David Cohen has a lengthy–and damning–review of the new, Starbucks financed movie, Akeelah and the Bee:
On the other hand, I turned to my wife two-thirds through the movie and whispered that Akeelah was the most racist movie I had seen in a long time. After the movie was over, she told me that it was among the most sexist movies the had ever seen.
Sounds like a sure-fire Oscar winner. (No, seriously.)
