616761, I think that I am going to hate this movie for lack of authenticity Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Fri Jun-29-12 10:04 AM
Spike has mentioned before that he didn't grow up in a particularly religious household and was somewhat skeptical of black religion so when I heard about the alleged plot twist I got the feeling that he was going to depict black religion with the same condescending inauthentic POV that he depicted Southern People in Crooklyn.
I hoping it will be better than I am expecting, but I am preparing for the worse.
In general, Spike is at his worse when he writes about topics that he only has a surface level understanding of (Corporate Culture in "She Hate Me", World War II in "Miracle of St. Anna").
