The American Society of Magical Negroes | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

The American Society of Magical Negroes mostly hangs there like one of Aren’s textile pieces: Odd but not intriguing, inspired in places, a bit confusing.

It is a film that always seems to be on the edge of becoming a bloated corpse, kept alive only by the sheer power of its outstanding concept, which deserves a better overall execution than the one given here.

"Audacity is something that it is incredibly thirsty for. It should sip like liquor, but it really just is a cup of milk. Milk isn't the worst thing in the world, but how can I be lit over a cup of milk when I expected liquor in my cup?"

The guiding sentiment of The American Society of Magical Negroes is a powerful one. The film’s premise, amusing as it can be, buries its most compelling takeaway while inviting difficult questions it isn’t prepared to answer.
