I'd like to call this a poor man's American History X, but I fear that might somehow be racist...

This film tries to be socially and politically deep but ends up as shallow as a mall pond. The problem is the writing of the characters and the rather predictable acting. We get the impression the actors are going through the motions but nobody is really feeling the script. The morals are also paper thin without addressing a lot of the root causes of the problems these college students are facing.

John Singleton stumbles badly with a terribly awkward but well-intentioned drama about political correctness and race at a contemporary university.

an amazing compilation of 90's actors, but the acting is mostly sub-par. the plot is amazingly contrived, and unrealistically polarizing for the characters, it's almost comically so. a couple cheesy moments here and there, and a couple of nuggets of good stuff too.

Welcome to Stereotype University, we've got you covered. Pretty melodramatic, cheeseball approach towards some serious subjects, but most of the cast is likable enough that it remains watchable.

after seeing Boyz and the hood (which I loved at the time) I was really looking forward to what turned into a VERY preachy piece of pap. Not QUITE in the same league as CRASH for preachiness, but close

This film has its heart in the right place, but its characters are broad archetypes and consequently the storyline feels forced and more like an afterschool special than a compelling feature film (it doesn't help that the soundtrack cues are laughably blunt). There's a good film to be made about self-segregation in colleges and modern racism, but this just isn't it.

Its a disgusting film, but I guess the whole idea is to wake us up about conflicts between different races. I just think they took it to the extreme. The one positive is that the soundtrack holds my favorite Outkast song of all time (Phobia).
