White Dudes Can't Rap

I'll share my thoughts, but the thoughts of an individual can be jaded. People looking for a broad perspective of all who attended White Men Can't Rap at the Philadelphia Film festival should consider the rating given by the Audience Ballot Results. The festival web site reports the 600 attendees rated it 3.9 out of 5, with a score of 4 representing Very Good. I think the judges at the Philly Fest who awarded the film Best Feature in the FestIndies Division were looking beyond the technical flaws (audio) and acknowledging the filmmaker's evolving creative vision.Personally, even with the clear need for additional post-production work, it was a high-risk, adventurous indie comedy that managed to deliver the laughs even in its unrefined state. Good to see John Canada Terrell back on the big screen and Clifton Powell again showing his range by doing whacked out comedy after his serious role in Ray. Assuming the producers straighten out the technical glitches, keep this on your radar screen as the surprise Indie comedy of 2005 or 2006.
