You People Review What We Know Far About It

“You Individuals,” another interpretation of “Think about Who’s Coming to Supper” from the maker of “Dark ish” and co-composed by star Jonah Slope, is a shocking failure, an assortment of capable individuals searching for a film to make. It just requirements a little change to turn into a wide farce of comedies like “The Bare Firearm” that play on racial generalizations and contrasts. The majority of those senseless motion pictures really feel more genuine than this relationship satire, which doesn’t feel truly sufficiently to cause your hair to stand on end.

Nobody talks like this. No one acts along these lines. Furthermore, assuming that a film will poke fun at racial contrasts like “You Individuals” does, it ought to basically attempt to be honest so the jokes don’t feel so shallow. On the off chance that not, it’s simply playing with controversial problems, generalizations, and weak jokes that dolts tell at bars. There are such countless skilled individuals in “You Individuals” that I like, and “Dark ish” was significantly more clever and more honed than this film for a couple of years, that it’s practically stunning the way in which profoundly unfunny it is.

Slope plays Ezra Cohen, who has a Dark companion named Mo (played by Sam Jay) and together they discuss how individuals of various races are unique. It’s one of those digital broadcasts where individuals discuss life and issues, yet Barris and Slope’s content sounds wrong all along.

It’s like they never paid attention to any webcasts with racial subjects, since they filled the scenes with abnormal exchange that sounds so prearranged (when the entire thought is that these web recordings are easygoing, spur of the moment discussions). It’s likewise a terrible method for setting up what will occur straightaway. “The film appears to have to show that this person has a decent Dark companion. Try not to fear him.”

At the point when Ezra gets into some unacceptable vehicle accidentally on the grounds that he thought it was his Uber, he meets Amira Mohammed (Lauren London) and they begin dating. A half year after the fact, Ezra has chosen to wed Amira and is preparing to ask her folks, Akbar (Eddie Murphy) and Fatima, for consent (Nia Long).

Akbar takes a gander at Ezra and concludes immediately that he isn’t the perfect individual for his little girl. He then, at that point, attempts to break Ezra by setting him in circumstances on the right track out of a sitcom that are intended to make him come up short, such as putting him on a ball court, making him wear some unacceptable pack tone to a barbershop, or in any event, going with him on his lone wolf party trip.

Murphy plays it all so straight, as though he were in a show about racial contrasts. I concur that you shouldn’t wink at the camera, however such countless different entertainers in this film do it that it seems like Murphy is in an alternate film. It’s only one of the big tone issues that Barris has as a chief. He never truly understood what sort of film he was making alright to tell his cast. Nobody is in total agreement, which makes it abnormally entertaining starting with one scene then onto the next and now and again even in a similar beat.

A film like “You Individuals” requirements to show the opposite side of the story, and Shelley (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and Arnold, Ezra’s folks, do that (David Duchovny). Duchovny generally remains behind the scenes, yet he has a couple of entertaining lines.


Louis-Dreyfus plays Amira’s “other troublesome parent.” Despite the fact that this is a social critique, the point is fascinating on the grounds that Shelley plays a lady who just sees the outer layer of Dark culture. Late in the film, Amira says that Shelley sees her like another toy. I wish the film had the guts to investigate more the way in which individuals like Shelley can be keen on Dark culture yet never attempt to grasp it.

Slope and Barris are continuously concocting intriguing thoughts and afterward rapidly continuing on toward a simple, not extremely amusing joke. The exchange in “You Individuals” seems like it was made by a machine all along, particularly in an early scene with weird appearances from celebrities like Elliott Gould, Hal Linden, and Richard Benjamin.

The film has an off-kilter beat that feels so constrained that it caused me to feel awful. In addition to the fact that the discourse sounds counterfeit, yet the film is likewise cut such that detracts from its comedic mood. Scenes are cut along with gaudy designs that I believe are intended to be restless yet make it seem to be a sketch parody show than a genuine film.

“You Individuals” has a smart thought and an incredible cast, which is a disgrace. We’re expected for a satire about how various societies conflict when individuals of various races get together, yet this isn’t it. “You Individuals” couldn’t care less about any of the thoughts it raises. All things considered, it generally attempts to get a modest chuckle or begin a graceless discussion.

Only two hours of terrible jokes attempt to be characters yet don’t work. There are terrible comedies constantly, yet it harms more when a content is headed toward the point that it doesn’t work for entertainers who are basically as skilled and agreeable as Slope, Murphy, and Louis-Dreyfus.
