Review of Green Book (2018) by Bikerjames — 11 Feb 2019

Did I feel a little manipulated after watching Green Book? Yes. So what. Nothing wrong with making a movie that makes you feel good about race relations. A refreshing role reversal taking place in 1962 where the African American is the educated, sophisticated person teaching the prejudice bully from the Bronx about life (and vice versa in some cases).

Although they run into the usual cliched circumstances while touring the South, the movie is basically about two opposites who become friends and learn from each other. A lot of humor along the way and terrific performances all around, especially from both leads.
