Rotten Tomatoes gave it an 8% for the movie.
Serves you right for not casting Asian actors! Hah! I bet Asian actors can put a much better show than having Whites in it.
It's insulting to know that M. Night Shyamalan decided to cast Whites in Asian characters. All this while I've chosen to remain silent about it but after seeing how much money the movie is making it seems like a big disgrace. All this money they're making shows that it's okay to discriminate Asians. I just dread to know that because of that they're planning to make a money spinning franchise out of it.
Watching the original TV series was so good because they had a show which had Asians as heroes. Not many Asian kids get shows like that to watch and relate to. Now we get this mess.
It would have been a crime to cast whites and blackface them as blacks. But from this movie I guess that yellowfacing whites as Asians doesn't seem wrong.
There are so many talented Asian actors who are fluent in English. Why couldn't they cast them?
It just feels such a shame that race discrimination is still happening today. But then again, it always has, right? Even in Malaysia, sadly.
