You See Me Laughin'

I think that the movie You See Me Laughin’ is okay. I really do not like it that much. I definitely would not watch this movie on my own. Out of all of the movies that we could have watched you chose this one? I could think of so many more things that we could have watched. I do not have a clue why you chose this movie for us to watch. For one thing, I do not like the kind of music that the guys in this movie play. The guy that played the guitar with a butter knife sounded horrible in my opinion. I do not see why people would actually pay to hear him play the guitar let alone actually listen to him playing the guitar for free. I do not like the way any of these guys sound playing their type of music (which was the Blues I think). In my opinion, the best sounding music that was in this video came from when that old, fat black guy joined the group with that skinny white guy and a few other people. There music was much better than the rest of the music that was played in this video. I still do not like the music that even they played; I just think that it sounded the best. In my opinion, their music sounded closer to rock than any of the other music that was played in this video. I will listen to a very little bit of rock. That is probably why I like their music the best. I do think that some parts of this movie were funny. Overall, this movie was pretty boring. It was very hard for me to watch it. I also do not like how this movie made black people look. I am not offended at all by this movie, I just do not like the way it portrayed African Americans. I do have a few family members (that live in Florida) that live similar to how the blacks in this movie live. It kind of got on my nerve the way in which most of the black people were looking in this movie. I think that there may have been only one clean looking black person in this movie. That is the young looking boy. He looked to be in his late teen years or in his early twenties. All of the people in this movie acted and talked very country. I can not remember where this movie took place at. I am sure that has something to do with why the people acted country. It really gets on my nerves to see black people act and look the way they do in this movie. The guy that plays the guitar towards the end of the movie was one of the people that got on my nerve the most. From the way his teeth were to the way he dressed, I did not like that. I also did not like the way his hair, the way he talks, and his attitude towards life. I did not like the way he really did not care about his health and the way he did not think that he needed to go to the doctor. Maybe this aspect of him got on my nerves because I do have family members that have this mentality. I really do not have that much of a problem with this movie, I just needed find something to write about to fulfill the five hundred words that we have to write.
