After hearing praise about this movie, especially along the lines of being a good "black" movie, I decided to watch it in the end. To make it short: the movie disappoints.
So the overall story seems to be the lead-up to a "black face party" hosted by a - predominantly white - organizer group that organizes parties annually with varying themes, but could not think of one for now. It is a story full of intrigue, with the main characters being the gay black write with a white core (from the TV Series "Everyone hates Chris"), the ambitious colored son, smoking crack and with a white, whiny girlfriend, of the equally colored dean, a black-panther-like girl that is academically failing apparently and trying to cover this all with (a) becoming house president of the predominantly black house and (b) publicly protesting against measure that would allow white people to join said house - which, in essence, is racism as well.
Now, the story sounds complicated enough, and would be interesting on its own. Unfortunately, the movie does not deliver. Much of the time, the movie is overly draggy and boring to watch; I struggled to get through the whole movie. The story moves along at a snail's pace sometimes (or seems to), and much of the situational humor falls flat.
tl;dr do not watch.
