Negative Positive
Title: Amazingly Poor
Review: A little sweet 5 year old, running around in underwear is how this opens, and does not get any better. The little child has very few speaking parts, so that when the film gets to the point where her father dies, it almost seemed like child abuse -- like gratuitous tragedy somehow. As an African American woman, I was excited about seeing a film with a character that looked like me when I was little. But was I ever disappointed. And why was it necessary for hush-puppy's father to curse God's name time and time again, albeit, under his breath? Just poor and I wish I had never seen it.
Is the review positive or negative?
