Our suggestions
The American Society of Magical Negroes is a fresh, satirical comedy about a young man, Aren, who is recruited into a secret society of magical Black people who dedicate their lives to a cause of utmost importance: making white people's lives easier.
"The American Society of Magical Negroes is a fantasy comedy with a rather original idea: it follows the journey of Aren (Justice Smith, from Detective Pikachu), who is recruited into a secret society of magical black people who dedicate their lives to a cause of utmost importance. Although it follows the playbook of this type of film, with the look, format, and story of an afternoon TV movie, the feature film is a good pastime that brings fantasy to black culture."
