_You People_ is a cold-blooded comedy filled with miserable characters who are all horrible human beings. The performances are fine if you were meant to walk away hating everyone in this film. Worst of all, this entire scenario can only end one way. There is eventually a moment of sincerity and humility, but it feels like too little too late. _You People_ is two hours of people being dicks to one another in unfunny fashion with a rushed bow filled with forced heartfelt predictability tacked on at the very end. **Full review:** https://boundingintocomics.com/2023/01/27/you-people-review-obnoxious-comedy-squashed-into-forced-heartfelt-predictability/

You People is a painfully average movie. Very average performances mixed with a bad script. The whole story felt as if they were checking off scenarios from a social issues list. I am all for telling these types of stories about race and sexuality, but the message is so blatant that it takes precedent over the plot. It results in a very manufactured experience. Despite my issues with the story, the movie was just not that funny. There were times I did laugh, I can admit, but that will happen with the amount of jokes they were spitting out. I didn’t really have a connection with main two characters either. Overall, just a very forgettable movie that is a disappointment with the talent involved. Score: 45% Verdict: Poor

"You People" is a culture/race clash comedy that revolves around a mixed-race couple and their respective parents. Despite the cast, which includes several SNL alumni, having the talent to deliver comedic performances, the film falls short in delivering engaging and meaningful humor. The presentation style reminiscent of a "GTA 5" cutscene, along with the opening credits depicted in a "Photoshop speedpaint" style, also left something to be desired. Additionally, Eddie Murphy's portrayal of a self-insert of Kenya Barris, who heavily focuses on the dislike of bi-racial people, detracted from the overall viewing experience. Ultimately, I was not impressed with "You People."
