Excellent movie, but…


… something surprisingly silly, contradictory and unreal spoiled overall good impression. Jack's somehow "as usual" profanity sounded authentic, but suddenly he gets berserk at mentioning of word Ni66er and similar with his cousin Vincent - In an instance, gangsters miraculously became language prudent PC proponents, sort of NAACP or Civil Rights activists.

Such surreal insert of PC activism, or personal inclination, from otherwise amazingly talented D'Angelo, has been absolutely pathetic and pretentious. I wasn't sure if I heard it correctly, so I re-winded that sequence few times and yep, I heard it correctly. With all due respect, Mr. D'Angelo, what the hack has been the purpose?
