We're having chicken for dinner....

Warning: Spoilers
A white corporate executive is surprised to discover that he has a black teenage son

The son was born as a result of a relationship the exec had many years ago, and now his new found son can't wait to be adopted into the, almost-exclusively-white community of, San Marino, California......

Oh Denzel, if you have any skeletons in your closet,this has to be the icing on the cake.

It's one of the most offensive films I have ever had the displeasure to have seen, it should have been called Racism: A Kooky Comedy...

The writers think that things like sexual abuse, oppression, casual racism, and typecasting is the height of hilarity.

Segal spends the majority of the film double taking every five minutes, with a look on his face more or less saying 'My son is B-b-b-b-b-black???' and looking embarrassed.

Jack Warden appears as the one who has the big office, and he has a face of disgust throughout the whole shambles.

It's disgusting. There are jokes about chicken, Washington spends the film as the subliminal innocent party, but if you look a little deeper into the film, he is depicted as nothing more than a metaphorical slave, living in a garage, and then showing the rich white man, how the other half live.

It's in my top ten worse films I have ever had the displeasure of seeing, only just pipped to the post by The Sweetest Thing.

Should have been called Birth Of A Nation 2: Nothing's Changed folks!!!

Vomit inducing.
