Discuss Confess, Fletch

A barely above average comedy (if you can call it that) slash crime movie. Ultimately not that interesting but I got through it in a couple of sittings and sure enough they just had to put in the stuff you have probably come to expect from mainstream movies these days. I'm talking about the scene where the main character asks for a female cop's real name and she tells him he shouldn't be afraid of his name and continues: "There's a lot of other things you could be ashamed of. Like your arrogance, your white privilege, your feet." I suppose this is way of hedging your bets. Hiring a cast of mainly caucasian people because that is probably the movies largest target demographic and then lecturing the same people watching the movie about the vices of 'white privilege'. Kind of hypocritical someone might say.

Not to mention the movie was boring! Even without the woke garbage the movie was lame. And the way the mystery was solved made no sense.

But you're exactly right. That kind of anti-white hate has no place in movies. And the female cop who said that to Fletch was brown (middle eastern) not white making it even more clear that it was an act of anti-white hate.

There were also other instances of talking down to the main character because of his race.

Why do you think that? There are plenty of movies out there that demonize other races, why should whites not be invited to the party?
