You People

What to Know

Critics Consensus

You People has an outstanding cast and plenty of comedic potential -- both mostly wasted on a picture that dithers between social commentary and romantic comedy without fully committing to either.

Audience Says

A cringe comedy that's mostly just cringe, You People runs in repetitive circles and rarely gives its very funny stars anything deserving of their talents.

Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's so funny. I don't know if it'll change race relations, but it'll make you laugh. Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com Now, there are enough thoughtful screen examinations of racial politics along with normalized visions of inclusive casting to make "You People" stand out as a gormless throwback. Feb 4, 2023 Full Review Noah Berlatsky Chicago Reader The film is much more interested in social embarrassment cringe and gags than it is in any sort of close examination of how racism affects interracial couples. Feb 2, 2023 Full Review Rachel Wagner Rachel's Reviews (YouTube) Wastes a talented cast on unbelievable characters that are always trying to score political points. A real missed opportunity Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Ilan Preskovsky Because Everyone Else Has One (blog) Any yet, there's just something unbearably sanctimonious about this film; a sense of self-righteousness about its racial attitudes that is tone-deaf at best and genuinely, alarmingly hypocritical, at worst. Rated: 0/10 Aug 16, 2023 Full Review Matthew Creith Matinee With Matt "You People" has a lot going for it and is one of the funnier movies that Netflix has in its current catalog of new content. It also feels genuine, with the Los Angeles background making for a different take on a city mostly stereotyped for glitz. Jul 25, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Laura Lauren London is delightful and funny. Jonah is clever and funny as usual. Eddie is funny as always. I love to see him in roles we are not used to. love the proof matter and the discussion it provokes. appreciated seeing these perspectives on the big screen discussed in a healthy way. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Ina Hilariously funny, great cast, beautifully shot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Simply awful....this is the standard of modern cinema in 1 movie Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/24 Full Review Josh H A terrible film about two groups of people, that seem to hate everyone else that's not in their group of people, fight it out to see who can play the victim of things that only happened to Thwir ancestors. And another side likes it when the other hest the upper hand at being the victim. Just awful all round. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review rosadobber a Waited for it to stream. Glad I waited. Walked out of the family room instead of a theater. The first 35 minutes were painfully bad. Watched a little more then gave up. Chopped, awful. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review Moko K This was so dumb. The plot and the characters were so unbelievable. Total waste of time. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
