And when something doesn't go his way, all of a sudden his nice guy act stops. Usually a movie about someone like this spends all its time making them look like a creepy monster, and while this one did as well, it's lighter side made him seem a likable and fun guy to be around at the exact same time... you know, unless you're black. Can't say that I loved the movie, but it was definitely a fun watch.

P.S. Thank god for anime subs. If nothing else, they've trained me to be able to watch subtitled movies and not look like a dumb American.
