Overhyped and Overrated piece of 2002 Celebrity Worship
You know, this film insults the intelligence of the public. Why would a young beautiful woman go for an old miserable man? She has just lost her husband, and her fat child will soon die in the film as well.
Possibility #1: Race and socioeconomic status - I know, maybe it was because Halle Berry's character decided she was "movin' on up" and needed to get an established old white male from the community. That might be a deleted scene from the film.
Possibility #2: She is a highly overexposed sexy actor in a 2002 film, and the nation wants to see her naked with another famous hollywood actor. Now most people will lie that healing racial tensions and overcoming prejudice are key issues in the story. I beg to differ with this idea of "healing".
Taking what another reviewer said, if this were a black racist cop with a white female woman this film would have flopped...unless... you find a famous black actor and white woman. Let's say that Samuel L. Jackson is the black racist cop and Jessica Simpson is the widow. Do you think the audience would believe he truly regrets his racist ideologies? Not So. Most would understand he just wants sex from a beautiful and much younger woman. That is what this film is: a Hollywood sex show. If this film were all that great, you could change the cast members to be any person you would like and it wouldn't flaw the film. The problem is, without Billy Bob Thorton and Halle Berry, the film is about a racist white cop who gets easy sexy from a dumb black mindless widow who recovers from the loss of her husband (and her son) easily. Rate this whatever you want, but I see it as nothing more than a waste of time. Focus on something that affects your life, such as politics. Unless of course you let the film "touch" you in some sort of way, and if that is the case you are already lost.

For Non-racist Minds!
This wonderful film transcends racism and beautifully illustrates how love and passion can overcome even the worst of circumstances. Only the most superfluous thinking could reduce this film to a "cop shoot cop" analogy. The challenge of this contoversial movie is for the viewer to get beyond personal prejudices that involve race and sex, but sadly, the belief systems of many Americans will not allow them to view this exquisite film as being inspirational - which it is. This film is for mature adults only.
