Stranger things have happened.... March 6, 2010 Explorer What can I say, but "stranger" or the more appropriate word for this film would be "crazier" things have happened and yes it is possible that a "wanna be" skinhead and a black woman to fall in love...
Why it is possible is because Ned in his heart is not a skin head racist but a scared person who just wants to belong...
He's been displaced most of his life and despite the fact that the girl he falls for goes against everything he supposedly believes in she does something he's been wanting his whole life....acceptance for who is on the inside and out.
Vice versa for her as well....
Anyway, it is a cute little movie and if one keeps in mind that it is just a movie, you will enjoy it.
Highly recommend!
Neo Ned February 21, 2010 Arnita D. Brown (USA) Like most kids, Ned idolized his father and dreamed of following in his footsteps. Unfortunately, his father was a two-bit crook who spent most of his life in jail. Without a family of his own, Ned falls in with the Aryan Brotherhood. Soon after, Ned is placed in a mental hospital where he is mesmerized by a young black girl who believes Adolf Hitler was reincarnated in her. What follows is a gritty character study and poignant love story of two people brought together by a seemingly impossible connection. As a result of that connection, they both find that there is more to a person than what is on the surface. This movie is a little shocking, it's funny and its sad with a bittersweet ending all rolled in one. The acting is awesome. Highly recommend, you wont be disappointed.
A fantastic film (Should have been in theatres) August 9, 2009 Kristina N. Diggs 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This movie was fantastic! It approaches a relatively touchy subject, racism, and does so with a shiningly splendid outlook. Neo Ned is a movie that without a doubt should have seen a worldwide release. A fantastic story that if, like me, you believe in love transcending all barriers and beliefs, you really should see.
You WILL be moved by this movie, despite the unrealistic plot! April 30, 2009 Deanna Silva (Springfield, MA) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Although I agree that the circumstances in this movie are on the unrealistic side, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I actually had NO clue what it was about before I saw it so as the plot unfolded, I was saying to myself, What the Hell?? But Renner (DAHMER) did an AMAZING job on this movie and hit the nail on the head with his portrayal of DYSFUNCTION! I don't think Gabrielle Union was the best choice for the part of Rachel, but I bought the story anyway. Very different, you have probably never seen anything like this! It takes dysfunction to a whoooooole different level, but brings it close to home. We ALL know a NED and a Rachel!! You will fall in love with the characters' 'scars'.
Great Movie March 2, 2009 S. Corbin (Omaha NE United States) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. I wish it was available on Blu-Ray. Great Movie with great acting, I found it on Starz by accident.
Movies don't have to be realistic to be great. Ever heard of the Wizard of Oz, Independence Day, Star Wars. If you want realism, watch the news.
