While this has the reputation of being a film with a mostly black cast this is not the case. The cast contains a mixture of black, Asian and white actors. It stars All Saints' Melanie Blatt (who is Jewish) and she is very good in this (her dog is hilarious!). It also features John Thomson from the Fast Show (who has a funny cameo) and Trevor Peacock from the Vicar of Dibley. Gary Kemp is brilliant as a dog loving drug dealer and probably has the best lines in the film. There are a number of laugh out aloud moments in this picture and one shouldn't get hooked up on racial issues. It's just a pleasant, witty, amusing and non-offensive comedy and should be viewed as such.
