Urban music and fashion are two things that Ezra Cohen (Jonah Hill) and Amira Mohammed (Lauren London), two strangers, both enjoy. They meet due to a ridesharing mix-up in Los Angeles, where they unintentionally fall in love and start a relationship in which they both finally feel noticed. Before their families eventually meet, everything seems well. Julia Louis-Dreyfus and David Duchovny, Ezra's progressive yet offensively stupid parents, always come off a touch too strongly. Additionally, Amira's parents (Eddie Murphy and Nia Long) raise the bar for intensity significantly. What is the cause of their unruly and immature actions? The two seem unable to overcome the cultural divides between the families.


You People's inconsistent reception is mostly due to the humour that permeates the entire movie. In the end, it's about what happens when interracial dating crosses paths with so-called "woke culture." That is not to imply that the discussions in Barris' movie have never taken place. However, the script takes them too far, making them feel foolish and uninformed about racial relations. The tone of the humour is expressed, for instance, in Ezra's mother's declaration that "we are a family of colour now." It has both an edge and a cringe.


The picture fails to regain its footing in terms of quality in the 30 minutes leading up to the ending. The majority of the film is spent creating conflict amongst the protagonists over their comprehension of other viewpoints and civilizations. However, the script loses its originality and falls back on tried-and-true resolution techniques as it moves on to mending the damaged relationships after weeks of mayhem. Since these groups of individuals eventually set aside their differences to improve their conditions, it isn't fully credible, to be honest. Instead, the sudden conclusion occurs as it tries to find the joyful ending it so desperately wants.


Overall, Barris and Hill's writing is effective—but only to a point. The first two acts offer amusing (and worthwhile) comments on interethnic dating and how various cultures might require some time to adapt to a change in family relations. The movie loses momentum at the pivotal scene, leading to a safe and conventional denouement that feels too hasty. You people is an entertaining movie to watch when you're bored because of the star-studded cast's commitment to the silliness of the screenplay and Hill and London's endearing and engaging performances. However, since audiences have seen it all before, not everyone will like this mixed bag of chuckles and discomforts.
