Marion Barry is a lot of things—a former mayor, a current Ward 8 councilmember, an inspiration for some and an embarrassment for others. He’s also something of a movie critic, and over the weekend he gave Snow White and the Huntsman his seal of approval:
Guys, I was coerced n2 seeing Snow White. Gotta confess, it was an action-packed fairytale! Timeless battle b/w good v evil.Hint:good wins;)

Now I just realized everybody else is watching nba playoffs and I’m watching snow white, and liking it. Something’s wrong with this picture.

Last week he also shared his thoughts on HBO’s critically acclaimed The Wire. We don’t always agree with Barry, and this is just one thing we’ll have to differ on—we didn’t think the movie was all that good.
