Comment on More than race drives 'Black or White'

[...] working within these self-imposed limits, writer-director Mike Binder does some interesting things and casts the movie well. Costner also manages to convey varying degrees of drunkenness for different scenes, with such clarity that I can't begin to figure how he did it. At one point, Costner is driving down the road, in a contemplative mood, and the sound track is playing Billy Joel's "Don't Ask Me Why." Speaking of unwelcome resurrections, Jennifer Ehle keeps showing up in visions as the deceased wife, smiling in that peaceful, loving, so-happy-to-be-dead way that we all know from bad movies. [...] it's hard not to like a picture that casts comedian Bill Burr as Costner's law partner, lets him act in dramatic scenes and yet every so often throws him a funny line.
