But this film was a long time ago. I was just seeing if anyone had thoughts on it.

I see.
First of, I am a born and bread Belgian, but seeing you uncertain about that somehow feels like a compliment. :)
I am somewhat familiar with the whole "black people talking in movie theaters"-thing (The Scary Movie-franchise centered one of it's kills around that, if my memory serves me right.). I don't remember the break dancing.
The gang bits... Well, the stripe did make the leader look like he was in a biker gang. So, yeah... Personally, I would not consider it in that way. It certainly is not Skids and Mudflap.
Dunno if that helps.
