The Wash

watching "the wash" is kind of an odd experience. you laugh, you like the characters, but you wonder what the plot is really supposed to be. the jokes are there, so "the wash" is definitely a funny movie. in that respect, i enjoyed it. it seems that when d.j. pooh co-wrote the classic "friday" with ice cube, he definitely knew how to create hilarious situations and funny roles. but when he's on his own ("3 strikes" was his previous solo effort), something doesn't quite come off right. my main problem with "the wash" is the VERY ABRUPT ending. everyone will be like, "okay...it's over". they don't even bother to really wrap things up. it's just BAM...credits. the ending is weak, it could have been better. they set it up like the end of "next friday", where a couple different antagonists are brought into one situation at the same time. but the audience doesn't get much of a payoff. as chris rock might put it, "the wash" will take your clothes off, but will not f*** you.

Now I know many people might not agree with me but then again, I don't give a s**t. This movie had me laughing at nearly every scene, especially Slim Shady who played this mentally deranged prank caller. I laughed so hard at everything. Some parts left me in wonder but whatever, I couldn't help but laugh. I liked it and honestly I would watch it again and again.

I couldn't wait to rant as much as I could about this sorry excuse for a comedy. Some objetionable stuff like nonstop drug use and profane language made this movie worth not getting up and walking out of the theater, or taking the dvd out of my set and heaving it out window, but only those things saved it from getting a -2 out of 10. This entire script had absolutely no creativity or thought put into it, it felt like something you come up with at the top of your mind for a grade school project, like a novel at a preschool level of thought. If you listen closely to the dialogue, it's as simplistic as if the goal intent was to make this script 100% foolproof. In addition, there are way too many "run ons" in this movie, with small flaws that prevent the characters from sticking to the plot, as well as irrelevant little add-ons that have absolutely no point or place in the task at hand. I'm a big fan of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, but this movie was, I'm sorry to say, a low point in both of their careers.

Hi

I saw this on my local canal+ and boy was this a great movie or what !!

Dr.Dre and Snoop are just great love their roles, and the guest apperence by eminem he is very cool.

Last the music in the movie, its so bad ass. I love it !!

I hope that Dr.Dre and Snoop will make others like it...

Let's keep this simple, Dr.Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem and others are better singers than actors. That said it was funny watching them and I guess they had a lot of fun watching it themselves whilst smoking some weed. They're Hip Hop legends, swimming in money, and probably thought it would be fun to make a movie. I can't blame them but realisticly the movie oozes amateurism. But if you are a West Coast Hip Hop fan you will have some fun listening and watching them even if the story isn't really worth the detour. The comedy is just them talking like they record songs, that's always funny. The ratings are about right for this movie, I didn't regret watching it but I won't watch it again.
