Booty Call

This is one of the most mindlessly hilarious movies ever made. Definitely Jamie Foxx's best. Although the middle is kind of slow (with the exception of the convenience store - Are we going to do this or what Judge?) the movie as a whole has some of the best lines ever for a beer-fest, watch-it-with-the-guys Saturday afternoon movie. See the movie for the writing, stay for the dance in the nightclub where Tommy Davidson busts out the best dance moves on reel until Rush Hour :) If you're even remotely a fan of outrageous trash talking and completely random lines ("Was ya gonna wait till I turned into a butterfly?" and "You need a cigarette to bring you down?" LOL!) then this movie is a must see. Otherwise stay away as this is going to offend and bore you.

10/10 for some, and a 3/10 for others. Watch at your discretion!

I picked this movie out of some obscure video store in Seoul, and what I saw afterwards is a movie that changed my life.

Jamie Foxx is a comic genius with his jokes ("you wait outside, and a f---in' sea donkey goes into your car") and impressions of famous black men. I rented the movie several times before finally buying it.

The scenes at the Chinese restaurant have to rank up there with the all-time greatest in comedy ("no fighting in restaurant -- cost you extra to fight in restaurant").

The movie did start to slow after Rushon gets shot in the leg and goes to the hospital. But before that, gosh, it had to be the funniest movie I've seen in years! I give it 8 out of 10.

After watching this movie, it was hard to move because my sides hurt so much from laughing. The hilarious standout performances of Vivica Fox, Tamala Jones, Tommy Davidson, and Jamie Foxx make this movie an entertaining film for anyone -- black or white, male or female. The knockout, yet brief, performance of Gedde Wantanabe (Long Duc Dong of Sixteen Candles) is enough to make you rewind the dinner scene again and again and again.

This movie is not as highly regarded as it should be. It should be up in the ranks of "Casablanca", "Gone with the Wind", and "How to be a Player starring Bill Bellamy". This movie has some of the greatest one liners that have even been thought up. Jamie Foxx gives a performance that is equal to that of Marlon Brando in "Godfather". This one gets and A-OK from me, the Communist Critic.

Come on, when you're planning on seeing a movie entitled "Booty Call" you're obviously not anticipating a Disney comedy. This film delivers just as much raunch as its title suggests. The comedy is sometimes overdone and sometimes plagued by lame sitcom material, but I still got tons of laughs. Jamie Foxx is a terrific comic actor, and he delivers many funny--and memorable--one-liners. Even when the story runs flat, he livens it up with his quirky sense of humor. There's also a good cameo by multi-talented comedian Bernie Mac, who has some of the funniest cameo roles in movie history. I enjoyed the two Middle Eastern guys who worked at the convenience store. Sure, they were stereotyped caricatures of what a foreigner at a corner store or 7 Eleven would act like, but they were still extremely funny. This film has a chock full of outrageous, yet original moments. The argument in the Chinese restaurant is a classic! If you're looking for good, clean fun--"Booty Call" is NOT the movie to see! But if you're looking for big laughs, no matter how raunchy and profane, you will have a blast! Don't leave this call on hold!

My score: 7 (out of 10)
