Avis à la une
When I saw this movie 3 years ago I was surprised at how awful it really was. I mean why the hell would you make this movie into a musical when none of the actors in it can sing? I thought this movie would be about Lisa Kudrow trying to act black, which would have been funny since she is the whitest girl I have ever seen, but the director decided not to go that route, like the title entails, and decided to make it into a romance musical which had a total of ONE funny moment. When Wayne's character starts singing "I wanna love you IN THE BUTT, IN THE BUTT, IN THE BUTT!!!" and all the backup singers had red targets painted on their rear ends. Thats about the only funny part of the movie, and you only laugh for a few seconds. Anyone who rated this movie a 10 either is a HUGE Waynes brother fan, or they love the smooth, sensual voice of Lisa Kudrow when she sings (FUBAR!)
First of all I thought that this movie was hilarious. I thought that the whole gansta rap thing was very funny. But having the gansta rap mixed with rich Jewish women was even funnier. I especially liked the power in her purse song lisa kudrow did. There were sorta corny jokes that were slipped in there that were hilarious like the ones her friends would add in. Such as when her friends would ask her if she has eaten anything and the jokes about heroin. The end was very funny because Marci becomes Marci X, her friends become hoes, Boyz R Us are out of the closet, Marci and Dr. S get together, etc. Overall I thought it was a great movie. The actors and actresses were great too.
...for one simple reason-they aren't responsible for the worst movie ever made anymore. Weak set-ups fizzle into non-humor and bland plot scenarios roll downhill slowly toward the expected conclusions. It's sort of like staring at traffic for 90 minutes-you tune out the cars and the noise and start thinking about being anywhere else.
I was very disappointed with this movie. I really had high expectations. The story had definite potential but maybe it would have done better with different actors. Damon Wayans ( while extremely funny in movies such as Major Payne and as the father on the TV show "My Wife & Kids") was not at all convincing as the hard core rapper he was supposed to be portraying. Nor was Lisa Kudrows' performance as a sheltered socialite very funny at all. There were a few scenes that were kind of humorous but that's about it. The story is flat and predictable, the characters are under-developed. Don't waste your money on this one. Not really worth the rental fee. Sorry.
I think that, at some point, there was a good script behind this film. In the process of producing it, though, things went wrong. Hideously wrong.
There are some extremely biting jokes in this film, and that is the best I can say about it.
If, indeed, the film did start out with a good script, then shame on the filmmakers for ruining it.
If this film started out nearly as bad as it ended up being, then the actors must have been desperate; Wayans and Krakowski, for publicity, Baranski, for money, and Kudrow, for....
You really have to wonder why Lisa Kudrow was in this film. She doesn't need the money, and she doesn't need the fame. What she needs is to break into the movies (something certain "Friends" stars can't seem to manage), and you can see from a mile away that this is not going to help her do that.
Don't pay to watch this. Don't even spend your time on it.
