Meet the Blacks

"Rich people don't purge." Carl Black (Epps) has finally found a way out of Chicago and his dangerous neighborhood. He and him family movie into a huge mansion in a gated community in Beverly Hills. They are just settling in when the thing they most feared arrives. The Purge exists in the richest city in the country, and they are the only black family around. Things can only go bad. This is a strange movie. This is not really a spoof in the usual sense. This is really more of a remake of The Purge movie done as a comedy instead of a horror. Unlike the Scary Movie series it doesn't take from all other movies. There are some funny parts in this but it did seem to drag a little. The two biggest problems with this movie however were the over used cliché racist jokes. We get it, your black so even when crime is illegal you will get caught...very funny. The biggest problem with the movie though is that the actors didn't look like the wanted to be in this. That really hurt the comedy due to the fact that you almost felt sorry for them. Overall, Some people will enjoy this but as for me the movie was only funny in some parts, and only because I saw the original Purge. I give this a C.

Meet The Blacks is a very funny comedy! I was a little pessimistic at first, I was afraid it would be too stereotypical but it had me in tears from beginning to end. It's a great parody of the movie The Purge (which I also loved by the way). The story: Carl Black moves his family to Beverly Hills thinking there's no annual purge there (a night where anybody can get away with murder); Shout out to Mike Epps, Lil Duval and Bresh Webb who are shining in this film! I did not really know Lil Duval but his role is hilarious! A lot of comedy legends are also appearing: Charlie Murphy, Paul Mooney...even Snoop Dogg is in it! Great job for a low-budget and independent film! I recommend anyone who wants a good laugh to go see it!

Don't take it too seriously...it's just a bit of fun!

Non-stop nonsense with the same budget as one week's grocery shopping!

Mike Epps' one-liners are hilarious though!

The trailer for the upcoming sequel looks promising.

Have you ever seen a movie that represents reality poorly? Ah, well. It is a comedy, right?

I like Mike Epps, but this film might as well have been a cartoon. There were a few short laughs; The biggest laugh by far was Mike Tyson's brief role. He had me rolling. The rest of the comedy was based on "stuck in the 1930's" style racist humor.

White people are represented as universally villainous and overtly racist; Which is supposed to be a joke, but the lines just seem so unnatural that there is no way it could sound authentic. Its like someone went through the film in post production and tried to ad-lib some racist white people from books written a century ago.

I was mostly disappointed in the comedy, bored by the action, and even a great scene with Charlie Murphy couldn't raise the bar on this film. The kids were annoying, the family was deranged, and Mike Epps himself seems too old for the sh*t-head gangsta roles he always seems to get. Casually dropping the N-bomb while looking disinterested and lanky was his main appeal in most films and I think the amusement of that character has run it's course.

Mike, you can play roles where the character has an IQ over 70, I promise! Err...I assume you can.

Mike epps... with this movie he has proved proved he officially needs acting and comedy lessons. His acting is atrocious his ability to execute or tell jokes is practically none existent. Th "movie" itself is just a waste of time at best , its boring , its NOT funny at all terrible writing , bad casting , some of the worst acting and the attempts of comedy relief are painfully bad! Its one of the worst movies I've watched all year hands down and honestly its probably one of the worst films I've ever watched...... I wish i could say something good about this i really do , But calling this a comedy is a reach let alone a movie , its sad that anyone would let themselves be part of something they have to know is just a waste of every ones time and trash from the beginning. Money means more then quality , standards , being good at what you do and or love , integrity and especially more then helping others or making other happy... quite sad from any perspective or position in life. i'm only in my 20s and i realize the importance of those qualities and how that if even 1 in 5 people practiced that in there own life and simply learned to be passionate , do the best you can in every situation , have integrity, care for others , and hold ourselves to a higher standard. With that little effort this world would be as amazing as it is beautiful an vast! Imagine...

Thats My Review - Take Care Everyone & God Bless ,I Hope We ALL Find Happiness in not only our personal lives but as a whole!Thats a Dream we can all embrace.
