Beverly Hood

Admittedly, this is definitely not going to be anyone's favorite movie of all time, but it isn't the worst movie ever made like some people mentioned in these reviews. Some people just totally lose it when they unknowingly watch a low-budget movie, expecting an all-around stellar movie performance. That is what Hollywood has turned so many people into these days. If you appreciate the efforts people make with the best budget they can get, and you can see through movie budgeting, this movie will be manageable to watch. I must admit though, I gave it a 4 out of 10 for a reason...because they could have spent more time working with the screen writing; improving on the storyline and comedy a bit. If you have the right talent, you can make a funny movie with a home video camera and a basement. I'm not saying this movie was "good" necessarily, I'm just saying that there are plenty of worse movies out there with the same budget I imagine this movie having. This is a good middle-of-the-night movie too. When you are real tired or a little 'partied-out', this movie should seem rather funny. Just see past the low budget part of the movie and watch it for what the filmmakers intended for the movie to become...a 4 out of 10 movie!

I have never seen a worse movie in my entire life. DO NOT SEE THIS! My mom picked it out so I had no choice in it. If I did, I probably would have killed myself. Anyone who sees this is wasting their time and money. PLEASE DO NOT SEE THIS! I'm telling you again just so you don't. If you do see this, do not blame me.

You can tell that this movie is low budget, but the premise is relatively believable and has a nice twist at the end. At times, it seems like a showcase of the music on the soundtrack, but those scenes aren't that long. There are a few very funny scenes (almost always the ones with Lavell Crawford or Buddy Lewis involved) but also some bad parts that seem like the actors were improvising poorly or just talking. All in all, if this movie is on cable for free or you see it for $1 on DVD in the store, it's worth picking up just to see the old Destiny's Child all together. If it's going to cost you more than $1 to watch it, I'd say save your money. The way that the cover art looks like something that's been photoshopped is a good indication of the quality of the film.

And if you somehow don't pick up on it, this is supposed to be a black parody take on The Beverly Hillbillies. Most of the Hillbillies characters have a double in this movie (Jed = Red, Ellie May = Pammie, Granny = Papa, Mr. Drysdale and his wife = the uppity neighbors, Jethro = Nathan etc)

This movie is, without any doubt, the worst movie I have ever seen. Everything on this movie is just plain bad. And with everything I really mean everything. I got depressed by looking at this bunch of amateurs. In some scenes, you can see the mic, or the shadows of the crew. That can happen, it happens in a lot of movies, and you probably won't even notice, but in this movie it's way harder NOT to notice, cause it's in the center of the screen! So please, don't waste any time or money on this movie like I did. It's just not worth it.

The people who made this "movie" should be behind bars, in order to protect society from their awful products!

Based very loosely on the TV series The Beverly Hillbillies (1962 -1971) this movie looked like it might be going somewhere but wentdownhill within the first 10 minutes. Basically a poor hillbilly family win the lottery and move to Beverly Hills. The plot was very poor as was the ham fisted acting. It seemed like a cheap vehicle to showcase the lack of talent of Lavell Crawford and Buddy Lewis. At times it was like a mish mash of comedy sketches. I was fortunate that I only rented this movie, if I'd bought it I would have more extremely disappointed. As it stands this was an hour and a half of my life I'll never get back.
