Ashton Kutcher and Bernie Mac are a wonderful comedic team

"Many of the critics of this movie need to chill out. "Guess Who?" is meant to be a light-hearted look at what happens with interracial dating in the modern world;it is not meant to be taken so seriously. Also, the use of changing the situation around and making the woman African-American gives the audience a different point of view and lets them see it a totally different way. Remakes are not meant to be exactly how the first movie was...because if it was what exactly would the point be? "Guess Who?" is a refreshing look at interracial dating today by showing how some things have changed...and some things have never change. In my opinion this movie was great--I mean, it's no "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" but it isn't supposed to be. Take "Guess Who?" for what it is, and when watching it...try not to think too hard.

I have rented the movie "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" and thought it was boring. I think the "critics" of this movie is just jealous of Ashton....LOL

To take a work of pure genius (Guess Who's Coming To Dinner / Stanley Kramer 1967) and turn it into a Bernie mac, Ashton Kutcher roll reversal. I have nothing against the actors in this film... BUT! The original still stands strong as a cinematic masterpiece. Reviewing the troubled historic times past. Any comedic treatment of this classic work is nothing more than panhandling.

You can rent or buy the original for under $10. Sydney Portier was and is his generation. Don't be fooled, This series of remakes being spit out by the studios are simply because they already have the rights to the films and they will be the only ones making money. But the best question is what will they remake in 20 years from now.

Don't buy any of it!

'Guess Who' is a good reflection of the changes in society since the Sydney Portier version was made many decades ago. Ashton Kutcher is an underrated comedic actor, who despite his good looks, can still be quite goofy and amusing. The movie raises good points about reverse racism, people's continuing prejudices and the pressures society puts on 'mixed-race' couples. I think the director and writers found a happy medium that allowed issues to be raised while at the same time keeping the movie light-hearted, funny and entertaining. If you are looking for something meaningful and entertaining at the same time, with a touch of romance and some eye candy, this is the movie for you!

You're right euroman1970: Ashton can't act his way out of a paper bag. He should have never been able to pursue a career after "That 70's Show". Bernie tries to carry the weight of the movie on his shoulders, but it is too much. The movie has its funny moments, but I didn't feel any chemistry between Bernie and Ashton; almost as if they were walking through their lines. In the taxi scene Ashton looks right into the camera! What a sloppy actor! The plot is also in need of some serious repair. I wish I could have paused the movie in the theater so I could announce what was going to happen next.

Overall, I give it a 3/10.
