Highly Overrated But Still Good

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

I didn't catch the beginning, but what I saw was funny. From the point of Andy Anderson entering Jay Mohr's Grandma's house. Andy got it thru Jay's head to grow a set of ca-hone's (Sorry my spelling probably isn't correct) and Jay actually growing them.It is a silly slapstick comedy. It had me laughing. It did it's job.Andy's character had the same qualities as the rest of his characters, like the thief from Barbershop, or the friend in Kangaroo Jack.You should't watch this movie expecting to be moved to anything but laughter.Even Charlie Murphys' character was funny.

I was previewing the DVD last night and had to turn it off after 15 minutes. The character introductions were barely less subtle than if they had come out and said "Hi, I'm Anthony Anderson, but today I'm playing Malcolm King, a rich man that people hate." There was not an ounce of subtlety. It was disgustingly awful.I'm sure that there are people out there that like Anthony Anderson - people who thought that the time spent on his character in Barbershop DIDN'T distract from the main story and damage the otherwise-entertaining film. I'm sure that there are people who don't find his high-pitched voice grating on the ears. I'm sure there are people who don't want to vomit at the site of him in a film. They MAY find this film entertaining. Anybody with an ounce of taste, however, will be turned off immediately.Then again, people with taste would see him on the poster or DVD box and wouldn't watch it anyway. I did it because it's my job to try and watch this crap. You don't have that excuse. Save yourself.

Okay, I am obviously alone here.I thought this movie was funny but too short.Peaches rocked.The gold-digger wife was (is) hot.Loretta Devine as the secretary...flawless.The acting-VP with the college degrees...or...no degrees, going berserk...could it be any funnier?The sandwich getting body slammed on the roadside? funny shtick.And the fifty-cent music...perfect!I thought this movie had a lot to offer. It was just too short. The credits were rolling but I was wanting more.Remember, it is not true to life. It seems that "black" films are required to either represent true life or contain a "do-good message" for the youth.I'd prefer to go to a movie to laugh and be entertained. I thought this film was entertaining.King's Ransom was funny but too short.I've seen it twice just to make sure.

I saw this at a sneak peek the day before it came out and laughed a lot! This movie is hilarious. I will be buying it on DVD when it comes out. It's nice to go to a movie and just be able to laugh out loud and this is definitely that type of film.I love Anthony Anderson and I am glad he was recently cleared of all charges in that Memphis trailer fiasco which I didn't believe in the first place. All in all this was a very cute movie and my boyfriend and I found ourselves reminding each other of different funny parts and laughing about them after the movie.Enjoy the film!
