One of the Greatest Comedies of All-Time

Don’t believe the haters on this board people, this movie is awesome and filled with some of the best physical comedy ever put to screen. I gave this movie a solid 10 and simply cannot believe that it does not hold a higher rating as it should be well up there in the top 250.

Honestly, I was a little nervous upon reading some negative reviews in this press but after seeing this film I was relieved to see that it a a great return to form for Cuba Gooding Jr. I think he should win another Oscar for his role here as he finds a delicate balance between heartfelt drama and hilarious slapstick.

Anyway the kids in this film are awesome and had me howling with non-stop laughter, it may have had something to do with all the peyote I was drinking but either way this film is comedy gold and ranks up there with classics such as norbit and kings ransom.

10 out of a solid 10

You were good until you brought up norbit

You know, I always thought dogs laid eggs. And I learned something today.

Thats a joke right? Ur like.. high or drunk or something right?

[–] xebra777 17 years ago

No, it's not a joke, i just feel that half the people who critisize this film havent even seen it... I mean if you havent seen it then you should watch it and write a good review because the film is really funny.

You want good comedy, including physical, watch scrubs.

Well I for one believe at least half the people that write reviews here or post comments should not be watching television because apparently they have issues. Yes scrubs is funny lol As for the review I saw when I viewed rthe site what a loser, I am talking about you PoisonKeyblade, Good God if you did not like the first one why the hell did you waste your time with the second. Most movies sequels are not as good as the prequel. Haven't you ever noticed that? Maybe you should change your name to PoisonBraincells

Thank you for the review Cuba Gooding Jr., but this movie still sucks.

[–] JohnParadiso 17 years ago

You hit the nail on the head. We know what you're up to Cuba (you 'drink' peyote?).

[–] MovieFan0107290 17 years ago

I have this movie, and though it is rated a bit lower than I thought, I do believe it belongs on the bottom 100. The Oscars, and for that matter, the top 250 belong to movies that are good.

Lol thats a joke, right?

[–] TrevEk08-1 17 years ago

wait.. you're serious?

[–] krityx 17 years ago

LOL dude, i can't believe it. honestly i haven't watched this yet (yet is unappropiate here as i am never planning to watch this).

this is one of those movies about a bunch of black people fooling around in a "comedy". of course it is a comedy i suppose but you won't be laughing because of the jokes but because of their stupidity and to think that the director and writer or whatever actually thought this was gonna be a good movie. lol

Wow now I want to like this movie to be on the opposite side of your racist BS krityx. Sadly I could not finish this horrible film. I hope most people who hate this movie are not motivated by race.

[–] netgrazer 17 years ago

I don't think it's a racism thing at all, at first it's more the other way around.
You see a whole bunch of crap comedies, and after a while you recognize a pattern: they're predominantly "black" movies. To deny that relationship might be very PC but it's also naive.

I'm not racist. I don't hate black people but as someone previously stated ... there is that pattern. I'm sorry if I offended you or anyone else but I think my statement wasn't racist.

[–] davidgoesboating 16 years ago

The logical conclusion is that Hollywood aims these movies at black people, therefore they think black people are stupid. I would suggest the only true racism here comes from Hollywood.

[–] xebra777 14 years ago

I think it's a little sad that this thread has become flooded with racial comments, basically critisizing this film for what may be seen as black comedy/humor. I just think that if a films funny then we should give it the credit it's due.

[–] bigfanofimdb 17 years ago

OK, I personally HATE it but if somebody likes a certain movie that is very unpopular, why grudge them? It's a PERSONAL opinion you can't make someone change their own one. I still hate it but.

The OP was obviously kidding. The sad part of this whole thing is that the majority of you actually thought he liked the movie. Have you no sense of humor?

[–] Pigs_rock_12 17 years ago

There will always be those strange people who think this movie is great.... your one of them!
