Critic Reviews
-
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News
A comedy that successfully plays with stereotypes, both racial and personal.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
You have somebody as smart as Steve Martin, and as smart and appealing as Queen Latifah in a movie like this. To have such an awful, offensive story is a real disappointment.
-
Robert Denerstein, Denver Rocky Mountain News
A comedy constructed from tapped-out ideas.
-
Jane Dark, Village Voice
A Film in Which Steve Martin Will Appear in Full Hip-Hop Drag With Appropriate Slang for Not Less Than Six Minutes.
-
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine
The material is thin and pandering and almost criminally negligent in bypassing opportunities for humor.
