    Meet the Parents with an extra war of the races twist. It mostly relies on those comedic moments of pure painful embarrassment which are all handled very well and taken to the extreme. Kutcher being coaxed into telling black jokes to his future in laws is a prime example of uppin...( read more)g the ante with each minute waiting for the inevitable downfall. The film works as it laughs with each race as opposed to at them, well sometimes at them, but in a sweet kind of way not likely to offend. Other than that though it is far too predictable to be any purposeful comment on society. Still it's true enough and well acted for the required chuckles, groans, and aaaawwwwww's.

    Romcom about an interracial relationship between Ashton Kutcher and Zoë Sandaņa, which causes tension when he meets her father Bernie Mac. Predictable but loveable. Ashton is hot!

    sadly this movie was just alright for me. I think Ashton did better on his series then in the movies though he ain't bad to look at but so far I have yet to catch a movie I think he fits into besides comedy.

  • September 14, 2009
    A roll reversal comedic remake of "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner". This film is not one of my favorites, Bernie Mac is hilarious in almost everything he is in but even he can't help out Ashton Kutcher who is just plain awful. The rating that I gave this movie was actually a genero...( read more)us one.

    Bernie Mac is very funny in this.

    Disappointing re-vamped story from Guess Who's Coming To Dinner. Bernie Mac is funny, but he's no Spencer Tracy.
  • September 5, 2009
    A very enjoyable comedy. The girl ruins a bit the the enjoyment in some parts, but it's forgivable because ashton and bernie do a great job.

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

The timing of nearly every gag is just half a beat off, and that half-beat is a killer. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Guess what? It's almost bearable. full review

March 25, 2005
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Though a light comedy, director Kevin Rodney Sullivan keeps the acting values authentic and consistent. full review

March 25, 2005
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Guess Who works efficiently on its chosen level. full review

March 24, 2005
Claudia Puig, USA Today

This feeble comedy ranks about an 11 on the yawn-o-meter. full review

March 24, 2005
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

This loose, pointless remake of Guess Who's Coming to Dinner at least suggests that American racial attitudes have relaxed since 1967. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

It's been a long time since the words 'Ashton Kutcher' and 'hilarious' have appeared in the same sentence, but they'll have to get reacquainted. Kutcher and costar Bernie Mac make a terrific comic team. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine

Forgoes its predecessor's moralizing in favor of Meet the Parents-style conflict. full review
