Apallingly bad. Robert Townsend's attempt at satirizing black culture is far off the mark.
June 05, 2002
Bad, amateur, poor and silly.
January 01, 2000
A horribly failed satire that should be avoided by all.
April 09, 2005
The story offers nothing original.
January 01, 2000
It's good for a half-hour of humor before the fun starts to dissolve.
July 21, 2009
A string of hugely unfunny shenanigans ensue.
January 01, 2000
Paying movie-goers deserve more, especially from someone who has previously shown signs of genuine comic aptitude.

Formulaic and distastefully fake, Townsend's modern fairy tale unsuccessfuly tries to combine the premise of Pretty Woman with the formats of the fish-out-of-water and culture-collision.
June 24, 2003
Not a great example of Halle Berry's talent.

You can see how the black, modern-day Pygmalion-type story could work, just, but not with this heap of cabbage leaves for a script, and not with such desperately goofy acting from Berry and Desselle.
January 01, 2000
They both do good work, but it's Desselle who steals the film and grabs the major laughs.
July 21, 2009
t's a celebration of bonds that are thicker than blood and demonstrates above all that fame-and-fortune fantasies can blur divisions of race and class as persuasively as they can exaggerate them.
