Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Foxx Out did himself!
Review: This is a great movie for those people that love to sit back, not think to much and laugh a whole lot! This movie is vintage Jamie Foxx. His quick wit and "I'm a Player" vibe was super!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Don't waste your time... or your money
Review: This is got to be the stupidest film I've ever seen. I am surprized that Vivica Fox, who is a reputable actress, even consented to do this movie. The only good thing about it is the lengths these guys were going to to get condoms. Other than the safe sex message, this film is wack. They should have just called it BOOTY, 'cause that's what it is.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun flick, great quotes throughout
Review: This movie is certainly not Hollywood at its finest, but it's still a very funny movie with a ton of great, witty dialogue. Jamie Foxx delivers some of the funniest movie quotes of the '90's, and he plays his role to perfection. The scene at the chinese restaurant is one of my favorite comedy moments of the decade. And that's all I have to say about that.

Summary: Funny yet informative
Review: This movie is hilarious... not cause its "low brow" but because its about something very serious... not many movies deal with safe sex... especially comedies... i give the writers their props... i even learned a new thing or 2

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Extremely funny
Review: This movie is SOOOOOO funny! You absolutely must see this film. Jamie Foxx and Tommy Davidson (alumni from "In Living Color") have a series of hilarious mishaps on the way to scoring with their girlfriends. Don't miss it!

Summary: This would be average...
Review: This would be your average "brothas gotta git some" stereotypical comedy of errors (see "Two Can Play That Game") but Jamie Foxx, damn that man. He's one of the funniest comics alive today, and that's no exaggeration. I love the guy's shtick and the "Bunz" character, which is 100% Jamie Foxx, just makes this a fun romp. I've heard some complaints about the DVD release of this (which I don't own) so be forewarned, the DVD could be a load of rubbish. Don't buy the DVD! There, I've done my public service announcement. Now read the rest of my review.

Fortunately, I had the pleasure of watching this on VHS a few years back.

I honestly don't remember laughing so hard in my life. And 99% of the time I was laughing at Bunz. The other characters, Lysterine (Vivica A. Fox), Rashon (Tommy Davidson) and Nikki (Tamala Jones) are just window dressing. Foxx simply steals every scene he's in. With the exception of the angry lady scene and Bernie Mac's HILARIOUS cameo, oh, and of course, the blatantly stereotypical convenience store clerks, they are just there to act as foils for the impossibly funny Bunz. You know, instead of that big butt on the movie sleeve, they should have put Jamie Foxx's face on the cover. Anyway, minor spoilers ahead. These are my favorite scenes.

The Chinese restaurant! Bunz exchange with the waiter, Bunz speaking Chinese (he learned it from watching Kung Fu movies with...ah, I won't even spoil the joke!)

Bunz doing impressions spot on of William Shatner and Martin Luther King while er...you'll see!

Bottom line: Jamie Foxx is a genius. Don't mind the critics who pass this off as sophomoric. Well, of course it is! But like the editorial review says, it's funny. This will most likely become a cult classic now that Foxx's career is starting to really take off.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Can I get a what what?
Review: Trippin' out to the max! Def, fly, phat, whacked out comedy genius of Jamie Foxx is shown in the epic tour-de-force in the black American cinema genre. There is no nudity, however, the adult language is appropriate for viewers over 16.
