Ratings and reviews

I've had to put it on pause to come here and warn you. I'm just on the part where the girls start to fight. This film has some of the worst acting I've ever seen, it's so not funny, It is utter rubbish. This is not a movie for people who KNOW and LOVE Afro American culture or anyone and doesn't do the culture justice at all. People that like Afro American humour have a highly developed sharp sense of humour, this film is void of it! It's killing me! At one point I felt myself nodding off! Who wrote that script? A computer program? So fake! What is very sad indeed about this movie is, the best parts of 'Afro American' culture has been surgically removed from the script. Why? Why??...Then suddenly there are loads of stupid negative stereotypes thrown in like script writer couldn't control his Tourettes syndrome. Why make an Afro American movie then remove, hide and bleach the best things about the culture AND THEN sabotage it with the worst stereotypes! Make sense? Afro Americans have a compellingly attractive culture which was pitifully reconstructed beyond recognition in this movie. The only good thing was Monica Calhoun was real and brilliant and Taye was excellent too

You will be crying one minute and laughing seconds later. Loved it

This would have been a great film if it wasn't for the use of the "f".
