I brought a bootleg of this, but never watched it. I heard it was bad, anyway. Like that piece of *beep* College Road Trip.

When was the last time we saw a funny Mike Epps comedy? Never. This guy needs to take a cue from Osama and hide in a cave.

They should change that quote to "Martin Lawrence has never been funny".
Also, all of those quotes are from Fox-TV.... Bribery, anyone?

I don't care more most of the blackomodies out there. The only movie I liked with him in it was 'Life' with Eddie Murphy, but it was more of a comedy/drama... sort of. I shall be passing on this.

It's sad to see Martin pretty much peddling the same character he's portrayed in every film since the dawn of his TV show waaaay back in '92. It's a shame, really, watching a capable actor not evolve beyond his early career. Even comedians like Carrey and Sandler have tackled and (mostly) succeeded at dramatic roles ( Eternal Sunshine and Punch Drunk-Love are perfect examples). Life is probably the closest Lawrence has come to serious drama, but a sappy ending tacked onto an overtly comedic film isn't really the same thing, sorry.
Boy, Marty-Mar keeps right on cranking out the mediocre "urban" comedies. Might still have to rent it just to see Nicole Ari Parker's fine ass. Boris Kodjoe is a lucky man.....

I thought this one was hilarious, all the supporting characters were funny, but then it was kinda stupid as well. I enjoyed it.
Saw it in theaters. I'll pass.
This movie should've been combined with College Road Trip. They could've named it "Big Ol' Pile of C**p".
Martin Lawrence = no go.
