My boyfriend rented this for me while I’m recovering from surgery. I was waiting until I was truly, truly bored before watching this. Which was this morning.
I thought it was frikkin’ hilarious! Oh my god! Screw the little piddly kidnapping plot; I wanted more black man dressed as white women antics. Lord help me.
Maybe it’s the Demerol. I can only hope…
My first thought was that you might want to look for a new boyfriend, based off of his choice of movie.
Now, however, you all deserve each other. 
When he gave me the movies, I said “White Chicks? You rented White Chicks? That looks sooo stupid” He’s a typical guy: “I don’t know what kind of movies you like!”, when in fact he does, and so far has been doing a good job of getting some decent ones. I didn’t even ask him to do this for me, he’s just taken it upon himself to make sure I have stuff to do while I’m incapacitated. What a sweetie.
When I saw the trailer for this movie, I thought “oh god in heaven. Do they even think people will buy these black guys dressed as white women? They look faker than fake!” But I laughed my ass off.
I have no excuse. Yes I do. It’s the Demerol. Gotta be.
You can test this theory. Rent Battlefield Earth. If you think this is a good movie, it’s definitely the Demerol talking.
Or watch some Bevis and Butthead. If you laugh at that, you *must * be stoned.
It sounds like he knows you better than you do yourself. It’s a sign.
Wow, now there’s the question of the century: “Would you rather watch White Chicks” or “Battlefield Earth”? It’s like asking “hanging” or “firing squad”…
Too bad lissener got banned – he’d explain that both of these are works of unrecognized genius.
There’s also Master of Disguise. It’s very un-funny for a comedy but its good if you keep in mind that it was intended as a tribute to the Clouseau’s disguises in the Pink Panther movies.
Why? So far as I know, Paul Verhoeven didn’t direct either of them.
It’s a parody of a farce about bad acting! :dubious:
Kicking someone who isn’t here. Classy.
Back to the OP.
Anybody who is laid up recovering should watch Rear Window.
It was a joke. Lighten up. (BTW, you never showed up to pick a movie in the musicals group – if you’d like to get back in on that, post over there.)
How is it that every time a Wayans Brothers movie comes out, it makes eleventy-billion dollars?
Somebody explain it.
Where is Crunchy Frog? I could use a bullet review of this one.
When my wife gives me that “I don’t think I’d like that film” look, I make her watch it.
If she says she doesn’t like it, then I call her an idiot.
The relationship works.
Take comfort in the fact that Marlon Wayans also co-starred in the Dungeons & Dragons movie, which didn’t exactly go on to break any box office records.
I saw it at a drive-in this summer. It goes into that rare category: Movies That Are Too Good Than They Ever Have the Right to Be.
Stupid idea, and a sitcom plot, but it was amiably funny. I doubt I’d bother to see it again, but it was good, lowbrow fun.
I’m thinking that if it were two white guys in ‘Black Chicks’, African Americans, and rightly so, would have been protesting the movie.
