Before 'Scary Movie' the Wayans Brothers made this movie, 'Don't Be a Menace'. It is a spoof on movies like 'Boyz N the Hood' and 'Menace II Society', two great movies about the hoods in Los Angeles.
'Don't Be a Menace' starts pretty nice, although stupid, with some very funny moments. It is the same kind of humor you see in 'Scary Movie', not the most intelligent kind. As long as it works that is fine, but after thirty minutes I wanted this movie to end. After this every single joke was the same. When a movie like this becomes boring it is not very good. Not that it is good with any other kind of movie, but here it seems actually pretty hard to make it boring.
Although 'Scary Movie' doesn't belong to my favorite movies either at least I had fun while watching it. For the first thirty minutes it was the same with this movie. Watch those minutes and then turn to something else.
