All I can say is that this movie is mad hot! I JUST LOVE IT! It's one of the best comedy movies that I've seen this year! That movie had me laughing so hard, that I cried, for real! Miguel Nunez Jr. is mad funny and so is Tommy Davidson, with his gold-teeth behind! Ginuwine did good for his first role in this movie! But Lil' Kim was kinda whack, I guess she did okay! She did good at the end though! It's a really, really, really funny movie! My aunt was going to see it, and I said "Can I see it (with you) again, can I see it again please?! It was mad funny, I want to see it again!" I know one thing though, I'm going to get the "Juwanna Mann" tape or dvd whenever it comes out!
In my opinion, the best scene is massage parlor. Juwanna and his friend goes to the massage parlor. Friend gets beautiful woman, but Juwanna Mann gets bald fat man. It was funny. I was looking for the scene many years ago, but I didn't know that it's the movie. The movie is very funny and hilarious.
There is nothing new about the plot to this movie. But, it is pretty funny. I liked the part when Juwanna gets pulled over by the cop and it turns out he wants to become a woman. That was good. Also, when Juwanna gives the women tips about men. And Tommy Davidson was funny as Puff Smokey with his silver teeth and his antics with Juwanna. Of course, at the end, our lead character learns a life lesson and changes his way.
FINAL VERDICT: Not a bad way to pass a Saturday afternoon. It isn't too long and does have some humor.

After building and screening this film I come to a very simple conclusion. This film is good for a few good laughs. Don't expect any more than the previews give you. Very predictable plot along with simple comedy. You can't blame them for trying, I guess.

Your standard "jerk finds his humanity through identification with an Other" formula comedy. In this case, the Other is a female--which is usually a recipe for disaster unless the jerk is Dustin Hoffman.
I let this run as background noise after another movie ended, and was surprised to find myself watching it and even laughing a few times. I can't recommend spending money on a rental, but if it comes on cable you could do worse.
