Trivia:

Art Carney's ex-wife, Barbara, visited the set and gave Mike Epps an autographed photo of Art. Epps was extremely flattered by the present.

Goofs:

Factual errors: When the bus is not picking up passengers, the digital destination sign displays "OUT OF SERVICE" and has been shown a few times in the movie. In real life, New York City Transit buses display "NOT IN SERVICE".

Quotes:

Ralph Kramden:[after getting kicked out of the pool hall and then Ed's phone rings] What are you doing? We got to get back in there.
Ed Norton:[Ed picks up the message on his phone] No time to play. We've got a major back up in the sewer system.
Ralph Kramden:How come every time we go out they call you?
Ed Norton:I'm a specialist. It's like being a brain surgeon or Spider-Man.
Ralph Kramden:Yeah, but Spider-Man won't let us get our asses beat down in a pool hall.

Soundtrack:

Hot to Trot

Ugh.

I have higher expectations for a movie than a bottom-of-the-barrel sitcom episode. I didn't want to go but the group voted for this one. I'll be reminding those who voted to see this movie about their poor taste when we vote for the next movies to see.

The producers, writers, director, movie executives, etc. should hang their heads in shame. They knew it wasn't funny when they released it. The test audiences, if there were any, must have been ignored.

Why does Hollywood release this kind of junk and then wonder why movie attendance is down? Why do actors sign up even after reading the script and knowing this will be a second-rate movie, at best?
