I took at gander at this just for the hell of it & pretty much expected "crap personified".
However, I actually enjoyed this flick (albeit a bit slow and painful in the early sequences).
Maybe I expected so little that I was mesmerized by the actual effort, but I'm glad I gave it a tumble. There are a few good laughs that begin to occur halfway through the movie, and the acting by the main players was more than decent.
The "ebonics lesson" was very entertaining and the "homeless guy on the street" was hysterical, however I do believe that the editing of the shots and sequences left a wee bit to be desired.
