The Hot Chick (2002)
1/10
Lower than the low

There are many problems with this movie but the biggest is: IT's NOT FUNNY. Not even a single bit.

The lead guy (Rob Schneider) is as funny as cancer... seriously bad undergraduate stuff that looks more like a church campfire sketch than a PG movie. Honestly this makes Mr Bean look sophisticated and mature... The supporting cast are as interesting as a dial tone; even the ones thrown in for the "eye-candy" factor weren't especially attractive.

Another problem is that this movie is as sanitised as the Brady Bunch. You almost expect Alice to pop up somewhere with some idiotic line and that catatonic look on her face.

But in spite of the goody two shoes treatment, the level of racism in this movie is through the roof. From the Asian woman who works painting nails in the mall who speaks "Engrish", the old black guy working in the men's toilet, the young black guy who liked the fat chick with the big bum the list of ugly stereo types goes on and on and on.

In spite of using racial vilification and bullying to prop it up, this train wreck falls flat on its face.

Watching this movie was a truly vile experience; which is quite an achievement for a "comedy".
