User Reviews

"Week-en at Bernies" meets "HOOP-DREAMS"

Basic premise for the movie: "You get some black comedians film them doing their shtick. Two down-and out comedians trying to make a dollar out of 15 cents. You throw in a get-rich gimmick. Some life danger of why they need the money, so we don't think they are just a bunch of lazy hustlers. Some hot woman every here and there. Some physical comedy so its just not the same old same old. You got this movie. As for the women, it starts off with a guy fantasizing about women in a "LIMO". Then it gets to the part of his neighbor running on a tread-mill no bras wet t-shirt. It ain't a lot but she had a lot, and I'll take it. I liked this film.
