Denise Richards is easy on the eyes, but can't act a lick. My wife said to me three times during the film, "this movie is just awful".
Tyler Perry does an adequate portrayal of the cliché black aunt, and there are some entertaining and funny parts, but the other two main characters lay large emu eggs.
The plot becomes very predictable when the clip from a prior movie of the same genre is shown. After that, there is no suspense.
Even Tom Arnold and John Amos struggle to keep it believable.
Romeo and Doris Roberts are okay, but nothing is going to salvage this train wreck.
