Predrag Not all movies are made to answer some of life's most puzzling questions. Not all movies are supposed to be 'intelligent' or 'thought-provoking'. Not all movies are made to change the world. Some movies are made for us to be able to sit back for one and a half hours, forget all our troubles and just have a good scream. This is one of those movies.. All my favorite comedy actors are here: Jada of course (looking as lovely as I've ever seen her), Dave Chapelle, Duane Martin, Paula Jai Parker, Aida Turturro, LL Cool J and Dartanyan Edmonds. Even Foxy Brown makes an appearance and it's not too bad either.Overall, it is funny. Everyone has experienced the "blind date" syndrome and this movie takes it to another level. Lynne with the wine and fried chicken was funny, Tommies 3 friends in the gay club was classic, and everything that could go wrong for Tommie goes wrong. Jada was very sexy, smart, and in control. Something a lot of men may not enjoy watching. And who could hate a movie with the great Billy Dee Williams making a cameo appearance? Many people hated this movie and I can not see why unless your expectations were to high to begin with. Just relax, watch it, laugh, reflect, and have a good evening. We all know Jada and Tommy can do much better in other roles. All actors can have an average film or too in their careers.Overall rating: 7 out of 10.
Breeze Summers Though the film had some predictable moments, overall it was entertaining to say the least. The scence with the She males was just plain hilarious!!!! Moreover, the park scene had some funny lines. Romaine's "Damn baby let me suck the left one and make the right one jealous", had me rolling on the floor. Dave Chappelle and LL Cool J had limited participation, but brought good aspects to the film. Overall, there have been some horrible films produced by Hollywood, this wasn't one of them. So final opinion, light hearted, mixed with some sparse witty dialog made it a worth while film. Tommy Davidson, not the funniest person I've seen on the screen didn't do that bad of a job.
aaronkid4 Well. Whoever the *beep* you are, you don't know what you're talking about. "Woo" may not be the best movie in the world, but it was not "awful" as you so rudely stated it to be. It has comedy, it's fun, it's feel good. Let me ask you a question...are you African American? If you are not that would explain why you didn't enjoy the movie. I'm not being racist hopefully, I'm just saying that black people are not huge critics on films. They just lay back, and enjoy. Tommy Lee Davidson's role was kind of boring...but Jada was funny, and sexy, and very entertaining, including the random people (lady ordering the drinks, and Pookee!) Point....Be quiet if you don't know what you're talking about. NOW WHAT!?!?!?
Master Brown MILD SPOILERSI thought this movie was a bit all over the place. The concept was fun, but wasted on a weak script.I stayed up late to watch this because it looked like fun, but I hardly laughed.Good points: The stolen car. Tim uses his remote to activate car alarm to discover the alarm is the only thing left.I also like the scene in the hidden club when Woo starts getting down and Tim hasn't got a clue what to do, then asks her to dance at the wrong time.Not so good points: I also think Jada Pinket was the wrong choice for Woo. Not foxy enough, or funny enough. There are many funny great looking young black actresses in cable TV sitcoms who could have caned that part.Don't need to see it twice. Look forward to a remake, with a stronger script in fifteen years or so.
