I really wanted to like this movie...obviously because Chris Rock is the funniest comedian working today, and in the top 5 of all time, but about 20 minutes into the film I realized that the writing just wasn't all it could be. Don't get me wrong, Rock does all that he can with what's given him, but it becomes another predictable comedy. Would I recommend this to a friend? Only if my friend is a big Chris Rock fan, if not don't bother.
