Reviews for Guess Who
Guess Who is a pleasant surprise. Ashton Kutcher’s at his most endearing and Bernie Mac is the best he’s been in a feature film.
03/23/05
Forgoes its predecessor’s moralizing in favor of Meet the Parents-style conflict.
03/23/05
It's funny enough, and surprisingly well-written in individual scenes, but why, in the end, does it strive for so little?
03/23/05
Just as Meet the Parents begat Meet the Fockers, if Guess Who turns out to be a hit, expect a sequel, Meet the Honkies, somewhere down the line.
03/23/05
After setting the stage with insultingly shopworn plot contrivances, Guess Who finds its comedy footing by playfully dancing along the edge of political incorrectness.
03/23/05
Mac is consistently funny and likeable, but the same can't be said for the rest of the cast. Without him, the movie would have been pretty much unwatchable.
03/23/05
Putting an interracial love story on screen may have been bold in 1967, but by now it should be more casual than it is. The skittish, focus-grouped blandness of Guess Who comes through in the flavorlessness of the romance.
03/23/05
Top CriticIt offers a few solid laughs and will provoke some smiles, but there's too much of a tendency to go for obvious, largely unfunny humor when something more subtle would have satisfied.

Top Critic...I found myself laughing pretty consistently the whole way through...
03/22/05
1st third is sharp, funny, well edited & directed. But, contrivances accumulate one after the other.
03/22/05
Bernie Mac easily makes up for a miscast Ashton Kutcher in a gem of comic timing.
03/22/05
the limited premise works for longer than it should largely due to the chemistry between its leads Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher.
03/22/05
The jokes may be weak, but the social context the gags broadcast with them comes in surprisingly strong.
