Reviews for Marci X
Marci X is the kind of terrible movie I'm almost glad I've seen, because this decade probably won't bring a worse movie than this.

It's no masterpiece, but I found it consistently good-hearted and sometimes hilarious, and the sparse crowd I saw it with was laughing as much as I was, especially at the outrageous rap numbers.

Top CriticIt's the kind of movie that Mel Brooks used to make, warts and all.

A sketch comedy that misses more than it hits.

Como algum estúdio pôde aprovar este roteiro? Como os atores aceitaram participar do projeto? Como este conseguiu ser lançado? Como Benjamin pode ser chamado de ‘cineasta’?

Suggests a sort of Judeo-Nubian alliance that would supposedly make uptight WASP's quake with fear. I think.

A more blithe display of astonishingly clueless anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia, and sheer bad taste has not been seen since probably ever.

Draw a big red "X" through this one.

A bad joke that turns out to be a bad movie as well.

The fatal flaw of Marci X is its complete and total disconnect from the contemporary zeitgeist of hip-hop culture in American society.
08/31/03
If you're looking for laughs, X doesn't mark the spot.

Top CriticIf the context of Marci X were more realistic, a lot of these gags would soar. But the context is drag-show dinner theater.

J.A.P. meets rap, but it's not a marriage made in heaven -- (very) far from it, in fact.

A brief bit about a celibate boy band scores big; the rest is just noise.

Given the songs were written by South Park songwriter Marc Shaiman, the lyrics should be more caustic. Like that show, the film is equally irreverent but nowhere near as intelligent or subversive.

The title must have been transcribed wrong. This film should be called Marci. . . Yech!
