There are some funny moments, but it's quite obvious that no one associated with this movie knows anything about rap music.

Reviews for Marci X
A bad joke that turns out to be a bad movie as well.
08/31/03
Watching Damon Wayans and Lisa Kudrow kiss, repeatedly, is simultaneously the grossest and most subversive thing I have seen in a long time.

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
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 CriticThe actors had little to work with in this passe social satire, but sharper performances might have saved Marci from total humorless ruin.

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’?

A mess of would-be satire and condescending humor that never works for a second. Every person involved with this disaster should be ashamed.
08/27/03
Bring lowered expectations to Marci X, and you could discover a mildly diverting comedy.

There is more to [Lisa] Kudrow—and "Marci X" proves it—than Phoebe Buffay...An unexpectedly sharp-nailed satire.
08/23/03
If you're looking for laughs, X doesn't mark the spot.
08/30/03
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.
09/27/07
Marci X proves once again that dumbing down the movie in order to please the lowest common denominator cannot go hand and hand with scathing satire.
08/22/03
A talent-stuffed assemblage of barbs and giddy musical numbers that shouldn't be written off as a feature flop -- but savored instead for the cult-ready collection of late-night satirical skits and misses it is.
08/27/03
Top CriticIt's the kind of movie that Mel Brooks used to make, warts and all.
02/05/04
J.A.P. meets rap, but it's not a marriage made in heaven -- (very) far from it, in fact.
08/30/03
Suggests a sort of Judeo-Nubian alliance that would supposedly make uptight WASP's quake with fear. I think.
