Movie Info
When brothers and fellow FBI agents Marcus (Marlon Wayans) and Kevin Copeland (Shawn Wayans) accidentally ruin an otherwise painstakingly executed drug bust, getting back into the good graces of their boss becomes a high-priority assignment in itself. With this in mind, Marcus and Kevin take on a case far beneath their usual standards when they agree to escort socialite sisters Brittany (Maitland Ward) and Tiffany Wilton (Anne Dudek) from a private terminal at JFK Airport to their hotel room in

Most gags are as weak as they are derivative, offering little incentive to suspend one's disbelief, and as for the gender politics, well... you can only imagine.
Top CriticA plotless romp of Manolo wobbling, 'Omigod!' yipping, and broadly comic attempts to conceal that unsquashable manly lust and slangin' machismo.
[I]t's the worst movie of the year.
Banshee-howlingly awful.
A tawdry excuse for a movie, but it has a handful of shameless giggles.
The film feels long when it should be brisk, and it's bloated with stretches of hot, dead air.
Predictable farce isn't very funny or original.
It's bad enough watching a dreadfully unfunny really awful comedy, but watching a very racist comedy makes it all the worse...
Complements the awfulness of its protagonists' Caucasian camouflage with putrid bathroom humor, pitiable romance and brainless racial/social commentary.
Odds on you know what you're in for, so if you're prepared to shell out your reddies for it, you'll find it amicable enough.
Let's forget about the clunky plot and shallow characters. Let's forget about the racist undertones of the film. Bottom line, the white chicks scare me. Seriously. They're freaky looking. They are the stuff of nightmares.
Think Mean Girls rewritten by Joe Piscopo.
Amid an overbearing story that suffocates its humor, Chicks' increasingly repetitive and tired jokes reek of a comedy on autopilot.
From frame one, the screen is populated with broad, unfunny caricatures and no one resembling an actual person.
... a bottom-of-the-page, jump-it-deep-inside meaningless movie review written by a dog
Quem disse aos irmãos Wayans que eles são engraçados? Provavelmente a mesma pessoa que os convenceu de que a maquiagem utilizada no filme era boa...
Stupid, crude, inept, illogical, and, alas, very funny.
Wayans takes one (unfunny) joke and runs with it far beyond the realms of plausibility to a point where even Michael Jackson would draw the line.
The Wayans brothers are gifted actors-filmmakers, so why is it that they continually make lazy, unchallenging movies?
White Girls is something of a guilty pleasure -- it's undeniably crass and stupid but it's also frequently hilarious.
Best display of self-deprecation ever: "Hi, I'm Carnie Wilson before my gastric bypass surgery! Someone throw Shamu back in the ocean!"

'White Chicks' stars comedian brothers Marlon and Shawn Wayans, as two FBI agents, who in order to save their jobs dress up as women on a kidnapper's list. Somehow casting a spell over everyone they meet, who all seem to suspend all of their disbelief, they fool their bosses and real life friends of the women they are impersonating and try and solve the case.
At least, that's what happens occasionally. The story jolts from one random gag to another, with no real connecting threads to actually keep the film together. This isn't helped by the gags themselves, in total one, that two black men are dressed as two white women.
Once the initial titters of the stunt have worn off, you're left with a ninety minute wander through no man's land, along with two very alarmingly scary 'white chick' costumes. The only thing the film does succeed at is pushing racist undertones to the very surface, managing to insult many, many people.
There are the odd laughable moment, although most of that is in pity for the cast and crew. However, watching such a shockingly terrible film does make you appreciate good pieces of cinema so much more. Worst film of 2004, almost definitely. Where would it sit in the worst films of all time? Very near the top. Or at least it most certainly should. A despicable piece of film-making.
