Reviews for Whiteboyz
The fish-out-of-water scenario is frequently hilarious, and the linguistic prowess of the actors is impressive.
Many of the characters are neglected, even though most are not of much importance, but that's because Hoch and company don't take any time to add the correct amount of realism to it.
...a woefully unfunny rap-oriented satire that’s about as amusing as a carjacking...[a] tired and baseless culture comedy
Many scenes of confrontation play like heavy-handed, uncomfortably forced improv.
