  • Oct 11, 2011
    No real story, uninteresting characters, and bad standup courtesy of <a href="http://www.flixster.com/actor/eddie-griffin">Eddie Griffin</a>.

    Crazy, funny! A little slow in the beginning but the rest of the movie is ok. Not excellent, but funny in the only way that is of Eddie Griffin.
