Review Time
Warning:
there is flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/vehicle crash/bodily
functions/drugs/animal biting/romantic intent with an animal/medical/references
to racism, sexism, sexual assault implications and Russia/those from the rainbow community may or may not find this film offensive.
In
one way or another this is a family project: briefly; we have these two FBI Agents; Agent Kevin
Copeland/other characters and Agent Marcus Anthony Copeland [Shawn & Marlon
Wayans:] these two brothers/agents go undercover to hopefully solve this case
as Brittany Wilson and/or Tiffany Wilson whilst the real versions of these
people stay in his hotel getting there are very minor yet catastrophic in their
minds injuries repaired and on a quick side note; Keenen Ivory Wayans: Writer
story by and screenplay by/Producer/Director Shawn Wayans Writer story by and
screenplay by/Producer Marlon Wayans Writer story by and screenplay by/Producer
yes just to cover my back I am not being racist here I have looked into it they
are all family.
Generally
speaking: the framework and pacing of this
109 minutes film is good; as it sticks to its outlay and just gets on with
moving the film at a good pace.
Comedy, art and action; obviously we have these two
brothers in different disguises, a young mother back and forth comedy skit or
much later a dance off, which from an artistic perspective is smoothly
executed, but there is a few comedy references that have not aged that well at
all such as singing along to a song that uses the African-American terminology
where without being racist, but making my point yes I am fully aware that 99.9%
of the time the Wayans brothers can use this expression, but not when they are
under cover as a couple of caucasian women and I will make reference to the
other unpleasant comedy reference later on in this content, even though the
other unpleasant comedy reference has a let's just say suitable outcome.
Character developments and performances; they are good
versions of what they are meant to be, to be fair when or if you choose to see
this film, this is one of those occasions where, I can't criticise them too
much based on they are designed that way as in our lead partnership of FBI
Agent Kevin Copeland/Brittany Wilson/other characters: Shawn Wayans and/or FBI
Agent Marcus Anthony Copeland/Tiffany Wilson/other characters: Marlon Wayans.
Meaning if they don't start off where they start off from how are they meant to
learn and consequently evolve as individuals into better people. So as you can
see/read they use the outlay of their partnership character developments
individually speaking of course to have this richer for the experience
narrative naturally available to them throughout this film. The cast of
performers are all good as well, but it is down to the brothers to be the
driving force behind this title, because without them, this film would have
been unspeakably worse by no stretch of the imagination
This
film receives: 7/10, this film is good; yes it
has some outdated and unacceptable bits in it and before I hear "But this
film is roughly 20 years old." Even with that being the case talking about
and actively participating in date sexual assault drug drink spiking even back
then was still unacceptable. But putting that to one side as I have chosen in
this content in one where another it shows how women are even extremely harsh
on themselves and each other or how is some cases they tried to be noticed by
the opposite sex, but the opposite sex having clearly no idea of how much they
have to go through to do these things, so there is clearly some good substance
here, you just may have to look past the not so good segments or elements of
this film to find them. This film has some awards to its name and I may as well
tell you from the very beginning; that most of them are negative. Positives
