| FilmsInReview.comVictoria AlexanderCharming, sweet, and I'm looking forward to seeing all these characters again. |
| Sun Publications (Chicago, IL)Josh LarsenA far smarter send-up of cultural stereotypes than `Bringing Down the House.' |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekNo more than a benign time-waster, not consistently funny enough to recommend, but the fact that it isn't the horror its trailers suggested is itself a relief. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerSean AxmakerToo bad the film, which Kennedy spun from a stand-up skit, remains as blissfully unaware of its possibilities as B-Rad is of his absurdity. |
| Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.comScott Von DoviakDirector John Whitesell is reduced to zeroing in on Kennedy's butt cleavage, a sure sign of comedic desperation. |

| Boston GlobeWesley MorrisKennedy doesn't take the character any deeper than a caricature of rich, nonblack fans of hip-hop culture. But as a caricature, he's fantastic. |
