EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevyCharles Lane's indie feature os a goo showcase for the British comedian
User Review - 10/10 by James Mwell umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch,,,its got a good cast thorughout this movie...i think that even though he is not an actor lenny henry played a good part throughout this movie...i think that the director of this Comedy movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie its an enjoyable movie 2 watch n is funny
User Review - 6/10 by Jason DI remember getting a kick out of True Identity when I was at a very young age. True Identity is about a black man on the run from the mob who decides to go incognito by disguising himself as a white man, what follows are a bunch of wacky shenanigans that aren't really funny anymore. Basically, this is an old time White Chicks but even sillier and harder to watch at times. J.T. Walsh and Frank Langella added a lot of fun to this film, but I'm sure they don't want many people remembering them for this film. Silly stuff.
User Review - 6/10 by Tom Hi remember watching this 12-14 years ago.i remember it as pretty hilarious back then. then again i was like 10 years old or something.
User Review - 6/10 by David BI seen this on late night tv had no idea what to expect but i wasnt expecting much, I taught this movie was pretty good i love him as the white man the make up was very good he really could pass for a white man it has some funny bits to.
User Review - 6/10 by James HFun film, with a really exceptional performance by Lenny Henry, great job. It's a little over the top at times, but it can be overlooked because of such a fine cast. Some of the make-up is awesome.
User Review - 4/10 by Morten LLenny Henry whited up! Was quite funny at the time, he didn't break America as planned though! A silly film but worth a watch if your not too busy!
User Review - 4/10 by Jack YYawnfest starring Lenny Henry with an American accent playing a white guy for most of the film. ’Nuff said.
User Review - 4/10 by Lone WThe funniest part about this film is watching Lenny without his accent. A few good gags, but not enough to prevent it looking very dated.
User Review - 2/10 by Kevin SNo Len, you're not the British Eddie Murphy. In fact you're not even the British Martin Lawrence.
