Another Sinbad Triumph!!
18 May 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Kevin Franklin (Sinbad) finds himself in debt and is forced to pull off the hoax of the century by posing as an affluent dentist in suburbia, USA. Naturally, hilarity ensues as Franklin, a street smart con-man, is forced to adapt to the norms and conventions of middle-class white America. Expecting a conservative dentist, the host family bites off more than they can chew as Franklin turns their world upside down! Get ready to raise the roof!!! lol!

But amid all this comedy is a great lesson about acceptance of other cultures and lifestyles. Not only does Sinbad change their lives, but something in Sinbad changes too.

I just bought this on DVD (finally!) and haven't laughed this hard since "A Night With Sinbad" at the Dallas Convention Center in '96 where he introduced his now famous "peanut butter" bit!
