Okay stuff shirts. Time to unbutton that top button and relax and watch a funny movie. Although not brilliant, this movie does entertain. It offers good comic acting, a silly but amusing story, and manages not to take itself seriously. Martin Lawrence does a great job in drag. The rest of the cast is funny too, especially the actors who play the bad guys. But what is most important is that the movie entertains, is not pretentious, does not come off as being some hokey, pseudo-intellectual, touchy-feely concoction. Mr. Lawrence decided to make a movie that would put a smile on your face. He creates a movie that combines popular features of the comedy-genre - slapstick, goofy lines, site gags - to produce a funny movie. And what's the purpose of going to movie if not to be entertained? There are some who might dismiss this movie as unsophisticated, ill-conceived, and half-baked. Untrue! This is comedy and it's entertaining.
