I didn't think I'd like it from the commercials, but I did. It was hilarious in parts and stupid in others. I don't like Chris Rock, but I gave it a chance....I think by having low expectations, instead of being disappointed, I was pleasantly surprised.

But when a couple of white girls sat next to me, I very discreetly moved up next to a black family the row above me. They looked surprised to see me move right when the opening credits started, but when I quietly explained that I didn't think I could properly enjoy this particular movie sitting next to two white girls, they welcomed me to the row.

HC you didn't want the white girls sitting next to you? Were they hushing you because you were being annoying (i.e. talking at the screen) or something? LOL

LOL! Yeah, they were sighing and sniffing at the people who were talking to the screen, so I know I made the right choice. Also, before the movie even started, they were already going back and forth with the "Ohmigod, this is like so much fun! Do you think this is gonna be like any good?" etc. I was at the movies to have a good strong laugh (that day, I needed it REAL bad), so I felt like if I'm going to be cracking up or screaming "Oh hell naw" I needed to at least sit near some people who weren't going to be saying "Like, I don't get it?"

I think the idea of the movie could have been better but like I said before it was poorly done, some things didn't add up.

For instance this gorgeous (skanky dressed) girl hasn't seen Chris in 8 years and all of sudden she wants him and needs him for everything in her life.

His wife was amazing! But his only reason why he was unhappy was because he was bored (which by the way was he fault because he was a boring person)

Then he complained that his wife didnt want to have sex with him but his wife was beautiful and he looked well....a hot ass mess.

I guess what irriated me in the movie was not so much the actual movie but Chris Rock's character. there it is.

You said it! He looked a hot mess and is it just me or was he holding his mouth like he had snuff in his lip the entire movie....like Angelica from the Rugrats.

which is why i don't think i can go see this movie. from what i've heard and read about this movie, i know too many REAL LIFE fellas in similar situations and i can't stomach laughing at this. at least not now.

I agree with you on that eventhough I saw it. That was the thing my friends and I discussed the most after the move was how many people we knew personally or heard of in this type of mess. I know of a guy at work and he has a 'friend' that seems too close for comfort...yet I will not say anything to him whereas it is not for me to say.
