Reviews

Christian Science Monitor - David Sterritt
The comedy is often crass and crude, but it makes telling points about how much of "race" is more about the words and gestures we use than the actual colors of our skins.
63
USA Today - Mike Clark
Think of a B-grade "Bulworth" with lesser talents than A-listers Warren Beatty and Halle Berry.
63
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Flashes of inspiration illuminate stretches of routine sitcom material; it's the kind of movie where the audience laughs loudly and then falls silent for the next five minutes.
50
Village Voice - Mark Holcomb
Most Wanted isn't aiming for social commentary, but it isn't too difficult to enjoy its good-natured humor.
50
New York Daily News - Jami Bernard
An unerring sign of the awfulness of Malibu's Most Wanted is a series of the least funny outtakes ever appended to a movie's closing credits.
