This might be one of the
worst films I have seen in my entire life, a lifeless
bore of a movie that might possibly kill the careers of
both Lisa Kudrow and Damon Wayans. I don't know
why it was made, and I don't think I want to know --
ever. I never even want to hear this films title
mentioned again, though it most certainly will be at
this years prestigious Golden Razzies. Burn in
hell, "Marci X", and may the flames that
engulf you never be extinguished.
Lisa Kudrow stars as a Jewish-American princess who
takes control of a hip-hop record label and is forced to
try and transform that label's biggest star, Dr. S
(Damon Wayans) into more of a presentable celebrity.
The bizarre thing is that this film turns into somewhat
of a romantic comedy, which is wholly loathable because
neither Wayans of Kudrow can do jack crap when it comes
to romance and the intelligent execution of romance.
The film boasts a somewhat impressive supporting cast,
including Tony award winner Christine Baranski and Tony
award winner Jane Krakowski. I cringe when I think
of how desperate for work they must have been to agree
to do this film. This must have been before
"Chicago" and "Nine". Their
film careers now have another blemish.
That is really all I can say about this pathetic comedy
that is the worst film of the year thus far. We
know Lisa Kudrow can be funny, i.e. "Romy and
Michelle's High School Reunion" and we know that
Damon Wayans can be funny, i.e. "The Great White
Hype". In this film, however, funny is the
last thing that comes to mind.
