    After scoring several direct hits with his blaxploitation spoof I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, Keenen Ivory Wayans shoots high, wide and not very handsomely with this scattergun parody of film noir and 'hood crime pictures. Clearly spreading himself too thin, Wayans seems to be the only performer with real faith in his script, which is woefully predictable considering he was the brains behind the “In Living Color” TV series that helped launch Jim Carrey. His direction is equally sloppy, as he too often settles for the easy (and occasionally offensive) gag and fails to rein in the excessive exuberance of Jada Pinkett (now married to Will Smith).

    This film is a low down dirty shame

    An extremely cheesey, poorly scripted wagon for the star of the film who also wrote and directed the movie. Avoid at all costs
