Fresh and Exciting

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

The acting in this movie is really good.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

That's what they do in Hollywood : sequels ! And we all know sequels are most of the time worse than the original In this case , this movie is a big exemple of how a sequel can be worse than the original They've gone to far with the terrible script and the lack of suspense

Ahh, what can I say? It's lame and dry. At times I wanted to leave my seat. And instead of laughing, I suffered the absence of laughing or even smiling ! To know why it was like that; I have one fair answer to you : The Script. This story is worn away, and the writing didn't spend much effort on renewing it a bit. I recalled (Some Like it Hot) all the way, (White Chicks) for some time, and the original Big Momma's movie; (Big Momma's House), naturally. Though, it isn't bad for a movie to be like older movies, the real bad is being anything ELSE them as well. And that's what this movie pulled off perfectly !I saw all the events miles away before happening, and to add a ton of fuel, the comedy didn't compensate. In fact, I didn't run into comedy in the first place. All what this movie had to make laughs was the ancient situation of man-disguised-as-a-girl seeing a real girl taking off her clothes (and he throws a line Sean Connery has said in Goldfinger, 47 years before !), plus some nauseating situation where Martin Lawrence as big Momma was forced to be naked in a fine art class, and no need to say that both ended as unfunny ! So there was no new story, new dealing or any comedy. The third alone is sad for a comedy to achieve. Add to that side bugging notes. To instance : While the sight of Big Momma is horrible, she always finds a man who falls for her. And this time the man who fell for her before then knew her secret as a man, does it again ??!! The teacher of the fine art class sure got enough time to know Big Momma's fact as a man, though the movie rushed that moment strangely. And when we see the guard entering the class earlier, we easily predict his line while suggesting that Big Momma poses naked; which tells you how there is something wrong with the comic sense of the movie's directing or editing !Nevertheless, it wasn't all bad. It had some, rather a few, merits. It preferred not to use the nasty stuff that every comedy nowadays obligatorily has (sex jokes, rude language, and – yes – some farting). Although it contained an unnecessary urinating scene, but thank god it was just one ! Brandon T. Jackson gave so right performance. Dancing with Martin Lawrence, in one scene, was done without any artificiality. And the moment of writing a song during the first date was inspired and sweet, being the only "original" moment of this ceremony of failed rehashing ! I was sad the most for Martin Lawrence. That guy assured, with many movies, that his mentality is poor. Look at him choosing no daring project, no original idea, one after another. And he just doesn't work it out smartly. Thus, this time I messed him on screen. There was no actual funny stuff for him to perform, and clearly he didn't come up with a material of his own. This is one of his least enjoyable comedies. The thing is, you can say the same about most of his comedies lately !I have always said that Lawrence doesn't have it to do pure action, drama, romance like his fellow Well Smith. But according to movies like (Big Momma 3), I knew that he doesn't have the clever mentality of Smith too ! So he must learn himself a lesson and think twice, or think, about the scripts he selects, since there is nothing uglier than non funny comic star ! The problem of (Big Mommas : Like Father, Like Son) isn't about having no originality with the formulaic plot; it's about having no juice inside this formulaic plot, as if the writers didn't have time to make any creative situations or amusing lines (I bet, this movie doesn't make its own makers laugh !). So with another script, or true script, it could have been comic and memorable. Because being the way it is, makes it a disposable movie to be watched and forgotten. Dully watched and quickly forgotten to be precise !

This film falls flat with every joke. As mentioned by someone before, you may smirk occasionally if this is your sort of thing, but this isn't even worth renting. Easily forgettable and a regurgitation of the previous instalments. Save your time and money. The themes in this are clichéd and ripped straight from every other teen movie with the whole "undercover" while getting in on the ladies' dressing rooms type-thing going on. Very outdated and I would recommend White Chicks over this any day, that's actually got some spirit to it. I think Martin Lawrence tries too hard with his comedy, I've never really liked him, but that's just my opinion. He's not a "funny" guy and can never get the balance right between action/police cop star and comedian. The Wayans brothers are "funny" and pull it off naturally.

So most of you have probably already read the reviews which state why this movie is bad in just about every way, but i want to let you know in my review how watching this movie may actually be detrimental to your quality of life. There is this girl who i like very much. She is the type of woman who i would love to marry someday, but unfortunately she goes to a college in a city about 3 hours away form my university, so i rarely get to see her. We managed to develop something of a friendly relationship this summer, and so we keep up by texting and skyping regularly, and such. She came in to town this weekend, so i was very excited to do everything i could to impress her and show her that the boys at her school cant compare to my undeniable swag. Everyhting was going perfect. we met up, we hung out at a football game with some friends, went to sonic, and decided to rent a movie.... For some reason, the two of us and the three other friends we were with thought that "Big Mamas house: like father like son" might be a wise movie choice. We couldn't have been further from the truth. The movie is not even 'so stupid its funny' funny. We all sat in my living room with no expression on our faces and headaches and glazed eyes. My evening was ruined. She is never going to come to my house again. Thank you big mama for ruining my potential satisfaction in life. don't see this movie, under any circumstances, but particularly if you care about anyone around you.
