With Friends coming to an end,
Lisa Kudrow is desperately trying to build
any type of a movie career, while Damon
Wayans is still attempting to rekindle his
only true on-screen accolade: the
decade-old sketch show I>In Living
Color. This shameful big screen
bomb by actor/director Richard Benjamin
is case in point of both scenarios.
Kudrow plays a prudish primadona who
unrealistically tries to clear her fathers
name by turning a controversial rapper
into her prim and proper companion.
Wayans plays the racy rhymer who uses
his nasally Homeboy the Clown shtick
and stilted swagger to acquiesce to any
demure demand. Together, the two polar
opposites generate less chemistry than
Al Pacino and Miss Piggy would as they
compare fur coats, battle the insults of a
senator and engage in countless
contrived situations that give Marci
X an F.
