Reviews for Fakin' Da Funk
While it’s no great work of cinema, this movie about serious racial issues is a lot funnier than you might expect.
Chey shows a keen ear for black English, a well-honed comic imagination, and an upbeat humanism; Zoltan David’s camera work is outstanding, especially the bravura Steadicam opening shot.
