Reviews for Marci X
Avert your eyes
08/25/03
A bad joke that turns out to be a bad movie as well.
08/31/03
The actors had little to work with in this passe social satire, but sharper performances might have saved Marci from total humorless ruin.
08/25/03
In what universe does a New York Jewish socialite and a hardcore, streetwise rapper sound like a good pairing for a romantic comedy?
08/25/03
Marci X is silly, crude, juvenile and often very, very funny.
08/23/03
This is the kind of movie that would leave a hopeful crowd feeling let down, but might sparkle like a tiara in a trash can for someone who discovers it by chance.
08/25/03
Sports woefully outmoded cultural punchlines.
08/26/03
It's the kind of movie that Mel Brooks used to make, warts and all.
02/05/04
The fatal flaw of Marci X is its complete and total disconnect from the contemporary zeitgeist of hip-hop culture in American society.
08/31/03
Draw a big red "X" through this one.
09/01/03
If the context of Marci X were more realistic, a lot of these gags would soar. But the context is drag-show dinner theater.
08/30/03
A movie apparently determined to set back the progress of blacks in American culture by several decades.
08/27/03
Lame and painfully dated.
08/25/03
Marci X is the kind of terrible movie I'm almost glad I've seen, because this decade probably won't bring a worse movie than this.
09/27/07
A sketch comedy that misses more than it hits.
01/27/04
It's made by people who apparently don't know a damned thing about rap or hip-hop and have made lame sitcom with 30 minutes of story stretched out to 90 minutes of movie.
08/27/03
J.A.P. meets rap, but it's not a marriage made in heaven -- (very) far from it, in fact.
08/30/03
[A] turkey.
08/25/03
Watching Damon Wayans and Lisa Kudrow kiss, repeatedly, is simultaneously the grossest and most subversive thing I have seen in a long time.
