Poor, Overall Poor and Nothing But Awful!, 24 September 2005
1/10
Author: Gerrit van der Heide from Netherlands

A ridiculous and insulting movie to the Old English History!

At first i found it funny, but then it only Got Worse!

Marsha Thomason's talent is wasted on this Movie. Thomason's "inability" to "adapt" to her "role", is shown throughout the movie when she "seems" totally "uncomfortable" with her role.

Martin Lawrence for his standard, was overall ridiculously awful, Old moves and Old Jokes.

And not even good "Old Jokes"!

And "The Ali Schuffle" wasn't made Anymore special in some of the, "Fightscene's". His performance was Joke, and the Hole Movie was a Joke.

I really Felt sorry for Marsha Thomason ho had her Talent wasted.

In my eyes Laurence learned a big lesson : "Do not bring America in to British History!

Because if you do, the jokes must be a lot better!

The Plot seemed alright but the movie failed Big Time!

I think Lawrence must Find "New Idea's" Or at least "Funny Old Jokes".

This Movie overall was a Shambolic "Joke"!

Because this was an awful movie that i wouldn't recommend anyone to see!

My Score : 1.0

Groeten Gerrit
