Martin Lawrence delivers a fine performance as always, and his character has depth and nuance not usually seen in this genre. Lawrence is equally compelling when playing dramatic roles as well as comedic parts.
Willie Smith however always appears as though he's adrift at sea and may veer off and hit a Rock at any moment. Ultimately, there was no fresh and no prince... just a bored, confused and awkward character so unsure of himself that watching his performance I had the impression someone else was pulling his strings, as though he stumbled through every scene like a witless automaton. If ever anyone were a river for his people, whatever that means, he's not Smith.
All in all it's a useless movie without feet. Forget this one, fellas, watch it too long and your hair might out.
I give it Two Cleveland Steamers on the CalebCaleb rating scale.
