Kenya Barris writes for an audience who hasn't evolved past 1968.
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 this cracked me up because it's true.
Yoooooo😂😂😂😂😂
This would’ve been a good opportunity for a dark skin black woman to play a lead character in a movie about interracial relationship. Was it really an interracial romance if Lauren is biracial? I like Lauren London but it made no sense to have two darker brown parents and then cast a mixed race daughter.
*The casting all around was just as awful as the script!* 🎭
Colorism never takes a day off...
Yes, it is still interracial as she is a biracial black person
Jonah Hill looks like a wind-burnt lumberjack in that background. A wind-burnt lumberjack who moved out west to pursue surfing as a new gig.
I was so disappointed. Absolutely ZERO chemistry and an all-time not-believable couple …Julia-Louis Dreyfus and David Duchovny acted like they had head injuries. Nia Long and Eddie Murphy were totally humorless and unrealistic. The comedy was corny and the story was ridiculous, especially with the surprise wedding at the end. Kenya Barris is so heavy handed, melodramatic, and broad. I just don’t get him. This premise had a ton of potential.
Jonah Hill looked like he was simultaneously filming another movie as Dog the Bounty Hunter lol
Even ray charles can see Lauren and joah hill had no chemistry.
How she go from the other fine guy to this not at all attractive guy.... and no chemistry.... no details to show a valid reason.... no depth. So unhappy with this film. Giving the brown girl the worst ....a subpar guy, a lie of a cheap ring, a lie for manhood, him lying about quitting his job, a Podcaster never able to articulate?! Slandering Muslims as shallow and uneducated. Most Muslims are extremely dedicated and disciplined....nooooo we would not accept a male that subpar nor this talking down to our people. 😔
Netflix movies are definitely like a box of chocolates.
You never know what you’re gonna get😂🤣
Jonah Hill looks older than Julia Louis Dreyfus in this movie. It was very distracting thus his parents felt like his siblings to me. Lauren London did the film ATL in 2006 and this film with her acting and style feels like her ATL character never grew up. Beautiful young woman but the acting was something to be desired. This film was giving Tyler Perry first movie film budget. The writing was lazy and unimpressive. Lauren didn’t even have chemistry with the people that portrayed her friends and family. The N word lost its ability at any humor because it was used so much within the first 20 minutes, it felt offensive. Eddie Murphy had on all the makeup Sephora offered to the makeup artist. I agree with you both this felt like a tv series. The montage of their relationship did not do justice to how these two people had chemistry with or without the added factor of race. You all were spot on with the fact that it was odd that Jonah and Lauren would seem oblivious to their parents reaction. The better story would be two people who met in college and hooked up on a dare.
Thank you!! The (over)use of the Nword really was a pain in my side thru this film.
This is it this is the comment well said 🙏🏾🔥🔥🙌🏽✍🏽
Not Sephora catching a stray 😂.
Spot on review.
This movie pissed me off! It was so ridiculous and not in a funny way. Aren’t we past this nonsense?!! Jonah hill came off to me so frumpy and unkempt. The couple has absolutely no chemistry. Even him and his best friend had no chemistry. Why did Lauren come out of hiatus for this?! I’m black and I’ve never had such awkward interactions with Jewish people. The worst part of the movie was when one of the brides friends said “who’s this white woman?” Like Wtf?!! How rude!!! Who’d really do that to someone’s face? You know what maybe I’m wrong, maybe America has become this place where we cannot interact normally with each other without this unreasonable awkwardness and bigotry. This movie couldn’t hold a candle to Guess Who with Zoe Saldana and Ashton Kutcher. Now that was a believable movie. This movie needs to unhappen!
Agreed. I don't know anyone amongst my family or friends that would have blurted that question.
Mo money...
“She wouldn’t pee on him if he was on fire”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
David looks like Jonah’s drinking buddy not his daddy.
he looks much better than Jonah.
It’s Kenya Barris, so, I’m not surprised it was middling. He has settled into the same story over and over
Like an interracial story telling Tyler perry 😂
Word! Someone needs to stop him. He’s poisoning the well.
@@joeym.4501 😂😂
I didn't know he was involved now I definitely won't watch.
@@nancydrew1882 Is that the same guy who wrote Blackish and Grownish?
In 2023 I'm annoyed that the role of Eddie & Nia's daughter was not given to an unambiguous Black woman. If we are to believe neither of them are a step parent then how would they have a daughter with that phenotype? The character played by Lauren London would be embraced and adored in ways that a dark skinned, kinky haired, fuller facial featured Black woman would not! Also Lauren and Jonah's characters were totally unbelievable as a romantic couple. Zero chemistry. Thanks for the review guys because I concur.
Agree!! It should've been given to a [dark skinned) Black woman who had chemistry with Jonah Hill and great comedic timing.
So true. I would have preferred to a darker skinned actress like a Teyonah Paris or Danielle Deadwyler. Ezra should have been played by someone like Zac Efron. Jonah and Laren had absolutely no chemistry whatsoever. Whenever they were physically together, Lauren had this look on her face like she was waiting for the Director to yell Cut.
I wanted to say it so bad!!!!!! BUT the whole topic on mixed race people and their experiences made me keep quiet
I want to like this comment 1,000 times
Word
..."none of this sh*t matters, you're gonna fight for what you love." 🔥thank you, Nick!!🔥#intersectionality
Even as a canadian black muslim gal, I'm kind of annoyed at how the intersection seems to fall flat and the characters are just one dimensional unreasonable caricatures. It has me questioning who these movies/shows are for if they can't even execute comedy about intersections and interracial relationships well to an audience of people who fall in those categories. This could have been an interesting and fun film, but it just seems archaic and pointless??? lol I will not be watching it but thanks for the giggles guys!
Agreed! Some of the jokes mentioned in this video sounded funny, but I'm sure the laughs are far and few between
Also too remember the family is a Nation of Islam which debates from traditional Muslim in various ways. If they were Sunni or Shia I feel like they really could have done some amazing conversations.
My thoughts exactly...He's NOI and conversed with Minister Farrakhan and received his kuhfi...smh..its a Jewish attack on NOI by all means...see Min. Farrakhan and Dr Wesley Muhammad recent statements on Jewish media mogul rants...
Joseph "I read somewhere that Jona Hill was upset when someone brought up his appearance, so I'm not gonna do that....he looks..."
Nick: silently saying, "Don't say it"
Joseph " I'm just gonna say it..." LOL 😂 Never change Joseph Never change!
I agree!!!!!!!!
czcams.com/video/15idSNOfBzA/video.html
The LOOK Nick gave the camera!
@@ZombieMizz 😂
Didn’t he lose weight? It’s not even the weight. I actually think people can be attractive with extra weight. It’s his whole attire, attitude and that hairstyle. Jesus Christ!
His mother looks his age and it's hard to buy David Duchovny is his father
I felt lost. I was like did they just break up at their wedding?
As a black man who drives a Prius and have had white people either frantically waving at me or literally opening my door, assuming that I'm there Uber driver, this movie's meet-cute really spoke to me. 😂
It’s cause of your gay Prius
its a real thing with Priuses!
haha has this actually happened?
I need to get myself a prius, the car practically pays for itself apparently
This movie is Islamophobic and deeply ignorant. Why why why does Kenya think he can write about a culture he knows absolutely nothing about? I’m disgusted
I feel like if I just rewatched "Guess Who" it would be the same as watching this movie
I said the same thing
Yes, but worse
Guess Who>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>You People
one thing to add about jonah hill's character, that is exactly how people with social anxiety act. we're super comfortable around people we know (eg friends and family) and find it difficult to communicate well with people we dont know (eg potential in-laws)
I think the movie was a bit heavy handed in some parts. I’m a black woman and I could see that Ezra’s mom was trying, she didn’t deserve all the backlash she got from Amira’s family. When her ring got stuck in the woman’s weave, it genuinely wasn’t her fault 😂😂😂😂. Ezra’s family ( cast members) seemed more relaxed in their roles.
The other incident wasn't her fault either. Amira's mom made her remove the candles. At least his family was trying, hers was just hateful and disrespectful towards everyone.
Why is the love interest biracial with two Black parent? They lost me right there. #Colourism. Kenya's humor is not funny to me. Not surprised this is a Netflix movie.
Exactly. They’ll find anyway not to put a dark skin black woman on the payroll. This casting made no sense
Oooo, I was hoping you would do a review for this because "dated" + "no chemistry between the leads" is EXACTLY the vibe I got from the trailer. I also wanted to know what Joseph would say about Jonah's hair 😂I haven't watched it yet but Jonah has a documentary where he talks with his therapist about his issues with social anxiety which is why he's not promoting his upcoming projects.
I love Black-ish but Kenya Barris bores me with the recycling of tired tropes when it comes to race; Tyler Perry without the popular drag queen and a great cast. As always, thank you so much for watching this and sharing your thoughts!!💕
Are we really supposed to buy into Jonah Hill being Julia Louis Dreyfuss's son? Because she looks younger than him in these stills.
They all look the same age, so I’m confused by this casting 😅
Is that a bad thing? All the main cast age slow. U tripping
David Douchaveny, Julia Dreyfus and Eddie Murphy are all 61-62 years old. Mia Long is early 50s. Lauren London and Jonah Hill are both older millennials. ????
@@malcorub they're saying they LOOK the same ages
They lookt he same age and are too old to have these problems as an independent straight couple..
19:51 I can feel Nick about to say, "Not one of those bitches" 😆
This movie was absolutely miserable. I was really looking forward to this movie, thinking had had to be hilarious... wrong.
Now I am a black woman, and laughed at the ring and wig part, after a big cringe, though it was the only part. Now, I can see were the mother was offensive. But I saw it as she was being unintentionally offensive for a good reason. That she was trying to get to know her Black daughter in-law, understand her... in just th3 wrong ways. But the black people were just A-holes for no reason other than he was Whyte. I also hated how suddenly she was pro-black and starting a fight with her fiancé because of her father, when that wasn't her normal temperament.
Yeah, throw 3/4s of the script away.
Ezra and Amira have no chemistry in this movie despite the actors' best efforts, but that doesn't mean "a woman like that" wouldn't get together with "a guy like that." Men need to understand that humor and genuineness absolutely works for us women. That being said, yeah, it's a movie about a nuanced topic told in a non-nuanced way.
I loved the movie, had me cracking up the whole time. I agree, I don’t think Jonah and Lauren had believable chemistry. And I didn’t like the way the black characters were written. It goes against our growth as a culture as if black people are still stuck in their ways and not willing to see or understand people from other cultures. Definitely gave me Guess Who vibes. And I wish the conversation about the Jewish and black experience was dove into a little more. All in all tho I thought the cast was great really liked the movie!
I agree. I hate how they wrote Nia Long's character!
The blacks in this movie were woke, notice that Ezrah's podcast partner basically said that whites and blacks can never get along, even though she and Ezrah get along. I wasn't offended, I thought it was realistic. The whites were ultra-liberal (except for the lesbian daughter who treated Amira like everyone else).
As a Muslim woman, I appreciated the fact that they stated that there are more than one type of Muslim. Movies always put us in one box or another. And the cultures of each other would have been funnier. I thought actually the movie took itself too series when it should have leaned more in the comedy. It had potential to be better, I liked it but could have loved it , with some changes.
Can I say that Young Miami did a great job with her small part. Who knew 🤷🏾♀️
Lol she did good.... a few more cameos and side characters and she's on her way fr
Joseph's eyes say everything he thinks.
Thank you for telling the truth. This movie sucked and was unrealistic.
Thanks for the review! I'm not in a rush to see this movie. I might watch it if I'm bored and can't find anything else to watch.
I agree. This movie was not funny at all. Jonah seemed very informed about the culture, why didn't he give Eddie Murphys character a run for his money. The scene in the barbershop would have been very funny if Ezra had flipped the script on Eddie and convinced the Crips why he was keeping the hoody on and earned their respect.
Thanks. They dropped the ball with this movie. It would have been a more interesting movie if Ezra was more informed about black culture than Eddie Murphy was and he used his podcast to expose him for being a hypocritical Muslim who still eats pork, and uses his religious belief to appear pro black.
Couldn’t finish it
HATED IT!!
“None of this shit matters and you’re going to fight for what you love.” Preach! ❤
The fifth time Julia Louis-Dreyfus's character went on an improv-style awkward ramble I literally said out loud, "Oh my god, movie, please stop!" There were so many moments that this film could have elevated itself, and it refused every opportunity.
And thank you for mentioning the ending. The whole message of the movie (I think) that the younger generation has its own path to forge unburdened by the baggage of the previous generation is completely abandoned by the notion that, yeah, the parents are now OK with the marriage, but they still dictate the terms of when and how that wedding takes place.
I like Julia Louis Dreyfus but when she popped up in the trailer, I didn't laugh once! Most of the jokes felt so awkward!
I agree. I think some of the jokes rants went on too long. Would have been awkward in person in real life, making the audience feel the awkwardness is something lol
@@pearce123456789 Most of the jokes felt like race rants. I tapped out when they compared the Holocaust to slavery.
@wiinterflowers4277 I stuck with with the hope the other comedians would deliver. Was really a task. Those long drawn out "jokes" were tough.
@@pearce123456789 I blame the writer, not the actors. Well some blame is placed on Jonah Hill.
You guys articulated everything I was thinking in my subconscious when I watched this. Great review guys.
netflix and amazon love wasting money for celebs who can't get better movies deals. These are movies you would see in Blockbusters and keep walking pass😂😂 This movie does sound dated. Thank you Joseph and Nick🙏🙏💖💖
So, Guess Who with Ashton Kutcher and Zoe Saldana?
That movie was horrible!
I like Joseph. He's funny even without trying. Nick is like the somewhat serious straight man. Correcting Joseph and explaining certain scenes to him. Joseph's semi-rolling of the eyes and his facial expressions makes this more fun to watch. Do you guys get to a point where you are mad at each other off camera? Are you planning on reviewing older films? You mentioned Seconds, which I loved. Thanks guys.
We cover "older" films on our podcast.
Joseph is hilarious 😂. I'm addicted to their reviews. I consider them the modern day Siskel and Ebert.
lol you called Nick straight.
what a waste of nia and eddie. the lack of chemistry btw jonah and lauren was distracting.
the movie tried tho. e for effort.
I liked this a little more because I can relate sadly to Ezra and his mom. My sister’s boyfriend is a black guy and my mom acts like Julia Louis-Dreyfus. When we had a surprise birthday party for her back at my moms house her boyfriend and his mom came and at one point I’m in the backyard and get a text from my sister “please come inside and help, mom is being too woke” when I come in my sister is at the table with my mom, Quinnton her boyfriend and his mom Carol and I hear my mom “cops, Black Lives Matter, black men can be good fathers too……”. I couldn’t text my sister fast enough to watch this movie and laugh at Dreyfus being just like our mom. I love my mom but she is always the white lady trying too hard to be nice about these things😂. I’m gay and she always have some work pro gay stuff to say around me and my friends even thought the the topic was “how about this weather?” 😅
I'm bald and I'm obsessed with hair, especially dreadlocks, corncrows, braids, etc. Is it racist to ask my coworkers about it? I'm not woke, and do my utmost to treat everyone the same, but sometimes curiosity gets to me. I suppose there's no harm in asking questions.
I said all the exact same things you guys said....like word for word. An old, dated, 90's sitcom episode. These ppl don't make sense in their situations...like what's going on? Thank you for saying what we were all thinking
It’s a , Guess who’s coming to dinner 2023...is what I thought this was...
Your video's being a smile to my face! Thank you!!
The sudden forced Muslim was so weird to me. How cold they are is so wrong.
One hour in and I have not laughed not 1 time! The only entertaining scenes are when Julia Louis Dreyfus is on camera. Jonah Hill plays the same necrotic, insecure, nervous-talking white boy in every movie
His voice is grating. The 1 thing I will say about the movie, it makes a point of showing how he makes her laugh and there's something to be said about that, especially when we get older. A man that can make you laugh and feel safe. I kind of see how she would fall for him. But that's it. I'm going to force myself to watch the last hour hoping it gets better. This movie gives us exactly what I expected, absolutely nothing! Eddie Murphy has not been funny in a long time.
I’ve felt for a long time that Kenya barris is obsessed with interracial dating and bi-racial ppl. He doesn’t really like black people and that’s probably why Eddie and Nia- (two great actors) characters weren’t given range in the film
I'm white with a black wife and 4 biracial children. I couldn't make it past the first 15 minutes of this movie. Felt like propaganda
Those t-shirts you're wearing are awesome!
Awful movie and Jonah and Lauren have zero chemistry
I feared it would be something like that. And it's 2 hours (well 1h58m).
Only found your channel last night and as I was watching today, was wondering what your perspective would be. I think it could have has so much potential.
I’m not a fan of Jonah Hill so I had no intentions in seeing this movie. I just enjoy watching you guys and your honest reviews.
That convo that she has with JLD... wish I had said that to my MIL years ago. 20 years later...here we are. I related to A LOT of this film but again I was married in 2004 when you all said this was more applicable. 😊
Joseph, your haircut and beard trim looks🔥🔥🔥🔥😉🌈
Netflix been coming out with a lot of duds. I hope this one is a good one.
I agree. All the Black characters except the little brother seemed like a***holes to me. Yeah I think focusing on the Jewish family mightve been more interesting. It was pretty funny in parts but the bad stuff really out weighs it for me.
This movie needed some additional work. The cast and storyline were a little off, even though they tried. You would think that with all those stars the movie would be great. Netflix needs to demand better. I’ll give it 2.5/5.
I was hoping this would be like the Eddie Murphy Christmas skit with Maya Rudolph from a couple years ago. It was really funny as they had a daughter engaged to a white guy… just hilarious. This doesn’t seem to be that…
The Tron wedding theme made me laugh pretty hard. I don't understand why comedies have to be so corny at the end. Seems like a lot of comedies do that though.
I did laugh at “friendship with a Parisian setting.”
The underuse of Nia Long was criminal, at least David Duchovny has his moment singing Ordinary People.
I shut it off after 15 minutes.
I
"I have a lot of notes..."
"Well, let get those."
You guys are great. Perfect for each other.
I thought the scene where the kufi given to Eddie murphy's character by Louis Farrakhan is accidentally set on fire was symbolic. These are Jewish people so they wanted to show their disdain for him in the guise of comedy. I didn't care for that because he is held in high regard in the black community.
That entire movie made fun of black people, but look who's the director.
Kenya Barris productions feel like they could be set in the 70s. The only thing they are missing is a jayjay from Good Times cameo.
Hearing you guys talk about this one, reminds me of Guess Who. Fun fact I watched Guess Who in theaters alone as a 12-year-old boy. Also did the same for Fat Albert, good times.
A movie about race that depends on sitcom humor, and tired stereotypes is almost inexcusable in 2023.
There is still too much left to be said about race and equality in America. The studio could have covered some new territory, and furthered the conversation about racial expectations, misunderstandings, and prejudice in different situations than just interracial dating. IT'S BEEN DONE!
For example, my family's story would have been interesting to explore. We first had four white kids the "regular" way. Then we adopted a 12 year old Hispanic son, and, finally a 10 year old black daughter. (Add to that plot, one of my bio kids came-out to us during middle school!)
So, I know there are great stories out there about race that would make much better movies, and, could possibly help people recognize their own racial blind spots.
Too bad this movie just went for cheap laughs rather than going a little deeper and actually accomplishing something.
This movie will be easy to forget.
The movie is so over the top when dealing with the race relations between the two families. I know two different people who are in interracial relationships and they tell me their families get along great. This movie represents like the worst case scenario and not the norm. This isn't how the vast majority of people act toward each other in this day and age. Just really disliked the movie
I am a woman of color married to a white max and I wish movies would feature more situations like mine but this doesn’t sound like it’s good. I do like how Joseph always expect more from black cinema. I appreciate that. ❤
At least the music was good. I felt like I just came back from the 80s. Dude was shady, clichéd and one liners. Not what I was hoping for.
Edit: spot on review
I couldn’t agree more with every comment you made! This is my first video of yours that I’ve seen, but it won’t be the last!
It was literally no chemistry between them I was like this is hella forced I stopped watching.
Movie was meh. I rather watch a movie completely revolving around jonah's family.
The movie was cute but I agree. It definitely seemed dated and I didn’t see the chemistry between the two.
I felt like I was the only one that didn't find the trailer or the story funny at all. I'm over the cliché "we're going to point out how our races are so different" trope. It reminded me of the SATC reboot, when they included the black character, Miranda was super awkward as if she's never been around another black person before.
And Jonah Hill aged horribly. I thought they used CGI on him at first. I hope he's ok
You’re not the only one. 🙋🏽♀️
I gave it an average rating. I think around 6 out of 10.
Though a sort of separate conversation, I’m waiting for a representation of Jews that aren’t rich. Like, sorry to burst a stereotypical bubble, but the average American Jew didn’t come from the upper west side (Marvelous Mrs Maisel) or West LA (this movie). I would love to someday see an interracial “average American” couple. 🤷🏻♀️ bring in all the family history, generational traumas, bringing up the stereotypes and why they’re wrong… I don’t know. Just mho.
As an American Jew, agreed. Most of us are struggling to get by just as much as anyone else. I feel the same way about gay men representation; it's always upper class socialite types in WeHo or Provincetown or NYC.
I don’t need to see the film, and I already know London and Hill have no chemistry 😅
For me it was crazy because Lauren London is biracial and her father is Jewish
Well pointed. It is dated. Many things need resolution - much work remains undone - but then suggesting some "edgy-ness" to the subject is a shrug-worthy.
There is that BBC show "MI-5" from early 2000s with David Oyelowo playing one of the agent. What always surprised me how there is zero "look Ma - he Black" factor in that show. It is really as color blind as it gets. They give him boring British hobby of reading on cricket history ;-) Americans would not stop themselves from giving him some stereotypical blackness - a good basketball player or good dancer or snappy dresser.
Joseph, I agree with Johanny below, please never change!! That goes for you too Nick!!!
Everything always changes. It's a law of the universe you inhabit, welcome to Life young one.
This is the best movie review I have seen so far. Thoughtfully done
Jonah’s look has been the blonde slicked hair for years now and I never understood it. He looks like he could be an extra in Entourage at its peak. Very sleazy LA agent. So sorry, Jonah. LOL
yes! 😂 accurate. they needed to help him look better for this movie. because seeing him with Lauren London was a stretch.
O fkn chemistry i love yall
Thanks!
Thank you!
Jonah is already looking bad and then they have his hair so greasy. 🤢
I LOVE Eddie Murphy and I have forgiven him for all his bad movie decisions. Lol lol BUT we've seen this movie a few times already just with different actors. Enough already. Haven't watched this yet... maybe on a lazy Sunday I'll give it a whirl 🙄
Kenya is like Tyler Perry they make the same movies over and over and over. Different people same storyline. People just going to watch it because of the popular cast. I got to the point now where I can tell a Jordan peel movie, a Tyler Perry movie and a Kenya movie because none of them never step outside the box with their movies
Yes! This is it! Kenya Barris can be so cringe. He does that with all his shows. It’s like he lives on another planet where white people are always the enemy. He takes every racial stereotype and amps it up to infinity. It’s disgusting and a total turnoff. He tends to ruin his his shows which are otherwise great concepts.
I feel the same way. Mr. Barris needs to broaden his creative horizon. There are so many stories to be told that aren't race based.
I like Joseph's idea of focusing on the Jewish family more and their struggle with the newly integrated members of the family.
I liked it for what the movie was, funny, cute at times, happy ending, a mindless rom com
Can you review Three Ways?
This movie was trying too hard to be relevant and would have been funny in 1996. Speaking of 1996, 'Birdcage' with Robin Williams and Nathan Lane, directed by the great Mike Nichols covers similar terrain and is 10X more funny:)
It felt dated when I was watching the trailer.
So good girls aren’t smart or pretty ? Ok !
What you could have said was “ she doesn’t seem to fit into stereotypes” .
I think it was supposed to be like Guess Who
Jonah character looks like he belongs in the movie blow with Johnnie Depp.
