Finally, the movie that proves that Justice isn't always Poetic, Jungle Fever isn't always pretty, and Higher Learning can be a waste of time.

Storyline

When Ashtray moves to South Central L.A. to live with his father (who appears to be the same age he is) and grandmother (who likes to talk tough and smoke reefer), he falls in with his gang-banging cousin Loc Dog, who along with the requisite pistols and Uzi carries a thermo-nuclear warhead for self-defense. Will Ashtray be able to keep living the straight life?

Full of very obvious spoofery, and funnier in concept than in execution.

RTNew York TimesAug 30, 2004

A free-for-all comic spoof that brings the 'hood' genre of Hollywood films full circle.

If I see one more movie featuring that current favorite of obnoxious movie stereotypes -- the pair of abrasive Asian convenience store owners -- I'm not going to even going to think twice before getting up and leaving the theatre.

The Wayans boys are back! Their satires are silly and sometimes hilarious, but more importantly they enable us to laugh at ourselves.
