One of my all time favorites.

Best movie ever!

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It's interesting that the week after I saw a movie where male actors play female characters, I saw another movie where the same thing happens, only the male actors are playing male character pretending to be female. So the difference is that in the movie I saw earlier, the audience is supposed to believe the characters are female. In this one, only the other characters are supposed to believe this.I believe I have seen one, if not two, Big Momma movies. I was getting this mixed up with Madea, But I like both franchises.The disguises work really well. I would have believed these were women, more so than in the other movie. Malcolm makes a really good house mother as "she" deals with basically good but rebellious teens at a girls' arts school. Trent, his stepson, is not quite as convincing when he tries to talk, and his attraction to women is clear, and quite funny, at least to me. But one wonders in those situations how Trent can pass for a girl except for the fact that Charmaine COULD be a lesbian. And while no one mentions Charmaine's obvious appreciation for the female body, perhaps that would have worked.Wait until you see Big Momma get nekkid for art class. No, with her fat suit, she can't really do that, but she comes quite close. The fat suit is really convincing.Trent's reckless behavior in the face of danger is a constant presence. Malcolm's hardest job is keeping his stepson safe as Trent takes risks in order to be with the beautiful Haley. Actually, his hardest job may be fighting off the advances of the overweight security guard Kurtis Kool, who is strangely attracted to Big Momma. But Kurtis may be the key to finding the important flash drive that will solve the case for the FBI, and save him and his stepson from being killed by the bad guys. And even Charmaine has the opportunity to ask the right questions of the other girls.While the other movie is clearly superior, I thought this one was pretty good and quite entertaining. Martin Lawrence gives a good performance (I mean for this material) both as Malcolm and even better as Big Momma. No one will win Oscars here, but several of the performances are equally good or better.Jessica Lucas is quite appealing as an actress and a talented singer and pianist (I assume she is the one playing). Her romance with Trent is bumpy but somewhat appealing, and does have some positive results. Though I think you can predict what will happen later. The question is how.Faizon Love is very entertaining as well. I wasn't crazy about him but I believe he will appeal to others.Brandon Jackson is better when trying to be Charmaine than he is as Trent, but he is also a good rapper, if there is such a thing. Seriously, I do like old school in some cases. Speaking of which, there is a nice moment as Trent and Malcolm try to mix The Temptations with rap.Ken Jeong has a sort of humorous cameo as a mailman being attacked by Malcolm, who has no right to do what he did to a postal worker, even if he is FBI. I think both professions should have been shown more respect than this scene gave. But Malcolm was desperate to learn if his son got into Duke. If you can forget about the ethical issues, just enjoy it.I'm sorry to say that, while this movie has a Heather like the other movie did, the nasty anorexic ballet dancer only manages a few genuinely funny lines and turns out not to be nearly as bad as we first thought.Luckily for our heroes, the bad guys are bumbling idiots, but still quite dangerous.If you immediately hate the idea of watching either Big Momma or Madea, don't bother. But if you find this sort of thing appealing, this just may be for you.

The premise of the film starts off well. When Big Momma's step-son witnesses a mob hit, the latter and Big Momma are forced into disguise and go to an all-girls school where the stolen information has been hidden.Naturally, both guys get involved in the inter-personal relationships that exist among the girls. Of course, there is a love interest for the step-son.The picture is diminished by the silly antics of the two in their situations.Even the bad guys do a dance at the end of the film as the credits are rolling. I found that to be amusing.Otherwise, the film is fun but inane most of the time.

If you have seen the first two Big Momma movies than this movies follows the same line as those two movies however I did find this movie better than the second sequel but not as good as first.The one thing I have liked about these movies is big momma wisdom when she gives advice about problems the kids are having and if you don't like this you will probably hate this movie. Her sayings are what i have enjoyed the most about these movies.Martin Lawrence is fantastic as big momma you can still see that he enjoys playing this part and Brandon T wasn't bad but you have to give credit for trying. His character wasn't as great but you could predict what is going to happen to him.This movie is great family movie you can watch with your kids as no swearing and there are few amusing moments. I hope this is the last sequel in this franchise as it is good way end it with his son going to college.The Movie is 100 minutes which is not bad for a comedy if you just take it on face value you will like this movie but if you looking for something with a bit substance you should avoid this movie.I myself only watched this movie because i was bored.

FBI agent Malcolm Turner and his 17-year-old son, Trent, go undercover at an all-girls performing arts school after Trent witnesses a murder.Posing as Big Momma and Charmaine, they must find the murderer before he finds them....I wanted to see this, just to see how far Lawrence was scraping the barrel, i'm kind of sadistic like it. The ratings on here have been damning, and i needed to see what all the fuss was about.And while the film is probably one of the worst comedies i've seen, there's a lot here to keep the viewer occupied. It's a harmless film about nothing more than a copper in a fat suit and bringing his son along.The two leads are okay enough for this, and they have chemistry as they are both as annoying as each other.There are a few song and dance routines for no good reason other to attract the 'Glee' crowd, and soon enough people start getting feelings and bad eggs turn good.It is the pits, but you can't help but watch, like watching a tramp stumble across the road.Bet Lawrence cannot wait until bad boys 3 is green lit.
