One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

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

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I absolutely loved this movie. I thought it was brilliant. And it delivers the one thing you would expect from a comedy: laughs. Time and time again.The cast was hilarious. Kutcher, Mac and Saldana had so much chemistry and it made the film work so splendidly. I didn't find anything racist about the movie as well, just some great jokes. And it showed that white people aren't the only racists. And the film wasn't a classical corny romantic comedy, it has a deeper meaning and message in it.I would recommend this movie to anyone. It makes you think about different problems starting with that love isn't always perfect, that people are different and everyone has to deal with problems concerning racism and family. I really enjoyed Guess Who. A magnificent film.

Of course this movie is mostly being blasted because it was released so shortly after the success of "Meet the Parents" and "Meet the Fockers", which uses the exact some concept. Only difference with this movie is that it's about an interracial couple. But also when you look beyond this and ignore the fact that this movie is basically the interracial version of "Meet the Parents", it just isn't a great movie because for a comedy its surely lacking. Basically Bernie Mac was the only reason that I still found this movie to be an enjoyable one to watch. Perhaps biggest problem is that the movie is too predictable. No not just with its story, I mean basically everyone already knows in advance how this movie is going to end but also comical wise the movie is too predictable. They surely didn't came up with a whole lot of original moments and because everything happens in such a predictable manner, the comedy also just doesn't always work out.The movie could had been a better one, had it handled its subject of an interracial relationship better. That way the movie could perhaps had send out a message but it doesn't really does so now. The movie doesn't take away any stereotypes, instead it only sort of confirms them and it happily does so, in order to provide the movie with racial-typed humor. Somehow I have the feeling that it perhaps could had worked out better had the guy been black and the girl white and so her parents, who they are visiting, as was the case in the original movie this movie got based on; "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner", staring Spencer Tracy, Sidney Poitier and Katharine Hepburn, which was also a drama rather than a comedy. Even though I haven't seen that movie yet I still am sure of it that that movie its theme worked out better, perhaps also because it was a '60's movie when interracial relationships obviously were still a bigger issue. Seriously, when I take a black girl or Asian or whatever home one of these my parents surely won't make a big issue out of it at all. So isn't this a movie a bit too outdated already with its theme and only relevant had it been made about 40 years ago? That is if the film-makers intentions were to take away the stereotypes and reluctances and intolerability of people towards interracial relationship but I have the idea that the film-makers simply dropped this idea and intentions and went for a simple full-blood comedy instead. I haven't seen Bernie Mac in an awful lot of movies, also since he started out pretty late white his acting career but so far I have always liked him in his comical roles. He plays it serious and sarcastic rather than over-the-top funny which makes him such a great and hilarious actor in my opinion. It's also mostly his movie in my opinion and Asthon Kutcher gets pushed more to the background by him, even though Ashton Kutcher surely ain't a bad actor either, no matter what other people always say about him.A comedy you can surely do without but when you decide to watch it you'll still be most likely lightly entertained by it.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

Guess Who is a funny comedy that Ashton Kutcher and Bernie Mac are hilarious in separately and as a team. The movie is about a guy who has to face mans worst dream, meeting his fionseys parents and to make matters worse they are black and he is white. This movie is very light hearted and is done really well with Ashton Kutchers character being the silly one and Bernie Mac being the serious one. This movie is good for many reasons 1. It has all the laughs you could want from a movie like this, 2. It does the black/white thing in a responsible way and do not get too racist or stuff like that, 3. It is very understandable and does not lose meaning. Overall I think this movie is very underrated and a must see for movie Goa's every where. So I rate it 84%.

First of all, I am not a fan of Bernie Mack and certainly not of Ashton Kutcher, but I liked this movie.While the movie is certainly predictable, it has its humorous moments. Although Bernie Mack plays a little overly protective father, he does not over play it to the point that it is just a ridiculous caricature. Ashton Kuetcher has a good haircut and looks like a nice clean cut male, not the long haired goof-ball we usually see.My favorite scene was the one at the dinner table. Not to give anything away, there were racist comments and racist jokes, but in good taste and fun. That scene shows that both sides can be racist in their own rights but still enjoy a good joke when it is truly funny.While not the masterpiece that "Look Who's Coming to Dinner" was, it was a whole lot more fun to watch.This is you typical formula romantic comedy, but it is heavier on comedy than romance.
