Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Guess Who (2005) starring Ashton Kutcher (That 70's Show, Butterfly Effect), an early-career Zoe Saldana (Guardians of the Galaxy, Avatar), and the late Bernie Mac (The Bernie Mac Show, Oceans Eleven). Is a fun rom-com about a loveable Kutcher trying to win over the over-bearing father-in-law, played by Mac. The movie has some shining and endearing moments that make you frustrated to love the characters of this movie.I feel that the homophobia displayed by Mac's character and the interracial prejudice in the NY/NJ setting may not hold up as well in 2018 and can make the viewer suspend disbelief (side note - these observations are coming from a point of privilege for this writer.. and maybe I exist in a fish-bowl, but it's hard to picture many people like this). Dated views aside, the laughs are light enough and ubiquitous throughout to prevent it from hurting the film too much.The plot is nothing revolutionary, but this is a fun movie. It's not receiving a higher score because it follows the rom-com formula too predictably and has some content that doesn't feel to hold up as well over time. However, that doesn't stop it from achieving its goal of making the audience laugh. Check it out, and let us know if you agree or not!Currently available to stream on Netflix (as of 6.11.2018)Guess Who - 6/10

I know the movie was supposed to be humorous, but i found it rude and extremely racist towards white people. If there were a comedy made like this but the roles were reversed where it was a black man dating a white woman and he was meeting her white family for the first time and if the white family were treated him the way they treated the white man in this movie it would be severely frowned upon and not humorous at all. Although, because its a white man going into a black family were supposed to look at it as humorous? I think its unfair and disrespectful. I'm sure it would be very much frowned upon but when its the way this movie is everyone expects you to laugh at the racism of white people. Its wrong, i do not like this movie at all.

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.

So no it's not the best movie in the world and personally I don't think they claimed it to be. I don't also think they were actually trying (though I could be wrong) to fully remake the original "Guess who's coming to dinner". I think it was more of an inspiration. I think if people are going to go off and compare a movie then they don't need to watch it. Typically a remake isn't going to be as good as the original in most peoples eyes. Like many I found the movie predictable (like most) but I personally did find it funny! Its one of those movies that is fun to sit and watch with your friends :). I think it does have a good message as well. It's like a lot of movies, all movies have stemmed from something. Most romantics, dramas, action movies are all about the same, and typically end the same but yet we still watch them! I would say if you are an easy going person, you have a good sense of humor, you are not looking for some award academy winning film, just some fun watching a movie then this is the flick for you. If you are looking for something that is just blow your socks off funny then you might want to look else where.
