Guess Who

Starts off really well, and seems clever, and is uncomfortable (although a little mean) enough to provide an effective emotional confrontation. But after the buildup, degenerates into the usual formulaic dramedy. Still, Kutcher is something besides his usual idiot slapstick self, which is quite an accomplishment.

Taking easy, cliche racial humor does not a good movie make. And as an added shocker, Bernie Mac plays the same character he does in every movie: bull-headed, ignorant, yet financially successful black man...what a great acting stretch.

Ashton Kutcher is no Sidney Poitier.

Watch the original good version, unless you just hate yourself.

"Forgoes its predecessor's moralizing in favor of Meet the Parents-style conflict." - Nick Schager

A pale shadow of the original. Shrek 2 was a better remake of Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. That being said, the movie is not bad. It had some rather funny and cute moments. I'm not a fan of Ashton Kutcher, but he is good n this movie. Bernie Mac is good as well. But the chemistry is just not there between them, and the story between the daughter and the mother is not nearly as strong as the original.

A terrible, usual comedy which started very nice. All the actors were good and the talking was witty. I also paid attention the connection with the original with Houghton and Poitier, and I liked the way they updated it. It was shame it ended up so lame. Kutcher was really different than he used to.

Watchable.

A black guy that likes nascar!!! HEELARIOUS -click-

im sorry Bernie Mac.

An incredibly tired premise coupled with it being unfunny

Guess Who wasn't bad. I'm glad that I watched it once. It is not something that I would watch over and over. I might even watch it again if it is on TV and I'm too lazy to go get the remote. Bernie Mac is always pretty good but he is tamed in this all ages movie. Ashton Kutcher is sweet and funny. I can understand why women find him appealing. Zoe Saldana is equally good in this movie. Kellee Stewart is funny as well. I have liked her since seeing her in the TBS original series.

Bernie Mac and Zoe Saldana are great. Ashton Kutcher, not so much.

Bernie Mac should be ashamed of himself. Who the heck talked him into doing this film. Although he gets a couple small laughs overall the film is a joke. Have not yet found an Ashton Kutcher movie that I have enjoyed, and that quest continues after this film. I feel like I have been Punk'd. The one thing I learned is that Bernie can dance a mean tango.

Les rebondissements romantiques sont très longs et il y avait énormément d'opportunités manquées avec le concept. J'ai vraiment un béguin pour ce beau-gosse d'Ashton Kutcher mais son jeu comique m'a semblé surfait, Bernie Mac est plutôt drôle en raciste, mais le scénario reste dans une retenue décevante. Au moins le film vous montre que les noirs aussi peuvent être de gros racistes stupides, et ce n'est pas tous les jours que le cinéma nous le rappelle.

Bernie Mack was good in this.

Bad movie on many levels

Why... have I seen this?

A good rom-com.

had some funny parts

It was alright the first time around, but I've never had any desire to watch it again.

I expected it to be a lot worse.

Felt like a 2nd rate Meet the Parents

This skips the original film's social drama in favor of a Meet the Parents & My Big Fat Greek Wedding style family comedy. It's more dated than the 1968 picture, especially with early generation cellphones and discussions on metrosexuals. Storytelling-wise it's less a movie and more a sitcom--to the point that it steals a joke from a much funnier episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air with the same premise. So, even with all the talent on display (like Zoe Saldana), you can avoid this one.

On the beaten path and it just beats it a bit more with small creases here and there. It washes over you like most of Hollywood comedies but you don't cringe much during watching it. And when she is not green as in GOTG Saldana is exceptionally beautiful.

ok comedy with good cast

The liveliness of Bernie Mac's bug-eyed irritability just doesn't work this time. I don't think he's meant to be a leading actor. As for Ashton Kutcher, well, stuff like this is made for him to star in. He fits the bill for sub-par charmer/unwanted son-in-law perfectly. Total crap!

Kind of a semi african american version of Meet the Parents that works surprisingly well. As previously stated it could be considered a bit of a rip off but it still creates laughs.

Moderately entertaining comedy that goes in all the expected directions.

Meh, not too bad, but really not that good either.

Okay movie to watch if there's nothing else on. Ashton Kutcher isn't a bad actor, and Bernie Mac has a couple of gold moments

to girly

Ashton Kutcher impressed me in this one. An interesting twist on its presesescor, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, this film has the ability to entertain if only for a few moments.

I liked the chemistry between Ashton Kutcher and Bernie Mac, who I'm really beginning to appreciate as an actor.

Not really funny. Just there

funny, but, a little ehhh

It was ok... most seemed like just another re-make. It always cracks me up when older movies with a political hot topic are remade.... and the roles reversed.

Yuck.

sweet film

It was surprisingly better than I thought, but still, you know, not really good.

It's better than I thought it would be: Bernie Mac really surprised me and is hilarious at every turn. Also, Ashton Kutcher: not irritating!

Not funny. Not ethical. Too much racism for todays economy.

I like Bernie Mac. I like Ashton Kutcher. I wanted to like this movie, but didn't quite manage to do so. It was an interesting take on 'reverse' racism, but I much preferred the 1967 version 'guess who's coming to dinner". The original with Sidney Poitier and Katherine Houghton as the 'in love' couple, and Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy as her parents.

It passes a very good message on the racial prejudice. A good comedy.

sweet

It's a shit version of Meet The Parents.

"I'm black, you're white, let's hate eachother and then grow to love." Blah, blah, blah.

an ok adaptation on guess who's coming to dinner. like the race reversal aspect, but not much else.
