Sistah's are doing it! |
This was funny and I really enjoyed it. My girl Mo'nique did it again with her comical self. Although I felt the skinny B* jokes were too many for my liking. It was the first time I had come across the other comics and they were equally impressive and very funny. I also found out from my girl that Sommore is a half sister of Nia Long! Interesting......
Anyway its a great DVD to watch with your girls on a night in. |

+1 for Mo'nique |
This is a tough film to review. It actually consists of four performances. Of the four, only Mo'nique's performance is a standout. Let's focus on her performance, since she really makes the show. Mo'nique takes the pain associated with being a Black woman of size, and transforms hert pain into cathartic beauty.
While she doesn't hate skinny women per se, she is free to speak her mind when women of size are slighted by skinny women, and really by all people in general. As a Black woman of size trying to maintain a relationship, she speaks honestly about some of the accommodations she is forced to make in order to keep her man.
Mo'nique is real, she is funny, and yes she is Beautiful.
---
Certainly, none of the other three performers are nearly as polished, and the package as a whole cannot stand up to the Kings of Comedy, Mo'nique's performance alone makes the film worth seeing.

Anyone who DOESN'T collapse in hysterics within minutes of this DVD's start has to either be male, skinny, misogynistic, or just plain all of the above.
I must have watched this on repeat at every opportunity for about a fortnight straight; I told EVERYONE i knew about it, and quite frankly, it kicks the 'Kings' back in the womb til they're born again - half as funny (as these ladies)!
I'll admit that Ms. Laura's wig joke is old and tired now, but the first time you see her do it will keep you stitches you still feel hours later.
My highlight I have to say though, is So'more and the 'Hula Hoop Theory' - I haven't seen ANYTHING to this day - 4 years later - that is as funny as that. |
