- Reno: **The two shades of white!**
I’ve heard this film a long ago, but I never interested to watch it. We can’t avoid them, because when we look for a particular type of film for the occasion, they will pop-up and that is how I watched this now. I know it is a silly comedy, because in a real world this thing never happen. So knowing this is only for cinema, I prepared to enjoy whatever it offers. But I must say, even though my rating is not big, I kind of enjoyed it.
Nobody watches this without knowing its synopsis. So you will already know the fifty per cent of the story when you do. The rest is how it is developed; including how good the jokes are that comes with our watch. So much cliché, but entertaining with some good scenes and lines. The actors were excellent. The make-ups were not flawless, but worked okay, especially for a comedy. Because if there is an error, it will going to appeals from the comedic side.
So the overall film was better than what I presumed all these years. Glad I saw it, it’s nothing like those silly comedies I’ve seen. I’ve seen many imposter themes, but this is refreshing. All the above, this is a one off film, that’s the best thing about it. You know, sequels are what degrades the original film in most of the scenarios. Thanks for that, there’s no follow-up for this with a B movie cast and crew. This is a very much watchable film, not comedy riot, but fairly does its job.
_6/10_
- metalstorm.ee: Best movie ever. I mean does it get any better than this? Look I felt it was total metal. And I am a heavy metal maniac that gives everything 89/100. So there. Now there is comedy, there is suspense, there is disguise, there are trannys (or is it trannies here in Lithuania or whatever who knows?) and the movie addresses race relations which is very important because people pretend they are metal and still listen to f’n tarja, you know?
Bottom line: you will laugh,you will fall over, you will learn a lot and there are two hawt chicks. What else could you ask for? - tmdb51616167: “White Chicks” is a film that sparked mixed reactions due to its premise of black actors dressing up as white women, a concept that some found confusing and potentially controversial. Despite concerns about blackface and whiteface, the movie managed to navigate this sensitive territory at a time when such issues were not as heavily scrutinized, allowing it to avoid significant backlash.
The film’s creative humor and unique concept contributed to its enduring popularity, with audiences still enjoying and quoting it years after its release. While the portrayal of black men disguised as white women may seem unrealistic due to the obvious nature of their disguises, the movie’s over-the-top and comedic approach adds to its charm and entertainment value.
Ultimately, “White Chicks” is a lighthearted and cheesy comedy that aims to entertain rather than offend. Viewers are encouraged to approach the film with a sense of fun and appreciation for its playful and exaggerated take on gender and racial dynamics. By embracing the movie’s humor and acknowledging its intentions, audiences can enjoy a comedic ride that offers a break from the seriousness of everyday life.
