A Disgrace to "comedies" everywhere!!!!!!

This movie is a blatant disgrace to "comedies" (and I use that term lightly) everywhere. I was really stunned that people actually spent their money to see this bulls***!!! I am out of words, really, I don't know what to say because I was really appalled when I first saw it. I pray that no one would waste their money to rent and see this pile of dog s***!!! Please, if you are drunk when you're going to rent this, sober up!! If you're sober and you're going to rent this, sober up some more!! Martin Lawrence has really disappointed his fans by making this movie. I am truly disappointed!!!! Why could the film be like "Blue Streak" or "Bad Boys". Those were good movies! Very good Martin Lawrence flicks! Go rent those for a change!! I feel bad the producers and everyone to do with this film because they have made a hall-of-fame box-office flop!!! Extremely flat and disappointing, I can't use any other word but disappointing to express how I felt when I saw it. Rating-0.000000000000000000001/10!!!!! It sucks big time!!!!!
