Christian Science Monitor
The comedy is often crass and crude, but it makes telling points about how much of "race" is more about the words and gestures we use than the actual colors of our skins. - 63
USA Today
Think of a B-grade "Bulworth" with lesser talents than A-listers Warren Beatty and Halle Berry. - 63
Chicago Sun-Times
Flashes of inspiration illuminate stretches of routine sitcom material; it's the kind of movie where the audience laughs loudly and then falls silent for the next five minutes. - 50
Village Voice
Most Wanted isn't aiming for social commentary, but it isn't too difficult to enjoy its good-natured humor. - 50
New York Daily News
An unerring sign of the awfulness of Malibu's Most Wanted is a series of the least funny outtakes ever appended to a movie's closing credits. - 50
Variety
Ultimately implodes, letting down the 'hood, hip-hoppers and Jamie Kennedy fans looking forward to his first major starring role. - 50
Los Angeles Times
After an hour, or two-thirds of the film, they run out of gas. This is the kind of material that's easier to set up than it is to bring together in a satisfying fashion. - 50
Philadelphia Inquirer
Think Jerry Lewis doing Eminem, or maybe it's Eminem doing Jerry Lewis (or maybe it's Pauly Shore doing Vanilla Ice), and you've got B-Rad.
