Summary: Ebony and Ivory
Comment: Simon Green and Theresa Jones are a normal couple. They are going home to visit her parents and her father Percy (played by the late great Bernie Mac) does not like the fact that his daughter is dating a white man.
Percy soon finds himself investigating Simon and finds out that Simon had recently lost his job, which Simon had neglected to tell Theresa. Percy also has stress because the reason why Theresa came home was because Percy and his wife are renewing their vows and he is having a hard time with his vows.
Do Percy and Simon work out their differences? Watch Guess who

Summary: Destined to become a "classic, possibly the defining, Bernie Mac movie."
Comment: Sweet movie. It helped me get through a bad time when my dad was in the hospital. I had to come home to an empty house - sad and worried - and mostly, so very alone. It was at night and those feelings are amplified at nighttime. A friend had sent me "Guess Who" and due to the negative reviews it received, I had thought I would not like it, so I had postponed watching it. I put it in the dvd player earlier that day and as I stood in the house trying to decided what to do - whether to go to a motel to spend the night or not - I remembered that I had put "Guess Who" in the dvd player earilier that day and had liked the voices of the lead characters for the few minutes it played in the background. I pressed "Play" and the voices of this loving family, though in conflict through much of the movie, calmed me enough for me to know that I could spend the night at home by myself.

Summary: Embracing the Differences in Us All
Comment: Really enjoyed the movie. Ashton Kutcher was charming as always. Bernie Mac did a real good job. Sweet updated story about acceptance, embracing the differences in each other and committed love. Definitely not a 5 star movie but worth watching.

Summary: Satisfied
Comment: I've purchased mostly books from Amazon but I never hesitated in purchasing this movie because I am really happy w/Amazon. I've enjoyed this movie.

Summary: Dreadful - Destined for the Trash Bin
Comment: Couldn't get past twenty minutes. This is a humorless, predictable poor excuse of a movie. For a comedy, this doesn't have much of a comedic set up either. Plus - Ashton Kuchner hasn't appeared in a movie I liked yet. And did anyone notice a total lack of chemistry between the actors? This will have you rushing to watch Meet the Parents again. (PS I did not buy this film - it was given to me by someone who worked on it.)

Editorial Reviews:

When Theresa (Zoe Saldana) brings fiance Simon Green (Ashton Kutcher) home for her parents' 25th wedding anniversary, she's neglected to mention one tiny detail - he's white. Determined to break his daughter's engagement, Percy Jones (Bernie Mac) does everything he can to make Simon feel "apart" of the family, from running his credit report to locking him in the basement at night. But when Percy gleefully exposes Simon's most embarrassing secret, it leads to an outrageous series of comic complications that only goes to prove that with a dad like Percy Jones, father doesn't always know best.
