38Here is a film so dreary and conventional that it took an act of the will to keep me in the theater.
-
38Some film premises are so outlandish, so thinly worked out and so deep-down ridiculous that they wind up sinking the show -- and White Chicks collapses under a real doozy.
-
38We're bombarded by witless racial clichés, stale sexism and homophobia and enthusiastic celebrations of extreme flatulence.
-
38Despite the attempts of the Academy Award-winning makeup artist behind Mrs. Doubtfire, these doubtful misfires can't pass as white or as chicks.
-
30The script, written by the three brothers, is ludicrous and incomprehensible, and plays cat-and-mouse games with what could have been some deeply funny comments on race, wealth, and, in one inspired changing-room scene, eating disorders.
-
30Credibility, of course, wouldn't matter if the gags were good enough, which they are not. The film quickly falls back on the gross-out jokes that have made recent American comedies such a challenge to the digestive tract.
-
30Laugh? I thought I'd never start.
-
25Like its eponymous subject, it succeeds only in being shallow and crass and not very much fun to be around.
-
25Worthless, tasteless and unfunny.
-
20It's such a dumb movie, it's hard to believe it wasn't an SNL sketch first.
-
20Instead of satire, we're treated to diarrhea jokes, dogs dangled from the windows of speeding SUVs and tasteless sobriquets bestowed upon anyone who looks vaguely ethnic.

Sam3Dreadful, disgusting, witless, and all in all unfunny.
