Who's the man

It is a funny movie, but I think there is way too much cursing, it takes away from the movie....

Who's the Man

It's a comedy who done it, featuring alot of the old school hip-hop artists. After seeing the movie on BET recently it brought back all of the good memories relating to the actors and the musicians and I went searching to buy a copy.

If you want a laugh
Added 5/29/2006

I won't claim to know all of the rappers that are contained in the movie but it is a good laugh much as "Car 54 where are you?" with Rosi O is. Plus, Dennis Leary is great and "Duff" from MTV (VJ around 1990-91) also makes a cameo.....very cute! I would recommend this movie for anyone that was a young adult around 1993 or to someone who wants a good laugh.

Fun movie to watch!
Added 9/10/2005

I guess this was one of the earliest examples of a hip-hop movie with a load of hip-hop artist cameos. What really completes the movie is the performance by Dennis Leary. He is SOO funny as a police sargeant who has to deal with the 2 main characters, played by Ed Lover and Dr. Dre. The movie is somewhat dated but it's a fun experience to watch, as the two newest members of the NYPD bumble their way through a crime investigation they only seem privy to. It all works out in the end, and the day is saved. This was also a strong influnce on movies such as the Barbershop movies and the Friday series.
