Self hate at it's finest

This was a horrible movie. Do not waste your time. The stereotypes were played out (even at that time) and you can see the writers have real issues with Black women of a darker hue. To think that this was passed off as comedy when it's really tragedy is the most comical part of it. I can see why it was a straight to DVD movie...

Every Movie Begins with a 10/10 Rating

I'm sure you have all had a teacher tell you that everyone begins the semester with an A. I have the same approach to movies. Even if I expect the movie to fail, it begins with a 10/10. If a full movie is analogous to a semester, then "Something Like a Business" dropped to an F after the first week. I watched thirty-eight minutes and that was thirty-five minutes too long.The premise was a dumb one, but not unsalvageable. Jojo (Kevin Hart) had to run his uncle's pimp business after he died. This could've been a riot. It certainly had the talent: Kevin Hart, Donnell Rawlings, Earthquake, Chris Spencer, Kym Whitley, Keith David, and David Alan Grier. Unfortunately, this was a hodgepodge of bad sketches all forced into an aimless movie.
