Ebony and Ivory
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
Destined to become a "classic, possibly the defining, Bernie Mac movie."
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.

Embracing the Differences in Us All
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.
Satisfied
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.
Dreadful - Destined for the Trash Bin
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.)
