Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins


Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins

Who's in it: Martin Lawrence, James Earl Jones, Joy Bryant, Cedric the Entertainer, Nicole Ari Parker, Mo'Nique

What's it about: RJ(Lawrence) is a successful show host, but his father(Jones) never approved. He's now engaged to past 'Survivor' champion Bianca(Bryant) and he's coming home for a family reunion. His 'brother', Clyde(Cedric), has always been ahead of him for everything and his sister, Betty(Mo'Nique), never lets him forget it. Clyde stole the love of his life, Lucinda, and now they're back and he's still in love. Now he's trying to decide between his fiance and his high school sweetheart.

What I Think: This movie was very funny. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Lawrence was hilarious and I enjoyed every joke he was associated with. Parker was beautiful and Jones still has his charm. The ending was classic and I will never forget the lesson that it taught me. All in all, not what I would say a family movie, but a very good movie to watch with friends.

College Roadtrip


College Roadtip

Who's in it: Raven Symone, Martin Lawrence

What's it about: Melanie(Raven) has always been a daddy's girl with great grades. She's graduated from high school and got accepted to her dream college, Georgetown. She also got accepted to her dads(Lawrence) choice college, Northwestern. The only problem is that his college is close to home, while hers is far away. After she's accepted to Georgetown, she has to go to an interview. She and her dad are off on a roadtrip to the interview and run into many obstacles.

What I Think: This movie was fairly good. It's what you would expect for a Disney family movie. I was expecting a little bit more fighting, but I guess it was fine the way that it was. Not a fan of Raven-Symone, and I still am not. Lawrence was very funny though. He made alot of funny faces and it was great seeing him as an overprotective father. He's quite the comedian\.
