Big Mommas House w/ Jacquis Neal

Actor, comedian, and host of Crowd Control on Dropout, Jacquis Neal joins me to defend the year 2000 Martin Lawrence vehicle, Big Momma's House. We discuss why this broad comedy is vastly underappreciated and how it brilliantly parodies the classic matriarch character originating from the drama Soul Food. We dive into Martin Lawrence's legendary, trailblazing run in the 90s and 2000s, why critics were entirely wrong to slap this film with a 31% on Rotten Tomatoes, and why the suspension of disbelief required for Big Momma's House makes it a much better watch than White Chicks. We also touch upon the brilliance of the first Bad Boys film and how Will Smith originally landed the role over Eddie Murphy. Jacquis also talks about the new season of his consensual crowd-work show on Dropout, Crowd Control, and how he pushed the wardrobe budget to pay homage to classic stand-up looks from Eddie Murphy, Katt Williams, and Martin Lawrence. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for:Episodes 24 hours earlyAd FreeBonus ContentExclusive Polls and Updatespatreon.com/everyonesacriticpod Support the show
