BAPS

Two tacky homegirls move to L.A. to become dancers; instead they scam a dying millionaire but learn to become (BAPS) Black American Princesses. What was Robert Townsend thinking? A terribly unfunny insulting film that embarrasses Landau and Berry, who have both been better. I hope their salaries for this film were astronomical because no self-respecting actor in their right mind would sign on for this film. There are poor and hungry people on our streets, yet somehow a movie like BAPS gets made with a budget of probably several million dollars. Something is wrong with this picture. Genre: Comedy / Romance

Film is rated:  PG-13 for brief strong language.
