“You got me straight tripping boo.”
Steve Martin and Queen Latifah (and Eugene Levy) are an odd combo, but certainly a funny one! Coming out in 2003, “Bringing Down the House” was a movie about two different worlds coming together; probably not the first, and the result is some hilarity! Steve Martin plays a divorced lawyer trying to juggle his work-life and spending time with his two kids, and Queen Latifah is an escaped prisoner (as you probably already know). The plot of Martin’s lawyer trying to find love and unexpectedly running into Latifah’s straight-up “sister” personality results in a pretty hilarious film! Add in Eugene Levy’s “down white guy” persona, and you have the makings of some very funny moments! Some may argue that this film relies too much on typical plot lines, “been-there-done-that” routines, and stereotypes, but that’s not the case.This movie is a very funny and enjoyable romp. Meaningless fun. A laugh out loud. Don’t get me wrong, Steve Martin does shine especially in the scene where his daughter is relaying the events of a party that a dad just doesn’t want to hear. Following Latifa’s character’s advice to stay cool to gain her trust, he bites his tongue and instead of going mad, says, “That was some party”! Overall, ‘Bringing Down The House’ is funny and very entertaining film that you will not regret watching, although it could have been a little better with a better script, the acting was brilliant all round, and it does work pretty well, especially with Steve Martin as the main character who is very funny as usual.
