Reviews for Marci X
Top Critic Marci X is the kind of terrible movie I'm almost glad I've seen, because this decade probably won't bring a worse movie than this.

It's no masterpiece, but I found it consistently good-hearted and sometimes hilarious, and the sparse crowd I saw it with was laughing as much as I was, especially at the outrageous rap numbers.

Como algum estúdio pôde aprovar este roteiro? Como os atores aceitaram participar do projeto? Como este conseguiu ser lançado? Como Benjamin pode ser chamado de ‘cineasta’?

Suggests a sort of Judeo-Nubian alliance that would supposedly make uptight WASP's quake with fear. I think.

A more blithe display of astonishingly clueless anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia, and sheer bad taste has not been seen since probably ever.

The fatal flaw of Marci X is its complete and total disconnect from the contemporary zeitgeist of hip-hop culture in American society.

If the context of Marci X were more realistic, a lot of these gags would soar. But the context is drag-show dinner theater.

J.A.P. meets rap, but it's not a marriage made in heaven -- (very) far from it, in fact.

A brief bit about a celibate boy band scores big; the rest is just noise.

Given the songs were written by South Park songwriter Marc Shaiman, the lyrics should be more caustic. Like that show, the film is equally irreverent but nowhere near as intelligent or subversive.
