A graceless and gratingly unfunny comedy that brings out the worst in just about everybody involved.

Reviews for Woo
Equally unengaging are hero Tim (Davidson), the wimpish buppie who loves her, and his male buddies, who provide the requisite quota of chauvinism.
After a while, it all gets a bit repetitive, which is remarkable, given how short the film is.
For all the generic plot gyrations, Pinkett Smith and Davidson turn in poised, resourceful performances.
Jada Pinkett Smith is the only real reason to catch this banjy mess, but even that's stretching it.
Boring, uninteresting and pointless, the film wastes both its talent and your time.
Woo may be as skimpy as a sequined halter top, but it's undeniably appealing nonetheless.
