The Breaks

The Breaks

This movie is non stop funny. From Beginning to end it follows "derrik" as he stumbles his way across every "growing up/ life in the hood" movie satire. Think about the memorable scenes from boys in the hood, juice, and house party. Then add a "White Guy" into it. The best part is, that he is not pretending to be black, he is himself and that's where the comedy comes in. If you are a fan of BET's comic view, then you'll consider this an all-star cast, but if you are not familiar with BET then be prepared to be introduced to some of the funniest Unknowns in the world. Either way... you will watch this movie over and over again.

This was another funny movie when a "white" man tried to be black. It was so funny to see Mitch play someone else besides "Nick Freno." (Spoiler Ahead!) But the great actors and actresses did not get enough scenes in this movie! It was not good just seeing Loretta Devine, Darius Mc Cray, and Lamont Bentley just in the beginning and the end of the movie. And Yo Yo only was on the screen for less than a minute. And they did not show enough Paula Jai Parker! There were so many jokes in this movie that I couldn't keep up with them!

The Breaks Is A Hilarious Movie, I mean it depends on your sense of humor, the great thing is that it's funny for both blacks and whites. and it's not racist like some other movies...though at some times it is very stereotypical. Derrick Is the perfect character in the perfect setting. what more can i say i loved this movie if you haven't seen it, watch it. I showed it to 4 of my friends who had never even heard about it and they loved it. two thumbs up, five stars, should have won some kind of an award...joking but yes its worth watching i mean everything but the part in jail when Derrick "has to have some funk","we got to have some funk" that part was just like huh?

A bag full of dead kittens? Sorry, no... while this movie is pretty stupid,crass and vulgar its also funny as hell.....If your into that sort of thing. Which i am. The story is about 1 guys day and a chain of events that i found to be hysterical...crass,tasteless and vulgar yes...but hysterical none the less. If you like ironic humor, if you like what i call tough luck comedy's (like "theres something about Mary, or "the mask" or "innerspace")then you should like this movie. I think its good and that you should watch it if you can find it.....just so you know cable edits the movie for content so you might want to check out the real version of the movie from a video store

I saw this movie for the first time the other day had to get it imported from overseas since it is not here mitch mullany was great being a big fan of his this is a good movie laugh after laugh my parents were even laughing which is rare worth seeing

This is one of those rare movies that I can watch over and over again. Me and a guy at work got to talking about it and I basically was under the (of course) false pretense that I would never run across anyone that had ever seen it and liked it. From beginning to end this movie will have you cracking up, (spoiler) especially the part where Mitch (the main character, and a white guy) jumps a fence running from the cops, and ends up at a kill whitey meeting, only to yell "WHAT? YALL ARE HAVING A KILL WHITEY MEETING WITHOUT ME?" Heheh. Definitely one to watch! 9/10!

This movie was one of the funniest I have seen in awhile. It's hard to believe the whole movie took place in one day. With Derricks one-track mind, a simple task to get a carton of milk turns into a crazy ride into the hood. I could have died laughing. It was a great movie.

This is one of those movies that's funny but only if you don't put too much thought into it. "The Breaks" resembles so many other hood movies but it bears the strongest resemblance to "Friday". The plot revolves around Derrick (Mitch Mullany). His mama (Loretta Devine) is threatening to throw him out unless he returns that Sunday evening with a carton of milk. Sounds simple, right? Not when you're Derrick. He falls into all sorts of misadventures along the way and runs into all kinds of strange characters like an oiled up old man in a Speedo and a cowboy hat and two of the skankiest hookers you've ever seen. It's definitely worth a rental. I own a copy of it myself. :)
