Review of The Players Club (1998) by Christopher S — 12 Jul 2012

While this film was better than Showgirls, it was not very good at all. Matter of fact, anything is better than Showgirls so that was a terrible analogy. I love LisaRaye. She is very beautiful...but she cannot act her way out of a paper bag.

I thought Ice Cube could have done more with Bernie Mac's character Dollar Bill but he didn't get enough screen time for my liking. This film had some serious issues, including not knowing if it was a hood movie or if it was a straight comedy.

AJ Johnson's Little Man was funny but give me a break. Jamie Foxx's Blue was OK but he wasn't given enough time for my liking as well. Ice Cube might be a legendary rapper and a solid actor, but he can't direct a film to save his life.

Definitely not worth seeing. Striptease might have been better.
