Keenan Ivory Wayans should hold his head up high and be proud for writing and directing and starring in A Low Down Dirty Shame. He shouldn't feel dirty at all. I feel dirty with all these closeup shots of Jada's and Salli's juicy backsides. I'm not complaining. I'm doing the opposite. Jada is dead-seriously gorgeous. I love the way she's acting all ghetto. I wish Jada would just be like that in real life. I would find it appealing, and I would probably love her more than I already do now. That's all a fantasy. Jada is so underrated. She is so good. She is so very sexy. Salli Richardson too. Keenan is the sexiest Wayans brother. Him or Marlon. Or Shawn. Or Damon. I didn't think about Will Smith once.

This movie does what it set out to do,make the the people watching this movie laugh. A Low Down Dirty Shame characters make this an enjoyable movie. Jada Pinkett is perfectly cast as Peaches Shame's (Wayans' character) Assistant.She's funny and likable in this role the action does not come with overly done, loud, explosive, costly Hollywood production. what it does come with is humor and that's why this movie is solid..When I first saw this movie I couldn't stop laughing. When Peaches has the scene with the Geri-Curled,Gold Toothed Mailman. The scene when Shane wakes up next to Peaches'roommate I'm still waiting for Shame 2. Heck,I have seen worst movies make a sequel. My suggestion to anyone who is interested in seeing this movie is go into it with an open mind and you will love it

I found this movie to be quite over the top. Sure, the mass destruction is reminiscent of the Blues Brothers. Sure, the action and hype is quite over-rated. That's what makes Keenan Ivory Wayans the talent that he is. I find that I like to watch this movie when I am down in the dumps and in need of a distraction.Jada Pinkett (later Smith) shines in this role. I have a sneaking suspicion that she's quite a lot like this character in real life. She made this movie, and I think it launched her for future good acting roles. Girlfriend doesn't ride Will's coatails, she's established on her own in my book.The characters in the movie needed to be taken at face value, that was all they were worth. If you took an instant dislike to any of them, you were supposed to. The plot is a no brainer, and the jokes were quite funny even if you view this movie excessively. You WILL catch yourself wandering around saying lines from the movie....a true mark of a decent film. I recommend it for a burst of energy on an otherwise boring weeknight. Happy viewing.

The movie was not the greatest, I agree, but it was entertaining. It had a lot of action and humor. The acting, though not superb, was in general, decent. As long as I'm entertained, can laugh, cry or be scared out of my wits by a performance, then I recommended the movie. I am a firm believer that if a person doesn't like what he/she are watching, they can leave or turn the dial.
