The pleasingly contrasting comic styles of Queen Latifah and Steve Martin bring some energy to Bringing Down the House, a hopelessly formulaic comedy. Martin plays Peter, an uptight lawyer too obsessed with work to spend quality time with his kids. Into his life comes Queen Latifah as Charlene, an escaped convict who threatens to wreck his relationship with a wealthy but arch-conservative client (Joan Plowright, in high dudgeon) if Peter won't take up her case. Of course, Latifah's exuberant ways enchant his kids and bring out a looser, livelier side of Peter, all in a series of scenes so standard they hardly register. Thank goodness for Eugene Levy; as one of Peter's law partners with a taste for Charlene's bodacious brand of sexy, Levy's ingenious transformation from nebbish to loverman is the movie's secret weapon, stealthily planting comic explosions amidst the modest rice-krispie-crackle of the stale plot. --Bret Fetzer

 not recommend for childrens September 24, 2008
to many grown up actions in the movie and also too many colorful words but good for grown upd very funny all the way through the movie.gave 3 stars because of the colorful words that children could not here and some of the action that was and performed,we do not want to give children any ideals nor do we want to incourge them.
 hillarious June 17, 2008
Steve Martin & Queen Latifah, A Perfect Match. you wouldn't think that these 2 would make a team but they do. this movie is really good and really funny. it's a must see.
 Blaxplotation at its finest. May 25, 2008
The use of corny stereotypes and slang made as an african american man want to vommit.
 Predictable April 12, 2008
You see a lot of it coming, but the actors carry it off pretty well.
Very funny movie March 26, 2008
Bringing Down the House was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time when it was released back in 2003. Steve Martin and Dana Owens aka the Queen have great chemistry in the movie. Eugene Levy steals every scene he's in although I wish he would have had a bigger part. Some people have been complain that the film is racist but as a Black Amercian I didn't find it racist it all. The film pokes fun at old school views on racism. If you want a good fun film check this one out
