Big Mommas : Like Father Like Son (2011) 5/10

Starring : Martin Lawrence, Brandon T Jackson, Jessica Lucas
Director : John Whitesell
Running Time : 103 mins

Malcolm Turner (Lawrence) once again dons the guise of Big Momma, this time bringing his stepson Trent (Jackson) along for the ride, when the two are forced to hide from a group of villains after witnessing a murder. The two take up residence in an all girl’s school for the performing arts where a flash drive that the gang are after has been hidden.

It’s a shame that Martin Lawrence seems to have allowed himself to be trapped by the curse of Big Momma. At least the reasons for Lawrence to dress as Big Momma made a little more sense than in the second film, but his disguise still could have been less flamboyant. The addition of Jackson does nothing to help this movie, and his rapping is abysmal and made me want to cry with shame that this movie ever got made.
