  • Critic Reviews of "BAPS (1997)"

    Chicago Reader
    July 21, 2009

    t's a celebration of bonds that are thicker than blood and demonstrates above all that fame-and-fortune fantasies can blur divisions of race and class as persuasively as they can exaggerate them.

    Source
    Variety
    April 26, 2006

    Formulaic and distastefully fake, Townsend's modern fairy tale unsuccessfuly tries to combine the premise of Pretty Woman with the formats of the fish-out-of-water and culture-collision.

    Time Out
    January 26, 2006

    You can see how the black, modern-day Pygmalion-type story could work, just, but not with this heap of cabbage leaves for a script, and not with such desperately goofy acting from Berry and Desselle.

    Source
    New York Times
    January 01, 2000

    It's good for a half-hour of humor before the fun starts to dissolve.

    ReelViews
    January 01, 2000

    Paying movie-goers deserve more, especially from someone who has previously shown signs of genuine comic aptitude.

    They both do good work, but it's Desselle who steals the film and grabs the major laughs.

    A string of hugely unfunny shenanigans ensue.

    Reeling Reviews
    April 09, 2005

    The story offers nothing original.

    June 24, 2003

    Not a great example of Halle Berry's talent.

    Star Newspapers (Chicago, IL)
    November 27, 2002

    Apallingly bad. Robert Townsend's attempt at satirizing black culture is far off the mark.

    Boxoffice Magazine
    June 05, 2002

    Bad, amateur, poor and silly.

    Source
    Cinematter
    January 01, 2000

    A horribly failed satire that should be avoided by all.
