I don't want it.

"Malibu's Most Wanted" is the "It's Pat" of the rap world. (Sorry NYC. hehe)...it takes what was an amusing, somewhat entertaining on a sketch comedy and tries to give it an extended period of time front and center in a major feature film. This trend must die...Stop it, I say, Stop it!

B-rad is an amusing enough idea...and Jamie Kennedy certainly can be funny, as evidenced by his short-lived but somewhat acclaimed Jamie Kennedy Experiment. Yet, this film never moves beyond this one joke premise into anything remotely watchable. A talented cast is largely wasted here including Kennedy, Taye Diggs, Anthony Anderson, Regina Hall, Blair Underwood, Jeffrey Tambor, Ryan O'Neal and, yes, even Bo Derek is in this flick. Kennedy is actually pretty funny here...he knows this character and inhabits him well...but he is surrounded by Anderson and Diggs...who clearly are out of their element. Diggs, in particular, is just not this kind of actor and woefully miscast. The script is just an expansion of the character...so nothing special here...Jamie Kennedy fans will find this more amusing than the general public...I wouldn't rent this one, but a late night cable view is alright.
