Class Act takes a fairly radical idea and turns it into a sitcom, although not without giving us some idea of the possibilities it has missed. Go to Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures 07/30/2012

This movie was really nothing but fluff for the decade, featuring hot hip-hop stars of the day. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf BrianOrndorf.com 06/04/2012

A film that strains to be entertaining until it's red in the face, but doesn't contain a single laugh. Go to Full Review Ryan Cracknell Movie Views 05/16/2010
While not a horrible film, it certainly isn't the type of feature that would make anyone an icon or even a star. Go to Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com 08/22/2005

thiago s @Thiagostone Jan 17 Fiome fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme tentou fazer uma comédia dos mesmo personagens do house party e não deu certo, as cenas são ruins e a história não ajuda em nada, o filme colocou um pouco de romance entre os dois protagonistas, mas não deu certo, com tudo isso eu não recomendo esse filme.
