Joe Leydon Variety It's a tailor-made role for Cube -- not surprising, considering he wrote the script -- and he plays it with his familiar mix of brash-talking bluster and brow-knitting frustration. Oct 23, 2009 Full Review Brian Orndorf DVDTalk.com Humorless feature film that aspires toward a comedic pitch that should've never been placed in the hands of Ice Cube. Mike Epps, sure. But Cube is best bewildered, not fitted for clown shoes. Rated: C- Dec 7, 2009 Full Review F.X. Feeney L.A. Weekly Everything builds to a fairly careless climax. Oct 22, 2009 Full Review Michael Dequina TheMovieReport.com Ice Cube and Mike Epps' much-delayed fourth screen teaming has to be a landmark of some sorts in how a company's complete lack of concern for its own product could not be more brazenly apparent. Rated: 0.5/4 Oct 18, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Janky Promoters, the fourth film starring Ice cube and Mike Epps, is a sloppy, wildly uneven, and sparsely funny effort that fails to reach the side-splitting heights of their previous collaborations. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was pretty funny. I wish it had a good soundtrack, but Ice Cube and Mike Epps worked well together. It had its moments, but was a little rough around the edges. I thought it was worth watching, but most probably won't. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member very funny.cube and mike epps combination Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member i need this movie too funny Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member I think I may be the first white man to see this movie. When you see it you will know why... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member the only reason why i watched it was because of mike epps Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
