What to Know

Critics Consensus

The material is too thin for feature-length and the jokes are socially outdated and clueless.

Wesley Morris Boston Globe Marci X, though, is just clueless and sad, seemingly having missed the point that hip-hop is no longer a novelty to be slapped on the cheek with a white glove. Jul 29, 2014 Full Review Joe Morgenstern Wall Street Journal [it] might better have been called Marci Why. Jul 29, 2014 Full Review Nathan Rabin AV Club Rudnick can be an extraordinarily clever writer, but he doesn't seem to understand that a screenplay has to entail more than a series of skit ideas strung together. Jul 29, 2014 Full Review Jae-Ha Kim Jae-Ha Kim The running theme through "Marci X" is, "You've got to be real." But there's nothing real about the characters in this dismal comedy. Even as a satire, it fails because the filmmakers don't understand the subject they're satirizing. Rated: 1.5/4 Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Micheal Compton Bowling Green Daily News Here's a film that proves no matter how talented the performers, if the script is junk, then the final result will be junk. Nov 16, 2019 Full Review Leah Rozen People Magazine This is a messy disaster at which you can only scratch your head and mutter, "What were they thinking?" Jul 29, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

steve d Far more offensive than funny. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A Train Wreck that you can't stop watching, so ridiculous that it's funny Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/24/20 Full Review Audience Member good movie it makes me laugh and is pretty ridiculous. still like it in 2019 even if jokes are dated. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review camille l On pourrait croire à l'enfer avec ce synopsis résumé sur l'affiche, même si la présence de Damon Wayans rassure. Et pourtant Marci X est bien un pensum interminable (pourtant d'1h18) déguisé en romcom débile entre une riche juive new-yorkaise et un gangsta rapper. Si quelques phrases ici et là peuvent faire sourire (quasiment entièrement grâce à Jane Krakowski), Marci X est un facepalm fait film, un amoncellement incroyable de clichés qui oscillent entre l'ignorance et le pur et simple racisme, qui n'a absolument rien à dire sur son sujet et qui se contente de s'appuyer sur Lisa Kudrow et de reléguer Damon Wayans au second plan. Bien évidemment, comme prévu, ça ne marche absolument pas. Marci X n'est pas une horreur, mais on n'en est pas loin. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I was a bit shocked at how corny some of the scenes got. It shocks even more that something like this could get a green light and actually get made. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Fun, campy movie! I really enjoyed it, every movie does have to be Oscar material! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
