Dies und das:

In her first WUBA game, Juwanna is seen gnawing on a towel on the bench. This is an allusion to Jerry Tarkanian, the college basketball coach who gnawed on towels during the game.

Pannen:

Filmfehler: When they are playing cards and one of the ladies pulls off her beige bra you can see she is still wearing a white bra.

Dialogzitate:

Lorne Daniels: This is crazy. No one is gonna believe you're a woman!
Juwanna Mann: You did!
Lorne Daniels: All right. This is blackmail.
Juwanna Mann: No, it's black... FE-male!
Lorne Daniels: That's not funny.

A bit predictable and then some....

OK.... so it's a cute movie... It's more than just predictable and some of the jokes are expected. Over all, it has some funny moments and some cute parts... Having former cast members of "Mad TV", "In Living Color" and other funny shows works.... Vivica Fox plays the love vixen very well, but she's shown as being too dumb and too blind to the antics of her man - Romeo.

The move was very well cast and plays very well.... I just wonder if everybody really is THAT stupid to realize that he's a she.... He's just a bit obvious - but he plays it well and Juwanna's accent is convincing. I just wonder how his wig stays on so well.
