Where's the no star rating--it should be created for this horror
by Marcus Aurelius (PA USA)
If the popular media does not offer enough homophobia, anti-semitism, gender stereotypes, and racial self-hatred, this is the film for you! It offers all in abundant supply with added bonus of 20% more cliches than other movies. There's the added advantage that every joke fails. How many films can boast that.
There are a number of 1 cent used copies listed here. You may want to wait for them to come down a bit more, so you don't feel robbed of your money and your time.
4/5
Decide for yourself
by Roger Beickel (La Grande, OR)
This movie has gotten far too many negative reviews. Yes, this movie is dumb. But anyone who cares to take a second look can see that it was well thought out. The satire is great and timely. If you are not too proud or high minded to enjoy lowbrow comedy then you should give this movie a chance. Too many critics love to tear a movie apart because it does not suite their personal tastes, and they go out of their way to make everyone else hate it as well. This is too bad, and such people shouldn't write reviews at all, in my opinion. Good movie critics need to give people a chance to decide for themselves what they sould like or dislike. Just because you are a movie critic doesn't mean your tastes are better than anyone else's.
4/5
It's okay. You can laugh
by mateo52 (State College, Pa.)
The problem with Marci X is in this era of ideological constraint identification of an audience base was an impossibility. However, if you liked Bamboozled, this satirical film lampooning the exploitive cultures of Rap Music and Corporate America while managing to lob a grenade or two at the uninformed arrogance of conspicuously consuming socialites will entertain you as well.
Lisa Kudrow is the over the top incarnation of the Upper East Side conveniently relevant Jewish socialite and Damon Wayans succeeds admirably as the up from the ghetto hip-hop icon. The unification of the two, if you watch the film, is not as implausible as some might think because while their nurturing may have been diametrically opposite, by the time they meet the they have each become less than commendable representations of all that is wrong with inculcation of economic excess.
Richard Benjamin is the symbol of corporate management, where the only truly operative consideration is enhancement of the bottom line until orchestrated public outcry, in this instance lead by a self-aggrandizing Senator portrayed Christine Baranaski who naturally has her own private agenda, places superficial attention to social responsibility on the cusp. Throw in some gems offered by Kudrow's sidekicks, most notably , Jane Krakowski, add a J.Lo wannabe, and an assortment of caricatures from both sides of the economic divide and you have about ninety minutes of fun.
3/5
Beautifully campy
by Lafayette Janeway (San Francisco, CA)
That's what this movie was, and it was entirely underrated. I hope that society will resurrect it sometime in the near future and revere it for the so-bad-it's-good movie that it is. Yes, as far as social commentary goes, the movie could have gone further. But unlike a lot of other movies out there that are just plain terrible, this one has the admirable quality of missing the mark but actually still being entertaining and, dare I say it, classic in its own right.
5/5
too funny
by Robert E. Collins (ohio)
this movie is just so out there you can't help but love it... all the variety of the people just add to the laughs... you get both silly humor and the stuff you have to think about...
Marci X Summary

"JAP" meets rap in
Marci X
, a feel-good comedy that was filmed in 2000 and shelved for three years. Despite its lowly fate, this cross-cultural satire has a respectable pedigree, written by
In and Out
screenwriter Paul Rudnick (A.K.A.
Premiere
magazine columnist "Libby Gelman-Waxner") and directed with surprising vitality by Hollywood veteran Richard Benjamin, who seems doomed to a string of flops. Lisa Kudrow is perfectly cast as a Jewish socialite whose corporate mogul father (Benjamin) is being ruined by controversy involving a raunchy hip-hop star (Damon Wayans) on his payroll, and an ultra-conservative senator (Christine Barnaski) who demands censorship and public apologies. Aided by Marc Shaiman's catchy spoof-songs, Rudnick and Benjamin earn some big laughs when Kudrow and Wayans hook up for some color-blind synergy, but
Marci X
never quite hits a groove. It was stale before its release, and toothless when it should have had bite. Still, it's recommendable as Benjamin's most ambitious comedy since 1982's
