Haus über Kopf (2003)

Haus über Kopf: Directed by Adam Shankman. With Steve Martin, Queen Latifah, Eugene Levy, Joan Plowright. When a lonely guy meets a woman on the internet who happens to be in prison, she breaks out to get him to prove her innocence, and proceeds to wreak havoc on his middle-class life.

“OK, so the white-yuppie-and-black-ghetto-person-joining-up idea has been used a number of times in movies, but the dialog between Steve Martin and Queen Latifah makes this one worthwhile. Probably the best scenes are Betty Whiteu0026#39;s nasty comments, Queen Latifah teaching Missi Pyle a lesson, Steve Martin dressed – and attempting to talk – like a rapper (especially because of what Joan Plowright ends up doing in that scene), and of course, Eugene Levyu0026#39;s statements ending with u0026quot;Boou0026quot;. u0026quot;Bringing Down the Houseu0026quot; really does bring down the house. Completely silly, but fun nevertheless.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWho ever would have imagined Joan Plowright (aka Laurence Olivieru0026#39;s widow) doing what she did and saying what she said in the rapper scene?”
