The Wash (2001)

The Wash: Directed by DJ Pooh. With Anthony Albano, Dr. Dre, Tic, Lamont Bentley. Life at the car wash is a place where anything can and does happen to two friends (Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg) trying to earn money to pay their rent.

“The Wash is like hip-hop eye candy- it looks cool and even tempting, but when you try and hear the jokes it registers that itu0026#39;s stupid a lot of the time. The Wash, from co-writer of Friday, also did 3 strikes which was interesting some of the time but not totally as funny as it shouldu0026#39;ve been. Poohu0026#39;s new film is like that, yet instead of being interesting itu0026#39;s hip and flashy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSnoop Dogg and Dr. Dre star here (not there first film together, the better film Training Day comes to mind) as two guys who usually have what most young urban professionals want- weed, hoes and uh, bling bling. But the money well has run dry and a 3 day notice has just been put up and in order for dre to pay his half of the rent he gets a job with the car wash Snoop Dogg works. He starts to realize Snoop at work is a complete slacker as tensions start to build between the two, but this changes when their boss (played mostly dead-pan by George Wallace) gets kidnapped. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enSometimes itu0026#39;s laugh out loud, other times itu0026#39;s so quiet in the theater after a bad joke you can actually hear crickets chirp. In other words, itu0026#39;s stupid, low brow fun with many cameos- Tommy Chong, Eminem, Shaquille Ou0026#39;Neil, Pauly Shore, Tiny Lester, writer/director Pooh as one of the kidnappers and a couple of minor characters from Friday and 3 strikes. Between B- and C+”
