You got me straight trippin', boo.

BringinG DowN the HouSe, while it's not High Art by any standard, is an excellent comedic vehicle for Steve Martin, Queen Latifah and most delightfully, Eugene Levy (who actually gets to be cOoL in a film for once). Stevo cuts loose here, reminding us what a WiLD and CraZy GuY he actually is, and Queen Latifah comes off amazingly genuine in every scene, displaying a thoroughly warm and engaging screen presence only hinted at in her other film appearances thus far. The bottom line: I laughed aloud a lot, dog. It be jammin' to the root.
