Ice Cube and Tracy Morgan play Durell and LeeJohn, Baltimore buddies with an unfortunate knack for making the worst possible choice in any scenario.

Drawing comparisons to The Wire may be unfair, but taken on its own, this anemic vehicle for Ice Cube and Tracy Morgan to mug and jive through is just ..

As a movie, the new comedy First Sunday is clumsy, overly earnest and eminently forgettable.
Film Journal

Its probably supposed to be a little bit tragic, too.The adults in this movie are a mess.

Without any comment on the situation they sit down to two plates of toast that are charred to a crisp.Even the throwaway touches are ticklishly funny.

If Tyler Perry ever wanted to turn Dog Day Afternoon into a treacly after school special, it would probably end up looking a lot like this.

But if you dont mind a pat, sentimental ending, you might be entertained.

Unsentimental, non glamorized, and unclouded by the usual overlay of rose colored nostalgia, this is a raw but rewarding motion picture.

His little boy whine can make routine lines like If I go to jail, theyre gonna make me a woman! pretty funny.
