This def has to be one of the greatest collabos in a black comedy. I love Mike Epps, he is hillarious and Ice Cube has stunned me by how exceptional of an actor he is considering the fact that his first... Full review

This movie is really funny. My favorite scene is the bathroom scene. Ice Cube plays Bookum, a Miami bounty hunter in search of petty conman Reggie Wright(Mike Epps). The two meet and end up mixed up in a diamond heist. Eva... Full review

All About The Benjamins is simply funny. Cube and Epps are the perfect comedic team. This movie was hilarious but also packed with Extreme action. The story was nicely done and the movie made perfect sense. This was possibly the best... Full review

Overall: All About the Benjamins is a seriously funny film that while having many faults does succeed in making you laugh throughout the feature. There is one deleted scene and a gag reel that I thought proved to be very funny. ... Full Review

Ice Cube, who produced the movie, apparently decided that he would enjoy playing a bounty hunter, and not just any bounty hunter but one who (yawn) doesn't get along with his boss and refuses to take on a partner. Ice Cube and Epps are able performers with a nice rapport, but they can't do much with this lackluster plot, like the umpteenth re-tread of a reject from the "Beverly Hills Cop" series. ...

All About the Benjamins" is rated R for a nearly constant stream of strong, sexually related profanity, brutal violence (gunfire, beatings and both automotive and marine mayhem), gore, a scene of torture, use of racial epithets and crude sexual slang terms, nude artwork (mannequins and T-shirts) and a brief sex scene (overheard). ...

Where All About The Benjamins most succeeds are its smaller moments, such Epps is normally never as funny as in this scene. Mike Epps gives a seriously irritating performance as Reggie Wright. ... Full Review

Throughout, characters keep announcing their motives in the course of clumsy explanatory conversations. He collaborated on the screenplay with Ronald Lang, a writer making his debut, and the result often seems amateurish. ... Full Review
