About this product

Product Information

A Rutgers University star player, Todd Andrews (Storm P), is picked first in the NBA draft and under the manipulation of his hot, gold-digging girlfriend (Meagan Good) he starts living large, replete with big house in a snobby, gated community. This doesn't go over well with his down-to-earth mom (Jenifer Lewis), who fears her boy will lose track of his roots. At any rate, it's time for the annual family cookout, and Todd decides to have it at his new digs, bringing in a caravan of eccentric family members and arousing the ire of the gate security guard (Queen Latifah). Plunging through a lot of sticky racial issues, this comedy manages to address concerns like the transition of African American culture and community, and to stay very loose and funny at the same time. Farrah Fawcett is good as the racist wife of a retired judge (Danny Glover) whom she doesn't seem to realize is African American himself (they're the angry neighbors). Rapper Ja Rule plays the requisite villainous thug from the old neighborhood determined to ride Todd's coattails to big money via some stolen sneakers. The large cast is generally inspired, but Lewis is the big standout here, transcending what could have been just another "big momma" stereotype by mixing fierce intelligence and wit with warmhearted sass. Latifah is also hilarious as the racial-profiling rent-a-cop; she also produced and co-wrote the original story.

CD arrived a day ahead of scheduled USPS delivery date undamaged and EXACTLY as seen in seller photos, including one sent via e-mail as part of confirmation inquiry. Matter of fact, I would grade overall condition of this one 'Like New' as opposed to 'Very Good" as it was still sealed via holo security strip (looks like only the original factory wrap was removed, truth be told). Quick shipping and outstanding seller communication also noted, adding to my 'Saved' list upon leaving feedback!

  • The Cookout

    When Todd Anderson signs a $30 million deal with his hometown team, the New Jersey Nets, he knows that his life is set for a big change. To keep things real, he decides to throw a barbeque at his place just like the ones his family used to have. But when you have new and old friends, family, agents, and product reps in the same house, things are bound to get crazy. This movie had a good message about being responsible and down to earth even after hitting pay dirt. The Cookout is a ok movie, if you take if for what it is.

  • Great movie

    I loved it, a dream come true does happen. Queen Lathfa is really funny in her role as security guard. She rags out a Girl Scout selling cookies and then buys a boy of thin Mints and thells her not to come back until she has shortbreads cookies. Just so funny. I've watched it over and over again just too funny

  • I love it & will enjoy it, I thank you very much nice doing business with you see ya next time.
