WHY? WHY DID I WATCH THIS MOVIE?

You see, deja vu is the phenomenon that occurs when someone feels that the current experience has been experienced in the past.

Do you feel insulted that I explained what deja vu is? Did this review begin as if Michael Scott was the author? Now you know how it feels to watch Naked.

Aside from explaining every joke to you, and giving you the most obvious of endings (Who’s to blame? Probably the mean people? Yea, it’s the mean people) The acting, story, setting, and action are all pretty unbearable.

I feel for Dennis Haysbert and Regina Hall, who didn’t have near enough to do in the film. Okay, okay, I’m rambling. I’ve become the movie I don’t want you to see.

Every day, the morning of his wedding, Rob (Marlon Wayans) wakes up in an elevator, nude. Once he navigates his way through the hotel he is in, and through the parade outside, and through the impromptu song writing session Brian McKnight is having beside a random pool in Charleston (I think it’s Charleston) he realizes the church he is supposed to get married in is full of the friends and family there to attend his wedding. Including his best man, (GOT to be the worst best man of all time) parents, and bride to be. Nobody seems to care where the groom is.

“Your cell phone was dead!”

SO YOU JUST STOPPED LOOKING? GOOD GOD…

Cue Groundhog Day. He gets to the church and something goes wrong, the church bells ring, he wakes up in the elevator. Repeat for 90 minutes until the obvious villains get called out as such and mercifully, the credits roll.

There is literally not one good thing I can say about this film. It is so boring, and so unfunny, that it needn’t be seen by a living thing with eyes. I know nobody sets out to make a bad movie, but it seems like they tried with this one.

Is it Watchlist-worthy? lololol
