Product Description
Rap mogul attempts to join stuffy country club.
Amazon.com
Antwan Andre "Big Boi" Patton of OutKast proves himself an ingratiating leading man in the rambunctious rap comedy Who's Your Caddy. High-powered rap mogul C-Note wants to get a membership at an exclusive country club run by a racist snob named Cummings. When he's rebuffed, C-Note and his pugnacious entourage stir up trouble until Cummings' sleek lawyer Shannon (Tamala Jones, Daddy Day Camp) advises Cummings to accept C-Note, so that if he breaks the rules, he can be legally ousted. But it turns out that C-Note has deeper issues on his mind and isn't so easily gotten rid of--especially when he starts to woo Shannon. This slapdash hybrid of Caddyshack and The Brothers feels silly and features far too much flatulence, homophobia, blows to the testicles, and buxom flygirls shaking their booties--but that makes it no different from the output of the Farrelly Brothers (Kingpin, There's Something About Mary) or the Wayans family (Scary Movie, Little Man). Cummings hams up his villainous role with professional vigor, Sherri Shepherd (The View) camps it up as C-Note's assistant, while cameos and brief bits by Garrett Morris (Saturday Night Live) and Tony Cox (Bad Santa) give the movie some added energy. --Bret Fetzer

Tsk, tsk, tsk.
"Who's Your Caddy?" is a story about a peaceful community and a loud group who's about to bring the house down. There's a very exclusive country club owned by a sexless, pompous, agitated, bigoted rich man, played by Jeffery Jones. His prestigious lifestyle got interrupted when an unwelcomed guest approached him for membership, a top-hollerin' egotistical rap star named C-Note (Big Boi). He and his posse recently bought an estate near the country club, and all he wanted was to join, but the guy from "Feeris Bueller" is too white and bigoted to accept. Once C-Note made the club president's life a living hell through extravagant and unrealstically comical means, he got the membership and decided to get crunked up with his usual flair of booze and booty-shakers. The club president tried to stop him with a black female lawyer, but she eventually gazed her eyes on the rapper like moth to a predictable character flame. No matter how he tried to one-up the brotha, C-Note and his crew kept sabotaging him in every step of the way, which all ended in a big tournament over who owns the country club.
A loud-and-obnoxious black man trying to bring down a rich whitey? That premise sounds a lot like the material "The Boondocks" used as a parody, except this movie is being completely straightforward; that's not good. It's kinda depressing that these series of asinine ebony-catering jokes could've been avoided had the club president let the rapper be a member and be at peace. In fact, the movie established that C-Note is a college graduate, he could've persuaded the club president by intellectual means. His crew happened to be multi-cultural with a few white people on his side, and he even helped Andy Milinokis gained confidence and be cool, so he's very open-minded with others; he even had a talented white dude as his caddy, who I have to admire for his bravery and high tolerance for all the stuff his crew had to dish out, even Faizon Love for making him sniff his finger from wherever he used it on. I noticed Terry Crews's making his brief appearance, and he could've had more time for better laughs than anything Faizon Love's fat repulsive butt could dish out; heck, get rid of Faizon Love altogether, and this movie would get my rating of approval.
The point is, "Who's Your Caddy?" had the potential to not suck. But it resorted to the lowest common denomination of stereotypical black antics that almost made it close to being as bad as "Soul Plane". A couple of things about the movie really bothered me, particularly the polo and golf matches. C-Note and his gang broke plenty of rules in those games, like Faizon on foot pushing some guy off his hose and hit the ball towards the post in Polo and disturbing a golfer's concentration by yelling and blowing gas, and yet they somehow win those matches; they even stoop low as to feed their enemy's horse with illicit substances. They're just as bad as the rich guy they're trying to bring down, and I hated how cocky and overconfident they acted for most of the movie. I doubt this is the story Our Stories Films really wanted to make, but a quick cash-grab for its targeted demographic in order to acquire extra dough; too bad it tanked at the box-office.
 Terrible waste of time and talent May 3, 2010

Not funny; poorly written; waste of talent; even the poignant theme was lost amidst potty-nonhumor. If I could rate this movie with a negative10 stars, I would. Please don't waste your money and encourage this mess.

I was surprised with how soon I received this in the mail. Literally in about 3 business days. The movies itself was in excellent condition. Thanks for supplying me with this wonderful movie.
 Stop Being So Serious April 16, 2010
John Stanley (Deep in the Heart of Texas)
Stop Being So Serious! If intellectual stimulous was my only motivation for viewing movies I'd shoot myself. "Who's Your Caddy" is hillarious. The humor is base, raunchy and politically incorrect and offers a great escape from the everyday rigor that we all face. Does it offer Academy Award caliber performance? Not even close. Did it make me feel good? Yeah, it did that big time.
