Big Mommas House Like Father Like Son



Martin Lawrence reprises his role as Big Momma in the third instalment of the Big Momma’s franchise.  Hopefully it’ll be the last.
FBI agent Malcolm Turner has to put on the wig once again when his stepson, Trent (Brandon T. Jackson), witnesses a murder.  Deciding he needs to be placed into protection, he throws Trent into an all-girls school in disguise, posing as Chairmaine.  However, Trent struggles to adjust to the life as a woman and it is down to Malcolm to keep him from blowing his cover while at the same time, not giving himself away.
I didn’t find the first Big Momma’s House funny, or the second one, and this third instalment felt more like an endurance test rather than anything else.  But I’m not twelve and I realise it’s not my type of humour so if you liked the prequels to Big Momma’s house, then the likelihood is that you’ll like this one too.
