Considering the canvas the story provides, and the richness of the tradition it taps into, the amount and quality of the music is pretty disappointing.

This one's only fair, but it has its low-down wiles and its moments.

It is not a perfect film but it is a nice, solid reminder of how great Bernie Mac was.
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies

It really is bittersweet to watch Mac in one of his final performances. He makes the most of pretty average material here.
