| Lance Rivera directs this huge cast starring Queen Latifah, Storm P, Ja Rule, Tim Meadows, Jenifer Lewis, Farrah Fawcett, Danny Glover and many others.
Todd Anderson (Storm P) is chosen as the #1 NBA draft pick by the New Jersey Nets and signs for $30 million. This changes his life as he buys a new house in a stuffy white area and invites family from the old neighborhood for a cookout. The timing is bad since he has also scheduled an endorsement interview.
Queen Latifah plays an eccentric security guard who is hired to bust anyone breaking the neighborhood association's stringent rules. The cookout gets wild and Todd is embarrassed with his family. Plenty of action and confusion in this wild story that culminates in a cookout. |
