I Think I Love My Wife
Having nothing to watch last night I found myself flipping through HBO’s OnDemand offerings when I came across the recent Chris Rock movie “I Think I Love My Wife“. Rock, who wrote, directed, and produced the film plays a bored married man who spends his days fantasizing about sex with other woman and his nights being denied sex by his wife. This all changes however with the arrival of Nikki (played by Kerry Washington), the sassy, super-sexy, ex-girlfriend of one of Rock’s old college buddies.
The Good:
- Kerry Washington is HAWT. Need more proof? Watch She Hate Me.
- There are certain scenes in the movie where Rock literally shifts into stand-up mode and begins delivering jokes as if he were on stage at the Apollo. These moments are actually quite funny.
The Bad:
- The Movie as a whole. The acting is nothing to write home about, the plot is forced and awkward, and the characters have ZERO chemistry.
The Ugly:
- Rocks acting is as bad as it ever was. At this point I think it’s safe to say the man simply doesn’t belong in front of the camera unless he’s performing stand-up.
The Verdict
Don’t rent, don’t buy. Keep your distance.

Rock’s last stand up was funny as hell. As an actor though, golly!
