5.0 out of 5 stars hilarious, April 14, 1999

By A Customer

obviously most of the above reviews were from women...this great light hearted comedy cracked me up, Bill Bellamy was great - a well worth watch (when no women are around!)

4.0 out of 5 stars BO-D-USSY, March 9, 2007

By	Dayna Newman "Slasher Diva" (Tampa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: How to Be a Player (DVD)

"How To Be a Player" Had me rolling from beginning till the end..
Bernie Mac was Hilarious.. and the story was cute and thorough. Bill Bellamy and Natalie Desselle "his Nosey sister were good as well.
I'm gonna keep this review short. BUT BABY!!! Please don't have any soda or food in your mouth when Bernie Mac
Walks in right after his wife was creepin with Belamy and says.." Baby I smell somethin stank.. what is it ? and she proclaims she doesn't know what he is talking about.. so he say's it again. "I SMELL SOMETHIN STANK" by then I was already fallin out.
Then he says it smells like BO-D-USSY in here .. You will find out what bodussy is and ROTF...
It's always entertaining and good for some good laughs.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you want to screw a lot of chicks, watch this movie.
After seeing this movie I put into action a lot of what the hero did. I got to sleep with 27 woman over the next 5 months, not incredible but still a lot of fun.
