3 Strikes (2000)
Directed by DJ Pooh, 3 Strikes boasts a stacked cast roster that includes the likes of Mo’Nique, Faizon Love, E-40, and George Wallace, to name a few. Despite an even longer list of celebrity cameos, it all proved to be uneventful as fans generally regarded the film as one with little to no humor at all.
Critics didn’t hold back either. “Pooh’s 3 Strikes aims a good deal higher in concept than, say, your average booty movie – but the crude, witless jokes are exactly that level.” A.O. Scott of The New York Times called it “a second-string effort.” The film wasn’t a total loss considering the movie did open at number 12 at the North American box office. As a result, the film did generate $3,684,704 in the opening week.
