Product Description:
Working class New York bus driver Ralph Kramden (Cedric the Entertainer) is a man with big dreams that never work out. His friend, sewer specialist Ed Norton (Mike Epps) is always around to help him get in (and out of) trouble. Standing by their husbands are devoted wives Alice (Gabrielle Union) and Trixie (Regina Hall) who make ends meet by waitressing at a neighborhood diner. Throw in a stray dog named Iggy who runs like the wind (when he's motivated) and you have a comical underdog story for the whole family.

Cedric the Entertainer transforms Jackie Gleason's classic blue-collar sitcom The Honeymooners into an urban comedy. New York City bus driver Ralph Kramden (Cedric, Barbershop) lives in volatile bliss with his wife Alice (Gabrielle Union, Bring It On). His best friend Ed Norton (Mike Epps, Next Friday) and his wife Trixie (Regina Hall, Scary Movie) live upstairs in a cramped, dingy apartment building. Ralph and Ed get into constant trouble due to their brainless get-rich-quick schemes, including buying a Pullman train car and trying to race an abandoned greyhound--schemes which only serve to lose the money they need to buy a charming duplex on a tree-lined street. Unfortunately, there's a sleazy real-estate agent (Eric Stoltz, Pulp Fiction) who's wooing the little old lady who owns the property, so it's a race to see if Ralph and Ed can raise the money before the bill of sale gets signed. It's a shame that so many cliches had to die so that their hollow, lifeless corpses could be put on display in this formulaic excuse for a movie. Also featuring John Leguizamo (Moulin Rouge), who rattles off a string of one-liners that almost become funny through sheer velocity. --Bret Fetzer

i know everyone says "i'm not racist". to say it or not to say it has nothing to do with this review. if you are going to remake something, be historically correct. don't remake sanford and son with an all white cast. don't make the honeymooners with an all black cast. we will all be happier, black and white. and by the way i loved sanford and son, saw every episode, and i am white. :-)

The Honeymooners (DVD)
Cedric the entertainer resurrects the NY City bus driver character made famous by Jackie Gleason with his perpetual "get rich quick" schemes.
All-in-all an entertaining movie.
Recommended for Cedric the Entertainer fans and fans of Jackie Gleason.

Loved this remake of the old favorite Honeymooners sitcom. Always adored that sitcom. My husband and I would watch the reruns every New Years Day during marathons. It improved our marriage because we got to see the funny side of married life and a show where the couple was working class, poor and struggling just like us but, despite all that, they loved each other. The remake added another commonality by showing Ralph & Alice and Norton & Trixy as Black Americans. It kept to the show's intent ... Read More

First the disclaimer - I grew up in NYC at a time when the original Honeymooners series was on WPIX just about every night at 11:00 pm. As such, I've seen every episode and have always loved the show. I had heard all the terrible things about this film and was prepared for a train wreck of a movie. Surprise - there is no train wreck here! (Although there is a buried Pullman car).
This is the first movie I've seen Cedric the Entertainer in, and I can't imagine a better choice. Chris Farley ... Read More

I thought the movie was quite funny. It had some great actors and actresses. I think the new modern Honeymooners added alot of soul, spunk and humor. It is a great family movie.
