Big Momma`sHouse.

Malcolm Turner(Martin Lawrence) is an F.B.I agent who is on a case with his partner John (Paul Giamatti).they are trying to track down an escaped prisoner Lester (Terrence Howard ).
there only lead is his girlfriend Sherry (Nia Long) and their son Trent (Jascha Washington).
when they get to Sherry`s apartment she has already fled.after a lillte investigating the only link they have as to where she could be going is her surigate style momma Big Momma(Ella Mitchell )

They come up with a plan and set up a stake out at the house opposite Big Momma`s.
There are alot of very funy moments while John has to keep Big Momma talking at his door while malcom runs across to bug the phones.

Suddenly Big Momma has a call and has to go away for a while to help a friend.No sooner has she left in the taxi than the two are in the Big Momma`s house looking for clues.The phone rings and the answer machine Cuts in only to be Sherry leaving a message.On the spur of the moment malcom picks up the phone and impersonated Big Momma and persuades Sherry to bring Trent and come and stay with her.

We have several comedy scenes as we see John and Malcolm transform Malcolm into Big Momma.

The plan is all set and Sherry comes to stay.The story is now for Malcolm to try and get Sherry to confess her part in the Bank Robbery and find out where Lester is.there are alot of other incidents with Malcolm as big Momma that made me cry laughing but I don`t want to spoil the film.

Sherry falls for Malcolm thinking he as handyman which is another role he takes on as well as big momma.
Finally time is running out and Malcolm is about to tell Sherry everything when firstly Lester turns up and has Sherry and Trent with a gun pointing at them under his coat saying they are leaving and the real Big Momma walks in .

Malcolm Big Momma struggles and fights with Lester and his disguise falls off in the fight,whilst the real big Momma shockingly watches and demands to know what is happening.

Extremely funny film with very commical moments and will the love come through.Wait and see.

Big Momma`s House 2

Malcolm is back, but he has promised to take a desk job to his wife who is pregnant,because she wants him safe.
Malcolm is finding this hard to deal with then.....
A case comes up of his old partner being murdered,he cannot stop himself and when he finds out that the Cheif suspect and his wife are looking for a nanny for there children,Big Momma`s back.
He turns up at the interviews of which one of the other canditates is an undercover agent and basically does everything possible to ensure none of them get the job.Low and behold the new nanny is big momma.
The father of the children Tom Fuller(Mark Moses),is a workaholic who never has time for his children and is the chief suspect,his wife Leah Fuller (Emily Procter) has far to busy a schedual for the children hence the nanny,and this is causing the children problems.
Big Momma becomes a nanny to three children Kevin (Zachary Levi) likes jumping off high places and eating sand and won`t speak,Carrie (Chloe Moretz) needs help with her cheerleading routine and has very bad temper tantrums,and finally the moody 15-year old, Molly (Kat Dennings),who is turning to punk rock to get the attention of an older boy.
Big Momma got her hands full this time and whats worse is his wife thinks he is cheating on her.
Like the first film there are lots of extremely funny moments and rib tickling comments but everything comes right in the end (not to say to much and spoil the film.

What i find great is that you can now buy the two film series in one package at very reasonable prices.
