While you would think the title of this film would mean it's about certain members of the United States Congress, it totally isn't! It's actually a Jim Carrey picture. Remember him? We all thought he was hilarious back in the day but is that still the case now?

Back in the day when it was announced that Spike Lee was making this movie it made a lot of people really angry. And by people we mean other black people! The boys will discuss that but honestly all they care about is…does this still work?

Talk about the sounds of silence! A black & white movie with almost no dialogue? Made in 1989 and not 1929? About a homeless guy taking care of a baby? And it's a comedy? What is this madness? The boys investigate not only does it still work but how could it?
