Big Momma's Turd 3

2011 will once again bring us Malcolm Turner (and Martin's first trilogy) with half the title. This new one, titled BIG MOMMA'S: LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON sounds eerily reminiscent of those early-mid 90's direct-to-video movies like DARKMAN: DIE DARKMAN, DIE or any of the LEPRECHAUN sequels.

I guess Fox chopped off the House because someone in the executive's office grew a brain and realized they're no longer in the house of Hattie Mae Pierce (who I'm sure is still wondering about the status of her case against the FBI for taking her likeness in Big Momma's House 2)...or, they took a note from the Fast and the Furious franchise and cut off the extra words (Fast & Furious).

Here's the synopsis:

FBI agent Malcolm Turner and his 17-year-old son, Trent, go undercover at an all-girls performing arts school after Trent witnesses a murder. Posing as Big Momma and Charmaine, they must find the murderer before he finds them.


Yes, the same Trent from the first two, played by Jascha Washington is now portrayed by Brandon T. Jackson, hot off Tropic Thunder.

Little Trent:










Big Trent:
We think Ben Stiller is rolling his eyes at Brandon T Jackson's choice to play second fiddle to Martin Lawrence. But Brandon was probably a huge Big Momma's fan and this is probably a milestone for him.

















The plot is an epic bookend to a trilogy of fart jokes, misunderstandings, lots of screaming, and low grade action.

I will tell you exactly what happens in this movie:

  • Malcolm and Trent are at odds (typical stepfather-stepson conflict)
  • Trent is having problems with the ladies and Malcolm will coach him to get laid (or at least a phone number)
  • Faizon Love will provide the gay humor and will most likely develop a crush on Big Momma (because he's done that in so many other movies a la Money Talks with Chris Tucker)
  • Max Casella is most likely the murderer (with a name like "Canetti")
  • Expect a big performing arts set piece at the end with Big Momma and Charmaine.
There you have it. BIG MOMMA'S HOUSE 3: LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON. I mean, BIG MOMMA'S: LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON.

Let's just hope a fourth isn't planned.
