Lisa Kudrow is "luminous" (Bob Campbell, Newhouse
News Service) and Damon Wayans "gives a performance of immense charm" (Stephen
Holden, The New York Times) in this hilarious film about a culture clash between
a hip-hop artist and a born-to-shop socialite.
Marci Feld (Kudrow) doesn’t know
about rap... she thinks it’s what salespeople do in the ritzy boutiques where
she shops. But everything changes after rapper Dr. S (Wayans) releases a
controversial CD for the record label owned by Marci’s ailing father (Richard
Benjamin).
When the music ignites a national protest against her father and his
company, Marci decides to step in to save his reputation and the family
business!
With her posse of pampered girlfriends and her designer bag stuffed
with credit cards, Marci sets out to clean up Dr. S’s act. To succeed, she’ll
have to take on hostile reporters, a power-hungry senator (Christine Baranski),
and Dr. S’s dangerous girlfriend, Yo Lo.
Bursting with laughs and rousing
musical performances, "Marci X" is one comedy "you won’t want to miss." (Liz
Braun, Toronto Sun).
