10 Great Moments In Otherwise Terrible Movies
10. White Chicks - Terry Crews Sings Along To Vanessa Carlton
The Terrible Movie: White Chicks is a Wayans brothers... is comedy even the right word to use? Anyway it's a film about two male black FBI agents who have to disguise themselves as white women for reasons you can happily live the rest of your lives without knowing.
Most of it is filled with the usual predictable toilet jokes, but with the added twist of having every punchline delivered by a man whose disguise looks less "rich bimbo socialite" and more "last thing you see in a horror movie before you die".
The Great Moment: Terry Crews has a surprising gift for physical comedy and this is the film that showcased it to the world. During a date with one of the "girls", Vanessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles starts playing on the radio and he excitedly sings along.
It's a pretty obvious joke, the big muscular guy likes a girly pop song. However, what actually sells it is the 100% commitment Crews puts in, singing with a huge smile plastered across his face and dancing just like you do when you think nobody's watching.
It's more or less the only genuinely funny scene in the movie and, if anything, is only made funnier by how lazy and predictable the rest of the film is in contrast.
