New York Times - A.O. Scott : ...sometimes feels more like a script read-through than like an actual movie, but its warmth is likely to carry you through the stretches of cliché and tedium. more...

The beginning of the movie was not as funny as the middle and end was. There were a few parts that could have been funnier with the right moves. | | | | Reply | | |      aszeto says @ Friday - January 25,2008
This movie was a very good movie. Katt Williams really played his role and gave an outstanding performance. Ice cube was great. | | | | Reply | | |      ksonne06 says @ Friday - January 25,2008
Ice Cube with Kat Williams is hilarious. Tracey Morgan is semi-funny too. I don't like the movie. | | | | Reply | | |      dollyparton1946 says @ Wednesday - January 23,2008
First Sunday is very inspirational. Everyone should see this movie. Ignore the mild language and sexual humor. | | | | Reply | | |      gymrat356 says @ Saturday - January 19,2008
This is perhaps the funniest movie i have ever seen. Tracy Morgan is funny, Ice Cube has stepped his acting game up and really shined in this movie and Katt williams makes this movie into a classic. | | | | Reply | | |      pearljm1181 says @ Saturday - January 19,2008
Not that funny. Dumb plot. Acting was awful. This movie is not funny and the story is ridiculous. | | | | Reply | | |      ulyssespsa says @ Saturday - January 19,2008
This has to be the funniest movie I have see in a long time. I have never seen a film that has had the entire auditorium laughing so hysterically from the beginning to the end. | | | | Reply | | |      soniac1992 says @ Saturday - January 19,2008
First Sunday is an great comedy movie. Katt Williams did his job well. Mix of funny & tears makes this a good movie. | | | | Reply | | |      kgeyer says @ Thursday - January 17,2008
