Pauly Shore should be punched in the mouth


This movie is so racist I can't even handle it. It seems like he gives these children realistic hope in being adopted but is actually just messing with them. In addition to that is the non-stop racist comments. Don't be a red neck moron and turn a blind eye to this because this is a serious offense to me. Pauly Shore should never work again.

Listen kid, we're all in this together- Tuttle

The kids were actually cast in this film, they were not really up for adoption. Offensive, yea, I guess it could be, but it's Pauly, so you can't really take him seriously can you? Just a thought.

I thought the same thing you did at first but upon further research, I found out the kids were actors from South Africa. Odwa was the cutest kid ever!

Lol you don't even get it is a fake and makes fun of people who think in stereotypical terms... wow some people are so think headed.

I agree, the guy's an *beep* who should be fired for this crap.

Wow, did any of the people here claiming the film is racist actually watch it to the end? If you did then you would know that it was a satire on wealthy ignorant westerners who think it's right-on to adopt a child from the third world, and treat their "exotic" adoptee as a fashion accessory. Much of it was staged, and the message is pretty clear.

Maybe he changed his mind about the adoption. Maybe the kids didn't act right and turned him off of the idea. Don't be so quick to judge.

Actually he did a good job of showing the ridiculousness of it all.

WOW you missed the point of the movie, it's a satire for goodness sake.
