James Bowman
There is a moment in What’s the Worst that Could Happen? where the movie almost seems to live up to the promise of its title. This comes when Max Fairbanks (Danny DeVito), a nasty and insufferable billionaire, attempts to justify to his wife, Lutetia ...read the complete What's the Worst That Could Happen? movie review at James Bowman

The Land of Eric (Eric D. Snider)
None of these are strong enough to make them the main characters, but as bits of diversion occurring in the periphery, they do nicely. Good casting and good writing are not exactly the hallmarks of a Martin Lawrence comedy, but at least they got one ...read the complete What's the Worst That Could Happen? movie review at The Land of Eric (Eric D.

The Movie Chicks
Kevin Caffrey (Martin Lawrence) is a thief with really good taste. To learn the market price for stuff he is going to steal, he goes to an auction where he meets Amber (Carmen Ejogo), the victim of a failed dot com, who is selling a beloved painting. ...read the complete What's the Worst That Could Happen? movie review at The Movie Chicks
CNN Showbiz (Paul Tatara)
Ejogo's ardor is even more baffling given Lawrence's extremely fishy close-ups. In many shots -- though, tellingly, not in all of them -- his face is so smooth and gleaming, it appears that he's been worked over by a team of computer artists. Apparently, ...read the complete What's the Worst That Could Happen? movie review at CNN Showbiz (Paul Tatara)

These two guys are good for alot of laughs, the supporting cast are great too. I hope they will do more films together in the future.

by Jason Stough on April 09, 2002
Martin Lawrence is the man, just flat out awesome. The way he says ahhhhhhhhhhh and dances when he saw the cars that Max had was pure genius. And the detective Tardido was hysterical he made me cry from laughter. The movie was just to funny for words, ...

by David Manning on June 05, 2001
Let me tell you folks, the worst that could happen is that you miss this hilarious movie. Martin Lawrence is one crazy guy, and that Danny DeVito is so short! Martin's a crook, and Danny is a big businessman (only he's not actually very big, get it?!) ...
by Shashank Tripathi on May 30, 2004
Starts out with good timing, and some decent laughable banter from Martin Lawrence. Nothing laugh out loud funny but pleasantly amusing schtick. The central premise is actually quite interesting (billionaire stealing a ring from a petty robber etc), but ...

Not the Best movie, but worth seeing. if your looking for a movie to make you laugh alot than thi isn't it. But its alot better than some other movie out there so just give it a ...
by Jennifer Zell on June 06, 2001
While "What's the Worst that Can Happen" was far from the best comedy I've seen, I was very impressed by many of the supporting actors and bit players. Of particular note although somewhat overlooked by the critics was the voluptuous Sascha ...
