Writer/director/actor Chris Rock creates a perverse remake of Eric Rohmer’s "Chloe In The Afternoon" (1972), about a husband’s potential to cheat on his wife.

Richard Cooper plays Rock, a successful Manhattan investment banker and family man who gets some welcome distraction from Nikki Tru (Kerry Washington), a platonic gal-pal from college, who unexpectedly visits him at work.

At home Richard’s wife of seven years has become frigid, and he chooses to ignore the jeopardy to his job that Nikki’s frequent office visits cause.

What makes Rock’s stand-up comedy funny does not translate to feature film narrative.

Spazzing bubbles of slapstick humor, melodrama, musical numbers and sterile jokes emphasize Rock’s unpolished acting and directing abilities.

Rated R. 94 mins.
