Sprung

Ad man Jack Lawrence is tired of his job and the constant sexism he faces. During a company retreat, he meets Brandy, a smart and independent woman who shares his frustrations. Together, they hatch a plan to get revenge on their sleazy boss and reclaim their dignity, leading to a series of hilarious and chaotic events.

Sprung was met with mixed to negative reviews from critics, who often cited its predictable plot and reliance on stereotypes. However, it found a more favorable audience among Black moviegoers, who appreciated its comedic take on workplace discrimination and its star power.

• Relies heavily on tired stereotypes and predictable humor.
• Martin Lawrence and Tisha Campbell's chemistry is a highlight, but not enough to save the film.
• A few laugh-out-loud moments, but ultimately a shallow comedy.

Google audience: Audiences found the film to be a fun, albeit silly, romantic comedy with good chemistry between the leads. Many enjoyed the humor and the satisfying revenge plot, though some felt it was a bit dated.

The film was inspired by director Peter Farrelly's own experiences with workplace discrimination.
