Synopsis
Guess Who (2005) is Kevin Rodney Sullivan's romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM, with Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher as a father-in-law and son-in-law who grate on each other from the first handshake. The film flips the premise of the classic Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.
Theresa brings her fiancé home to meet the family. Her dad, Percy Jones, has already done his homework and likes what he sees — a solid job, a bright future. The one thing Theresa left out is that Simon is white. Percy, a man who needs to run everything, refuses to give an inch. Under one roof the two wage a quiet war: jabs across the dinner table, a forced shared bed, a humiliating quiz on Black culture, and a tug-of-war over Theresa's loyalty.
The whole thing rides on the chemistry of its two leads — Mac's gruff bulldozing against Kutcher's likeable cluelessness. It handles race lightly, more for laughs than lectures, turning awkwardness into the engine of the jokes. A good pick for an easygoing comedy about clashing personalities and generations.
