BLAM!
You have Undercover Brother!
A strong cast of comedy veterans led by Eddie Griffin, Dave Chappelle, Chris Kattan and Neil Patrick Harris carry this film that spoofs hard on the James Bond franchise.
(look for the cameo from James Brown)
Griffin plays the title character and while I am a fan of his work, as funny as he is, this is not the reason I decided to watch this movie.
The reason was the fight between two of the female characters, Sistah Girl played by Aunjanue Ellis and White She-Devil played by Denise Richards.

Undercover Brother is a freelance agent who is constantly battling The Man.
After stumbling onto a female agent for the B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D. called Sistah Girl, the Brother is recruited to try to infiltrate The Man’s network. When The Man’s main agent, Mr. Lackey (Kattan) discovers they have a mole in their network, he sends“the black man’s Kryptonite” on Brother, the White She-Devil.
At one point during the film, the White She-Devil and her lackeys attack Undercover Brother and Sistah Girl. While Brother handles the lackeys, Sistah Girl and White She-Devil have it out in a martial arts fight that, at first, has some bite.
It soon descends into silliness and a girl-girl "touchy feely" shower scene played for Griffin’s and the lackey’s enjoyment.
While there is no clear nudity, a slicked down Denise, should be enough to start your mind and pulse racing. Meow!
Still, seeing the fight, I wondered who would come out on top!
At the time I first saw the movie, I assumed that Aunjanue would win hands down. However, after some of the revelations about Denise following her split from Charlie Sheen, and subsequent canoodling with Heather Locklear’s husband Richie Sambora, in real life, now I’m not so sure!
My opinion has turned!
Now, I think Denise may actually be quite adept at any catfight and seems to possess the ‘win-at-any-cost’ mentality needed in such battles.
But, I must divide reality and TV!
In any case, this catfight was a tad of a disappointment, but the girls who participated, are, ANYTHING, but! Denise is in her prime, and a candidate for our "Catfight Report Hall of Fame", while Aunjanue needs some more movie face time to be considered.
Folks, go ahead and check this one out!
