Warning... lots of spoilers lie ahead...

Big Momma's House is a rip-off of Kindergarden Cop. It's the same general idea: an unlikely detective, with zero sensibilities, goes undercover by disguising himself as something he is definitely not (in this case, a fat woman) in order to find out where the ex-wife of a burglar hid the money of a heist (by now you should see there are lots of similarities in the script). He discovers that the best way to do it is by befriending the son of the woman (sounds familiar? keep reading!). And then, the detective falls for the woman. AND THEN, the ex-husband appears in the scene and gets the kid... AND THEN... well, by now you get the picture.

I can't believe they got away by stealing almost scene by scene Kindergarden Cop (a nice film, not excellent but can be watched). Besides, the dull bathroom humour is just that, dull. Boring film from start to finish. Skip it.
