The Janky Promoters, Good (Not Great) Reviews Regional
The Janky Promoters played in regional release to good not great reviews. • Joe Leydon wrote in Daily Variety, "A genially slapdash, brazenly non-PC comedy in the tradition of Ice Cube's 'Friday' franchise, 'Promoters' overall is no worse, and often slightly better... Helmer Marcus Raboy ('Friday After Next') keeps the pace relaxed without undue dawdling." More Reviews Below...
