Critics Consensus: Unnecessary, unfunny, and generally unwelcome, Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son offers more of the same for fans of Martin Lawrence's perplexingly popular series.

Big Momma's 3 isn't offensive. It isn't an unkind portrayal of obesity and its themes are light and carefree. But it's still dreadfully unfunny.

The physical slapstick has grown tired and, strangely enough, Lawrence himself even looks a bit tired here.

The father/stepson angle applies a much-needed Heimlich maneuver to a series that was choking, but it's not enough.

It's frighteningly impressive that a one-note gag has spawned three dreadful films and hundreds of millions of dollars in box office receipts. Wherever will they go next? Big Mommas 3D?

Looking back, it's strange to remember that the first two movies were both hits, and that Paul Giamatti and Terrence Howard even saw enough in the premise to sign up for the original. At this point, it's really all just flab.
