Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins (2008) - Movie Synopsis & Plot

Martin Lawrence stars as talk-show sensation Dr. RJ Stevens, who has shirked his simple Southern past and the awkward boy he used to be to dispense "you can do it" advice to millions of adoring fans. With a reality-series star on his arm and loads of cash in his pocket, there's nothing he feels he hasn't achieved.

When his parents request that he come home for their 50th wedding anniversary, RJ packs up his 10-year-old son and spoiled princess of a fiancée and heads back to his sleepy, Southern hometown. Ready to impress his down home kin with how much he's changed, RJ will prove he's not the walking disaster they used to pick on. At least, that's the plan...

But as his crazy, lovable family reminds RJ of the kid he once was and the big-ego'd adult he has become, this superstar will take a hard look at the life he is living. Roscoe Junior might've felt teased, second best and laughed at as a child, but the love from home could be turning Dr. RJ into a better man.
