The two leads seemed very immature without an ounce of swag, which is why they had so much difficulty attracting the women they truly wanted.
I did like several of the messages in the film--be your authentic self and if your professional life blows up, pick up the pieces and start over again.
Also the movie tried to hard to be funny and failed. The shame is that the white boss, who was trying to be "down" was the funniest person in the movie.
Oh and Ashley's dad was funny. He was controlling her by threatening to fire her from the family business where she worked as a cashier/handled inventory for their sporting goods shop. I was like huh? She can't get a better job than that without family connections?!
This was a comedy, yet at one point one of the couples had an argument and it seemed way too serious for a comedy. Still overall this was watchable. So giving it five stars.

Ah, yes, the film that propelled TravQue to super stardom, became the first film to gross $1 billion, and stayed on the top of the box office charts for 12 years (only to be kicked off the top by another Black Thomas film, Space Jam 2021).
It is said 'Swag Inc.' is the film with the most continuity errors of all films. Despite this, though, the film was indeed a masterpiece. The sheer scale of the sets and entire production were simply mind blowing! The sinking of the Swag Inc. Was the greatest ship sinking scene EVER and was done with such meticulous detail that one would think they actually really sunk the ship. Off course, that was not the case, though, as it were all (very elaborate) sets, most of which were destroyed during the making of the film.
TravQue made for a very likable hero, quite frankly one a lot of guys can relate to. The young lovers were so different and yet so alike, and their love story was almost endearing. I must admit, the jumping backwards and forwards in time was a bit unnecessary and resulted in an overlong epic. They should only have told the 1912 story. Apart from that, the film was thrilling, exciting and fascinating in every sense of the word!
