  • Oh No!

    No Way

    by Mizz Nikki

    BET could have done better than this. I just knew this movie was going to be great....you looked at the cast, they played my favorite Brandy song during the commercial (which I never heard once in the movie) and it looked moving. I was totally bored and about to fall asleep. I stayed awake in hopes that around the corner the movie would get better. It didn't. This was a waste of my money. This isn't even something to buy on DVD. And that's sad because had the movie been developed a bit more, it would have and could have went somewhere.

    Terrible...

    by tsolomon75

    This movie was a waste of money. The acting was horrible... too many celebrities in one movie; and not one good performance. This movie does not come recommended... not even as a Netflix. I try and support almost every black film that comes out... but, this movie put me to sleep and I was ready to walk out, until my hubby said, you paid for it, you might as well stay... it was so boring. Should've been an hour Lifetime movie.

    I love to support black, but this one was a sleeper...literally. I could barely keep my eyes open. The soundtrack was good and the actors were good, but the script sucked. Excuse my frankness. You may enjoy it if you like lengthy dialogue that's all over the place and too many scene changes that leave you to draw your own conclusions. One plus--Billy Dee is still fine as ever.
