    this Christmas

    by anneishab

    I liked the movie. It was a great movie to take the family. I enjoyed seeing african american actors in something besides a movies with drugs, sex, and violence. I would recommend and already have the movie to everyone I know.

    Review not comment

    by armyjeep

    I'm so tired of people who put reviews in here when all they say is, the movie will be good, or I like Chris Brown. It's a review! Go see the movie and THEN give your comments. That's what this is for to help others. I went to see this based on all the "Must Go" comments. I say go see it. But it was not the best movie of the year or one of the movies I'd pay to see 2 or 3 times. Yes, it's good and entertaining, and the cast was excellent. If you get a chance to see it, do go, but it will be a DVD favorite at the Holiday season for sure.

    A Family affair

    by lionsshare2

    Very well done, took my family to see this wonderful, funny, at times touching movie about a black family not much unlike my own. Every family has it's ups & downs, however to see finally see Black folk in a positive movie, no gangs, no killing, none of the negetives usually portrayed in the media. I hope to see more films like this one year round, because family is an all year event. Everyone should go enjoy this film, because there's something for everyone in it, no matter what your persuasion. In a word - MORE.
    Keep it coming
