A Womderful Movie!, 11 June 2008
10/10
Author: paasl2003

I love this movie. It is beautifully shot, with great acting. It is a really moving story. You don't often see urban (or black-oriented) movies done without the characters being stereotypes. Thank God for this one showing we are not stereotypes and for having real characters. And real good looking ones to boot.

All the characters are real to me. I have to say I particularly like the supporting character Shawn. She stole the show in her scenes. But I found myself getting into all the characters.

This movie may not reach certain people who won't get it. But I have a feeling fans of the urban genre will love it. I will be recommending it to all my friends.
