This film is based around three women in Dallas, Texas, who face certain challenges in their life. The film explores their thoughts, feelings, and response to these challenges. It mixes a docudrama approach with a 'home movie feel' that attempts to impart a sense of realism to the action that is unfolding. Unfortunately, the resulting product is poor and lacks any real sense of drama. The main characters have no real depth and I felt no connection with them - I didn't really care about what was supposed to be going on in their life because it did not feel at all real. There did not appear to be a script, perhaps it grew out of a series of workshops with the actors, but if it did the director / writer / producer (the fact that Carl Jackson seems to do everything highlights what is, perhaps, the root cause of the problem) needed to spend a lot more time developing the poor dialogue and the lack of any real drama. It takes over an hour before it gets to the main thrust of the film as advertised - the 10 commandments - and by that point it is really hard to find a point to carry on watching. Bad script, badly shot, and complete lack of story. Very superficial treatment of what could have been an interesting idea.
