Strength of a Woman (2023)
Decent follow-up to Real Love
I was blown away by the characters Kendra and Ben in Real Love and looked forward to what would happen in their lives, therefore I watched this movie with a lot of anticipation.
In terms of quality, it was pretty good and fairly believable however to be fair, it was not as good as the Real Love storyline. Don't get me wrong though, I enjoyed it pretty much although the outcome was a bit too predictable. The two movies though does show how choices can affect one's life and there was more than enough of this that is very comparable to real life situations. Loved the fact that there was a wholesome ending and both the main characters continued with good quality acting. To Mary J Blige...you've set the bar pretty high...very impressive! I look forward to more of this.
Real Love (2023)
Pleasantly surprised
Just finished watching this movie and had no expectations prior but this was a real love story...pretty good and pretty deep at times. The storyline was fair but it was the acting of the main characters that made this movie. Ajioni as Kendra was awesome and very believable and engaging in her role especially when she was at her lowest point portraying a victim of sexual assault. D'Arvinchi grew into his role and became a stronger character fairly quickly into the movie. I liked that I did not want the movie to end the way I did..hoping for the best outcome for the leading pair and watching the last part with a sinking feeling until I saw that there would be a continuation...I can't actually wait...I have have not said that about a movie for a long time...
