I was glad to see the movie find its way to the screen, but I thought that it didn't develop the characters enough (why does Tommi turn into the type of exec. producer she hated in her last gig?; who James really was as a regular person then famous actor), nor did certain subplots make much sense (James' babymama's boyfriend being the catalyst for the dramatic end of the TV series). On my Blackpride-O-Metor, I would say this gets a 6.4 out of 10.
Can I just say though, I love Nicole Ari Parker? Her acting was great in this movie, and I really like her in Soul Food; she balances my disgust with Vanessa Williams on a weekly basis.
