I also thought that it was better than the Brothers. I think it's because I liked the actors in this movie better.
Another funny thing to me, without spoiling the plot, were the faces and gestures that Gabrielle was making when she was directing the choir.

I just saw it today and it was really good. The part that stuck out in my mind was big ass LL riding that horse...a horse on top of a horse. LOL The gay hairdresser reminds me of my friend who lives downstairs.

I wish there was a sideways thumb....
Well, I'll be the first to go out on a limb here...... I kinda didn't like the movie. I mean, it was mediocre at best. I think Gabrielle Union and LL were the only two with any sort of acting abilities in the entire movie. Everybody else sucked. Actually, all three of the husbands/boyfriends got on my nerves throughout. There wasn't a funny line between them. And Kym Whitley ..... I won't even go any further. Also, there were just too many unbelievable/unexplainable/stupid moments (and I'm not even talking about the ending). So, I say go see this movie if you just want to support black films. Otherwise, save your money.

Yes, the minister had me cracking up. No she did look like that was something she would say. Didn't she play Bill Bellamy's mother in The Brothers?
The brother-in-law and those beans were over the top! He was acting like a fool!

I have been using my newfound info this week as I teach Shakespeare.  My kids are like "Ooooooooooo then maybe I will read that" and OTHELLO since they liked O.

I agree with you about Gabrielle and LL being the only two in the movie with acting abilities. But I am glad that I did not leave the movie with my head in my hands like some past movies. I will also give this movie a sideways thumb or as I like to say, "Go to the Matinee, don't pay full price."

Deliver Us From Eva
I'm going to have to go with Bamboozled on this one. I thought the movie was alright, but it wasn't nearly what I was hoping for. The adds seemed like it would be excellent, but it was a little too cheezy. I felt I couldn't really relate. I would suggest either waiting for it to hit Blockbuster, or going to a Matinee.

The movie was good.
What was up with the intro? They should have practiced that more.
Did anyone notice Duane Martin's FOOT?!?!?!? He needs surgery!
The joke about Eva and the cross chain she was given had me ROTFLMAO. She was straight wicked.
What happened at the end when he came to Chicago? Some so and so's decided they wanted to argue about hitting someone's seat.  Why wait until the end of the show to vent your frustrtaions?  Needless to say, we reported the incident to management and got a free pass for another flick.
Still, I don't know what was said. All I know is that they rode away.

I have to agree with mediocre decisions. My favorite person was the gay guy in the shop...my opinions have already been voiced.

My sister has the bootleg tape and I decided to watch it a few weeks ago when I was bored out of my mind and didn't wanna hear my father play his music. I liked it. I was happy when Eva decided to pursue her dream job, but the ending was too cliche-ish to me. But to each his/her own.
