erdene c what a beautifully shot film Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Munkhjargal A this movie was about love. The film was able to show how a long distance relationship passes through the two of them, who had a lot of age difference.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Angela Bassett, Whoopi Goldberg, Regina King, and Taye Diggs star in a romantic drama based on the novel by Terry McMillan Bassett plays Stella and she'll need to find her groove again Stella used to be married but got divorced and she has her son Her friend, Delilah urges her to find a man to feel happy and complete But Stella is perfectly content being a working woman stock broker She then takes a trip to Jamaica There she meets an islander named Winston Shakespeare They fall in love but can Stella really find passion and happiness? Responsibilities and companionship are what Stella wrestles with and with Winston pointing out her flaws of always making a plan of her own to course through life The movie acts as a good social commentary and shows an all-black cast can carry a film appealing to a wider audience It’s very romantic, funny, and Bassett and Diggs work so well together Good free escapism featuring Jamaica as a breathtaking backdrop even if the main character doesn’t have too much of a challenge to face when finding her passions Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/29/23 Full Review Victoria For someone who is supposedly trying to get her groove back, Stella sure is stiff. The movie drags on without much happening. The flirting is dry, no real chemistry but after a pajama party she decides she wants to sleep with him then gets mad when he gets a job and has to work? After one night you're that attached?? Then she gets fired and goes back to Jamaica because he called? Then introduces him to her son??? He quits his job to spend time with her and is so in love he introduces her to his parents. The problem is we don't see any courtship to explain why they're so attached and when they're together they don't seem to have much fun. Stella never seems to lighten up, stays stiff, always has an "over it" attitude but supposedly she's happy? They both seem solemn most of the time. Neither has much of a personality. Oh and there's a depressing scene where her best friend doesn't tell her she's dying and then bam she's at her funeral. Is this supposed to be a feel good movie? It's not hot. It's not even lukewarm. It's boring and kinda of sad. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
