[The ensemble's] grounded portrayals make the stakes of The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat feel real, and the inevitable outcome seem earned; they anchor a film that might otherwise feel too wispy.

The film unravels so quickly that it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly where this initially enjoyable film flew off the rails.

The story is told told in an unabashedly heartfelt fashion with a screenplay by (under a pseudonym) Gina Prince-Bythewood and director Tina Mabry, putting the melodrama in the context of enduring, unconditional friendship over the decades.

For all of the references to racism and other social ills, the problems often feel weirdly compartmentalized; the outside world barely feels like it exists at all.

I absolutely enjoyed this movie, I never write reviews, but I laughed and cried multiple times. We need more movies like this, the critics as usual got the rating wrong. 10/10 and I’m recommending to friends and family.

Loved this movie. Especially the ending. I have watched so many movies on streaming platforms where they lack substance and an adequate ending. This movie provides closure and hope, just what is needed. Bravo to the writers, producers, director, and actors.
