 |  | Wanted to love this movie but... |  |
...the best I can bring is applause for the casting and acting, which are both good to excellent. The script is a train wreck, racked by redundancies, cliches, and dialogue that doesn't ring true, like that of the older cast members talking "street" to the young Ahmad. Way too many loose ends are left dangling. Where realism should happen (the dialogue, or the contrived meeting in the print shop cafeteria), there's melodrama and/or predictability. Where a bit more "Hollywood" might have been in order (more resolution re: the marriage of the Vanessa Williams character, what happens to her husband's band, and making some of Ahmad's dialogue more audible) we're left wondering. I ended up with indigestion.
May 9, 2008This is a very heart warming story of family, and strenghth.
I can not watch this without tearing up, and laughing. I think it
portrays every family.
January 23, 2008Classic movie showing family ups and downs. A few sceens may limit young viewers (under 13).
January 10, 2008You can not go wrong with this movie. It's about love, and how families should stick together and work things out. When you get together and stay close, it is hard for and outsider to turn you aginst your own family. For you have spent so much time with them, you know what they will and wont do. Learn to be close to your family members, except them for who they are. God didnt make us alike. What would a world really be if we where all alike? (ROBOT)
