Fantastic!
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
View MoreThe movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
View MoreJust caught this on local TV here and I had no idea this film ever existed. It's funny, it's human, it's warm, it's truthful but it's hopeful. I may be miles removed from the demographics pictured here but I remember a certain funeral in my own family that had all the hallmarks of this one...As far as the storytelling is concerned, this film/script/play has all the intricacies and finely observed and rendered detail that makes the films of Marcel Pagnol about the life of Southern Frenchmen so universal yesterday, today and tomorrow, all around the world.Fine ensemble cast where none of the stars detract from each other. A class act all the way.
View MoreKingdom Come is a film that you can watch with your family and enjoy. The cast are all great in this film and the direction by Doug McHerny is good as always. LL Cool J does very good in his lead role as does Toni Braxton in her first role. All in all a good film.
View MoreOne of the worst movie's ever and a waste of a talented cast with Devine and Smith being the worst. Their constant yelling and schilling worked on my last nerve. Whoopi acted as if she was embarassed to be in this piece of crap. And the ending was just too neat for my taste. Don't waste your time.
View MoreThis movie has good intentions, but falls a little short due to the execution of the plot. I'm not going to go into the whole storyline, as by now you probably already know. What I do want to say is it's good to have a decent black movie make it to the theater and do fairly well. Besides Soul Food, this is the only other feel good black family movie that has been released in the last 5 years. It's a shame it didn't do that well at the box office. It could be because of the nature of the film or the lackluster storyline. Whatever the case may be, it was worth watching at least once. There are some very funny parts in this film and the acting was decent. I was surprised to see Toni Braxton in this film. She actually did a pretty good job. LL Cool J needs to find his nitch. I think he's still looking for it. I liked him in Deep Blue Sea, but Rollerball was a mess. Whoopie only had a small part, but she really helped the movie along. Overall I give it 6 out of 10.
