Truly Dreadful Film

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Bull...I am so tired of people thinking and acting like they have a Right to screw their marriage vows. If you're being abused leave. Do Not cheat first then talk about you need to find yourself later. It's Bs. This film teaches our young women how not to handle problems. So Much wrong with this chick. Great she gets help at the end, but I wish People knew cursing doesn't make you strong. If that's where your Confidence lies and where you draw your power you are still weak. Strong would be not screwing around on your husband. Strong is finding Other ways to express yourself that doesn't take away your honor and Intelligence...On another note and as always god is blamed in some form or another. Funny,in her eyes her mom was wrong, then the bible was wrong. Yeah, Her mom should have left, should have taught her the bible says god Will not tolerate ignorance (ex:1 staying in an abusive marriage. 2 Marrying a man who you know good and freaking well was abusive before You freaking got married) and that he has peaceful thoughts of us not Of evil. Fine. Her mom was wrong on some level for setting a terrible Example, but take that arrogance about the bible being wrong somewhere Else. It's not until the end she realizes her behind was the one wrong. I Hate that this trifling female character didn't even apologize to her Mom or rectify in any way her accusation against the bible.Case and point this film advocates arrogance and masks it as confidence And strength. It confuses young people, young women especially and Coerces them to think the only way they can be heard is by finding Another man who will screw around with them, hopefully fall in love With them, then speak for them. Love is great, but this chick was Freaking married!! This film teaches that we can all do what the heck We want and it will all work out. It also teaches the only voice she Had was what??? Loud and belligerent. But they (the writer and Characters) are so deep, confident, and empowered kinda went over their own heads on this one as with so many other films targeted at us by us...At the beginning and end of most black poetry it's always sexual and misguided anti biblical standard undertones. If you don't like the word or don't believe it fine, leave him out of your foolishness, but don't take shots at him and think everybody is going to eat that mess up. Some of our black people are too busy praising ancestors and rebelling against what they call the white man's god to realize the white man nor your ancestors have a thing to do with where you end up when it's all over.Losing the war trying to fight battles not knowing or acknowledging who the real enemy is...Only positive thing I have to say is I loved the fact that she was physically a very beautiful chocolate skinned woman. Too often we are made to believe it's too difficult or controversial to film women of her color/complexion in mainstream Hollywood though it's not mainstream, you clearly see that it's a beautiful thing. She glows.

I'm going to be honest the only reason I looked at the movie because of Mr. Omari. I have never heard of this movie. I was just browsing through because I had nothing else to do. And I saw Mr. Omari's face. The movie ended up being a 10 for me. I'm not a person that is into spoken word but guess what I think I'm going to attend some open mic nights (spoken word). Everyone played their parts to the fullest and I loved it. I'm glad things ended up the way they did. Ladies, you know what i change that ALL people need to remember. Theirs always someone that'll love you more and much better than that abusive partner in heir lives. LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT! There's nothing left for me to say. But this is a great movie by all means. Everybody should view it and tell the next person about it so they can view this movie as well.

I truly wish it hadn't ended. It was so invoking and real. I felt like it was a modern day "Love Jones (which happens to be one of my favorite movies... ever!!) The main characters were real life, everyday people. They were people that you know, friends, and family members. The might actually be you. They didn't paint fairy tale images, they gave you raw reality. Some good, some bad, and some ugly.It was such a sexy story line. And I love a story that doesn't give you the ending that you expected. I felt in love at times. When I can feel as the actors feel, that's always indicative to me of a great story. I would love to see more of this movies writers and producers. I guess I am a sucker for poetry, sex, love, hate, fighting, drama, sadness, and truth. Things Never Said will take you on that roller coaster ride that you've missed as a child. Real Housewives of Atlanta, has nothing on this movie. Definitely don't need to wait 13 episodes to get some juice. One thing that I would have liked is a stronger, more intense ending, but it was good either way.

Great movie. Most obviously compared to "Love Jones" (a classic in its own right), but so much deeper. Yes, there is love. Yes, there is poetry. But there is so much more.I read another review of this movie and agree wholeheartedly. I too am dealing/have dealt with issues that are at the core of this movie. This movie has helped me get a sense of understanding about myself and past relationships. This movie is therapeutic.Why have I not heard of this movie before? Why does one have to stumble across such a great work of art? I'm asking myself - am I over-rating this movie? I think not.
