That was an excellent one.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I can't understand why everyone is hating on this movie because its not supposed to be taken so seriously. Im watching this movie for the second time and I thought hey! this movie is pretty good! Vivica Fox and Gabrielle Union are so beautiful and are very entertaining! I like how Vivica talks to the camera and i feel that is what makes it different from a lot of other romantic comedies and makes it more personal. I'ma give this movie a break and give it a 8/10 because its not meant to be a serious drama or anything. Some people just need to learn how to watch different types of movies and enjoy them, from Star Wars to Pulp Fiction to Finding Nemo and to something like this! :)

Just wanted to say that I think that a lot of viewers are really hard on this fun romp between African-American Professionals. You see, if you don't like it, you probably can't relate to relationships, or African-Americans. If you are African-American and you don't like it, well, all I can say is that you must be young. Anyone over the age of 35, would probably enjoy this light-hearted matching of wits between Shante'(Vivica Fox) and Keith (Morris Chestnut). The reason that age comes into view, is because growing up in the 60's, there were plenty of light-hearted romance comedies to enjoy. With one exception. You didn't see African-Americans in those movies. In the 70's, people like Richard Pryor provided us with plenty of funny movies, along with Veteran's such as Bill Cosby and Sidney Poitier. Romance comedies never quite made an impact within our community. And the love stories that did make it, such as "Melinda" starring Richard Roundtree and Vonette McGee, were dubbed blaxploitation movies and not given the exposure that movies garner today. I enjoy African-American films that are light-hearted, because the urban experience is often depicted as violent, drug-related, and unintelligent. We have plenty of movies for our children to see that offer no intelligent plot, and continue to perpuate stereotypes that we have been trying to tear down forever. Seeing African-American professionals deal with some of the challenges of nurturing a relationship in the 2000's was a lot of fun. That is, if you are looking for a little break from the shoot 'em up, drug-smoking, genre's. Women do have a tendency to expect certain things from men, and vice versa. Any game can be taken too far, which is what the movie depicts. No, it couldn't and should not have been an "Academy Award Nominee" by no stretch of the imagination, but it is highly entertaining and does have it's comedic moments. When movies are being made with names like Dumb and Dumber, and How High? I think I'll keep my viewing priorities straight and preference a movie like this over them.

Some may think this movie is like another male bashing movie. But it bashes males and females, when love turns into a battle of the sexes. The story starts with Shante Smith(Vivica A. Fox) a beautiful advertising executive who feels she has the perfect life and perfect boyfriend named Keith Fenton(Morris Chestnut) a handsome Lawyer. Shante becomes the envy of her friends. Until one night, while out with her girlfriends, Shante catches Keith dancing with another women. Keith working late, and was invited to go out to eat by a co worker, who just happened to be an attractive female. Although Keith claims nothing happened and in a way pleads for forgiviness. Shante starts punishing him with a 10 day plan, to get him back in line. For a while her plan is working. Then her plan starts going awry, when Keith starts turning the tables, Thanks to his friend Tony(Anthony Anderson) who helps Keith see right through her plans. A fun romantic comedy, Vivica A. Fox and Morris Chestnut give charming performances, but its Anthony Anderson who steals the picture has Tony, who seems to know more about women then Morris Chestnut's character. He has the funniest one liners in this film. Gabrielle Union is also good has Connie,the rumored tramp.

of the main character constantly talking to the camera. I thought this was fairly good and funny. I liked Shante's so called rules to getting your man back after breaking up. Some of them seem quite true. FINAL VERDICT: Worth watching if you can catch it on cable. I got a couple of laughs out of it.
