Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
View MoreThis movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
View Morefor many family series , "nice" is the best word when you do not know say something more. but in this case the word is more than a form to save appearances. "Reed Between the Lines" is nice because it gives a precise picture of every day reality. this represents its first virtue. the second virtue the use of "spices". humor, jokes, the war between parents and children at different ages, the relations with family, colleagues and the others, the link between husband and wife, the wise choices for create an ordinary universe using the most inspired tools. short, a series about family. remembering many others series about same subject. but, more important, proposing a real useful perspective.
View MoreI have watched every episode of Reed between the lines. I really like the show. It is a positive family sitcom about a family headed by two doctors Dr. Alex Reed is a NYU English professor, and Dr. Carla Reed is a psychologist. They have three children. Carla's twins Keenan and Kaci from a previous marriage, and Alex and Carla have seven-year-old Alexis together. oh, and the family just happens to be black. That will yes, remind you of The Cosby Show. Tracee Ellis Ross and Malcolm Jamal Warner have very good chemistry. The show is very funny. Tracee Ellis Ross is a very good comedic actress. And Malcolm Jamaal Warner is very good as the straight man. Ana Maria Horsford is very funny. Melissa De Sausa is funny. The show is well-written. Another thing I like about Read between the lines is how they are able to squeeze in a positive messages without being preachy. Reed between the lines does have its flaws. For instance, the blended family storyline needs to be explained better. I agree with one of the posters who said they could have found more seasoned child actors to play Keenan Kaci and Alexis. Other than those flaws. If you haven't seen the show, I highly recommend it.
View MoreI was highly disappointed with this show. Everyone keeps saying this brings a "new" or "more appealing" light to African-Americans but I disagree. Shows like, My Wife & Kids, The Bernie Mac Show, Everybody Hates Chris and The Parkers have a positive influence even though they are re-runs. Even very old shows like Good Times and yes The Cosby Show had a positive light but also depicted REALITY! The Reeds are unrelatable, not because they are classy but DRY. They ALL lack a sense of personality and I think that may be because of the writers. Still, I'm a fan of Tracey Ellis-Ross because of her old show Girlfriends but...it has got me thinking was her success based on her acting, the writing or her co-actors? I recommend this show if you need a good nap though!!!
View MoreI've only seen two episodes but plan to watch more! I grew up with the Cosby show and have lamented the lack of positive images of blacks on TV since it went off the air. People should really give it a try. It's subtle, but fun. I know I'll grow to love it even more! Good start and nice to see our favorite black stars get cameos! I had grown weary of the offerings on network TV, especially since we have such a beautiful black family in the white house. I think now there will be more attempts at shows like this. Before it was reincarnated as the CW, WB had some nice shows: Girfriends, Half and Half, and One on One... My kids and I enjoyed the lineup! The writing was clever and the acting superb. We've missed those shows. Well done BET!
