MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

blessedcjc-1 This movie was awful, the story-line was not developed or explained until the end. The cops only appeared in the first half when he shoots the man in Rose's office, after that, they kill a police officer and her sister and no one shows up as they ride into the sunset. Then the supposed twist comes up when she figures out he is the killer and suddenly he is no longer a crack shot but some inept buffoon who doesn't know how to aim. And she kills him, what will she do next, bury him in the fields. NO emotion, no police, just vengeance; for what he was protecting her. NO sense, too cheesy.

ikeybabe Wow, this movie was shockingly bad - so very, very bad! There were some quality actors here - folks who obviously participated in this film as a favor to someone (either that or they were being blackmailed). *Spoiler Alert* The script was chock-full of holes: a convicted felon (Grant killed 3 men right?) can not legally have a firearm, cops don't let civilians simply walk into a crime scene, there is absolutely zero chance the dude in the woods had the capabilities to make fake IDs and passports, when Grant and Rose finally find the man who disappeared (and he just happens to walk into a busy restaurant/bar) the logical step is to brawl with him, of course, and after shooting and killing a business woman and a cop there is absolutely zero chance you get to climb into your car and go home. The whole script was ridiculous and implausible. And, the acting was so awful - the wife of the missing man, the secretary in Rose's office, the bartender. The only positive thing I can say about this film is that the cinematography was well done and the music that played as the end credits rolled was cool.

butafallingleaf I expected more from Isaiah Washington. This review is in no way a disparagement towards him, it wasn't his choice to be casted alongside an overly emotional actress. The quality of the overly dramatic performance of his counterpart is what completely ruined the movie. It may have been a good movie, but it was as if they intended to make it with an other side of the tracks kind of undertone; a love story of a mysterious clairvoyant and a troubled, complicated convict. No and no. None of that computed. Lisa Anderson's performance was a disappointment and a reason to not even watch this film. She may be pretty, but she is way too much. Even for a clairvoyant, way, way too much. I give it a 3/10 because there are more than likely other films that are worse than this one, but not many.

wdl-07455 I kept feeling the script was a collection of ideas for a script that hurriedly got forwarded as a movie. Like writing a letter and not proof- reading it. I could see some great potential in the story and at times I started to get interested then the script meandered off or came to a dead end. The actors were certainly capable of doing it better but the director seemed to know more about what was going on - in his own mind - but failed to tell the story with his chosen medium. Maybe writing and directing the same movie can get in the way of completeness of the film. Not being from US of A I was unsure of the heavy bias of black people in the scenes - is this the norm for that part of the world - are things really that segregated. Not recommended - even if it's free...
