Boyz 'N the Hood 116 reviews
Hudhail Al-Amir, Lloyd Avery II
Sony Pictures, 1998
Which Path Would You Take?
Boyz N The Hood is considered by many as the definitive "Hood" movie and is even more astounding to learn that Writer & Director John Singleton was only 23 when this was released. The greatest aspect of this movie is that it's a film about acceptance when focusing around the main character Tré. He's a representative for those of us who have all told lies about our lives simply to fit in with the ...

Meet the Robinsons [Blu-ray] 162 reviews
Daniel Hansen, Jordan Fry
Walt Disney Home Entertainment, 2007
Fantastic Family Movie
I bought this movie on a whim and wasn't really looking for it being very good due to the trailers I'd seen. It just looked strange and plotless from the impression I got from the trailer. I was very pleasantly surprised when I watch this movie! The music is great, Danny Elfman does a great job and brings out a lot of emotion with the music, but this story isn't music dependent it just adds to ...

The Score 181 reviews
Angela Bassett, Marlon Brando
Paramount, 2001
The score...
I love this movie. I must confess that the reason is the ending. It isa plain and simple burgular movie. One plan, one betrayal, one revenge, sweet revenge! Recommend for adults only. There is a bit of foul language. Edward Norton is awesome in this movie.

Jodie Foster, Matthew McConaughey
Warner Home Video, 1997
I Love This Movie!!!
I have always been a science buff and a science fiction fan. This movie was wonderful. I think it is not far off to what our reaction would be if we were contacted by others in the galaxy. Jodie Foster was wonderful as Ellie Arraway and the spirit of the book was carried over into the film. The film does take some liberties with characters and what occured in the book but that was only to make it ...

What's Love Got To Do With It?72 reviews

Walt Disney Video, 1999
Tina Turner Rocks!
I enjoyed watching this film as it gave me the insight to one of my favorite legends. Due to what Tina has endured, it was impossible to watch it a second time. However, this will be in one of my all time favorites, as it had a happy ending! Isn't that why we all go to the movies?! Thank you.

Malcolm X148 reviews
Angela Bassett, O.L. Duke
Warner Home Video, 2000
Man of Vision Struck Down 20th Century
I was not an avid follower of this man, but some of his ideals should have been scrutinized for a better community amongst the people mainly African Americans.
He was a man of integrity especially with family life. His followers were not as strong minded as he just as those in MLK's time. Those supposed followers reacted to certain aspects of their ideas I believe, just to announce that ...

The Rosa Parks Story14 reviews
Angela Bassett, Peter Francis James
Xenon, 2003
Something to Share
Besides the history of the bus incident, I didn't know much about Rosa Parks. This story delves into how the conflict between Rosa fighting with the NAACP affected her family. Although some may find it to be a borderline story about relationships, I liked the story for that exact reason. It gave me a different view of how to look at a political situation that can hinder the people around you (for ...

Mr. 3000 is a film about a former baseball player named Stan Ross who was a very good player....AND KNEW IT! His stats was only equaled by his arrogance and flagrant disrespect for the fans, the team that he played for and his fellow baseball players with the exception of his sidekick Bocca.

Waiting to Exhale53 reviews
Whitney Houston, Angela Bassett
20th Century Fox, 2001
"I closed my eyes and I exhaled."
"Waiting to Exhale" is a film that takes you on a powerful and heartfelt excursion with four women: Bernie, Savannah, Robin and Gloria. Each woman experiences her share of problems with the opposite sex, but through it all, they depend heavily on one another to help them through the most bleak of times. What has proven to be the most captivating story is that of Bernie (Angela Bassett did an ...
