Man if they market this right this movie could make a ton of money. It has that "bodyguard" feel to it. I wonder if they will invest into making an official soundtrack?

market it to the beyonce demographic. this the positive black man saving a black woman tale they been waiting on.

Your right. See a song from Beyonce on the official soundtrack would be the perfect way to market this. Back in the 90's movie execs dealing with movies aimed at african americans knew things like that and use to invest into making soundtracks.

most big budget movies these days dont even have soundtracks I mean when was the last time you saw a music video with film clips in it.. Internet piracy has seen to all that

that she is, very underated.. Really want her to blow. Thandie newton never had the talent to supplant halle as the chosen mixed race girl, this broad does
I like it. I don't care for romantic movies at all but this was refreshing to see. Not a slave movie, not a 'butler/the help' movie, not a 'not all white people are bad see how this white guy helps the poor black guy overcome all the bad white people' autobiography. And not one of those polarizing tyler perry plots or over the top kevin hart ones. Seems simple and fairly genuine.
this shyt is corny as fukk tho... like i get it.. i really do.. we need more real black movies... but this is just some straight to dvd trash... come correct yall
...compared to what? Aren't most love stories pretty corny? If "Twilight" can make all that bread, we can take a chick on a date to see this and roast it after.
