Saw it yesterday, if your a fan of the original movie then you are really going to enjoy this one. It's a good ending to wrap up the stories for all the characters and it was very entertaining. However it reminded me a little TOO MUCH like Why Did I Get Married and was a little too over dramatic in certain scenes :yeshrug:

Who else :pachaha: seeing the bootleg jerseys they had for the Giants and Falcons?

Oh yeah but Nia Long and Sanaa Lathan :wow:..and they are in their 40's breh! :wow:

To think that even though Thor is in its 2nd week, that this film with its exclusively all-black cast (minus one who's role was small to begin with), written and directed by a black man, and targeted exclusively to a black audience AND it being R-rated is NECK & NECK in topping the box office is f*cking impressive!

My wife was crying like she does on every movie with any kind of sad stuff happening in it.

I knew something bad was going to happen though, cause someone on my Facebook feed mentioned it being really sad. My wife didn't have a clue though... :heh:

She thought it was just gonna be a funny family movie, had her in there like it was a funeral.

:dead:

Saw this last night, and I enjoyed, it's the perfect kind of holiday movie, it's light but with enough poignancy to resonate with you, and remind you about family, religion, faith, whatever.....lets be clear though, these were never well written movies, and they aren't any better now, an array of contrivances litter the screenplay, but the characters are well acted and grounded enough to sell it. The dialogue isn't sharp enough, and it veers uncomfortably between parody and drama, and an unfortunate tendency to inject somewhat insulting and embarassing cliches....and Taye Diggs has never been a good actor, and he stumbles all over this movie... and Morris Chestnutt of all people outshines him with embarrassing ease, which says it all. Chestnutt delivers a restrained, impassioned performance, aside from the gratuitous shirtless shots.

The female characters are at times pushed to the point of caricature, without getting to feel like real characters..and yes, as I said they have never been well written, or scripted, it's strengths lay in the characters, their feelings, it's sincerity, and it's glossy and well directed approach to it's material, but due to it's running time, and the serious themes throughout, I'm not sure the movie earns it's way to those subjects. To have a certain incident take place 3 days after Christmas was a little much to believe, and felt tacked on...Terrance Howard and all the supporting actors were great, though Harold character never really finds his ground, never really has either...the point is in spite of these flaws it's an enjoyable, even emotional holiday movie...

Liked the movie, cant wait for part 3. The last 30 minutes had my eyes watery. There was only about 20 people in the theater but I went to a 11pm showing at a nit hugely popular theater in town
