All About You (2001)
8/10
Makes you believe in love again
30 August 2004
I found this at a used DVD store and decided to give it a whirl (hey, I could always sell it on Ebay if I didn't like it!) This was a surprisingly pleasant highlight of my weekend!

The script was good, the acting was solid (despite the bitter comments of the previous reviewer; not Oscar-worthy, but still solid), and the soundtrack was great! There were some acting veterans that nicely rounded out the cast, such as Vanessa Bell Calloway, Lou Myers and the incomparable Debbie Allen. This movie is very relevant to today's dating scene. I would even pay full price for this movie, which is a minor miracle. Rent it and see for yourself (and don't forget to watch the deleted scenes! They provide additional context). This is what what more black films (and Hollywood) should strive to emulate, and it gives another layer of credence to independent film-making.
