Hardly made it through the first 30 minutes or so. I'm giving the film two stars because I did like Jackée Harry as the mother. I haven't seen her, however, since the 1980s, so couldn't figure out
who she was at first, even though I saw her last week on an old "Amen" episode.
Overall, this movie was a waste of time, which is why I gave it so little time to prove itself watchable. Protagonist Hope is as unlikable as can be. Her sister Cherish even more so. Fake fiance Jesse is too timid. The absolute worst character, however, was Hope's minister father.
Obviously, the makers of the movie didn't want him to seem like all the other minister fathers in movies like this one. He is an absolute wacko, and not an amusing one. Plus, they kept doing close-ups of his menacing face. That was it for me. Time to find something else to watch. Bye, Jackée, it was nice to see you again.
