I have trusted through the years Keven's selectivity of movie scripts he accepts and devotes his efforts to entertain and motivate the viewer to watch and come away feeling a valued lesson was learned.
The beginning scenes seem awkward and confusing to this viewer. I sincerely felt Eloise never captured her roll. She seemed shallow while dealing with the sudden death of her grandmother who died suddenly and tragically.
The court and the basis of plot actually come full circle in the issues brought to trial. Elliott and Rowena seem to want whats best for the child but seem determined to clash in spite of seeming to get along for the most part. Butting heads continually are Keven's vice (liquor) and Reggie's crack addiction.
Many reviews concur with much of what I found missing in this film. Thus it is a worthy film with some rather limiting flaws. Still I enjoyed it most of the time.
