Insensitive Pony-Tail Man

It was unrealistic for Steve (Ray Dainton), looking atrocious as a white guy with a PT, to cheat on his wife. The movie opened choppy, it was almost put together more like a play (a morality play at that). The theme music could use some work. The attempts to show the family and love relationships were strained because of a lack of character development. Since it's hard to get into feeling for strangers, it's usually important for a writer/director to flesh out the characters first before they make things happen to them. Sometimes, such development doesn't take much time, but it does take planning.

Overall, good for a cable show, but if you want a show on this theme, go see "30 to life," with Tracy Morgan (funny) and Erika Alexander (hot): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0273048

The person who gave it a 10 probably had a starring role... I see how a person could hate this, but not how one could love it.

Not that bad.

I saw this show on cable today. It is low budget and does rip off "Barbershop" in many ways. Even though there were some shortcomings, It was a gripping story about 4 couples and their relationship problems. There were also some fairly strong performances from some of these lesser known actors and actresses. I was mainly interested in the interracial couple. It was different to see a white man with a black lady. In Hollywood today, that is usually reversed. Being a white male dating a black female myself, I did think it missed the mark on the struggles involved. It is worth a watch if you run through it on cable one night. 6 out 10.
