I'm looking forward to watching it because I've been waiting to see Janet be in a movie for years. Is she the best actress? Far from it, but I'm always interested in whatever she does, so I just may like the film. The plot looks good anyways, I hope it does well. | |

I guess I'm more than a little biased because I hate Tyler Perry movies and plays. If Janet gets good buzz in the movie, then I will probably see it. | |

I can't imagine this movie doing good... and IM tired of Tyler Perry... why does he always have to have someone in church or use gospel songs in his movies... This movie does not really seem interesting.. and janet should not have done this... One last thing.. why does Tyler Perry have to star in every movie that he makes... he is just as bad as Spike Lee [Edited 8/14/07 12:05pm] That's because the Church goers is his audience... All of his movies were stage plays (with the exception of Daddy's Little Girls)that travel from city to city and the people who go see these plays are usually church going people.. and all of his Movies has been successful... Doesn't cost that much to make and I'd imagine that's why he's on his 4th movie now. [Edited 8/14/07 12:21pm] | |

And with a 5th one in the works if I'm not mistaken?
I like that she's a part of an ensemble cast. That may give her a bit more to work with and also may add to her not standing out as Janet. I prefer it over her and Eddie Murphy x 10. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

Lothan said: sosgemini said: but she can act...she was great in good times, fame and different strokes and received a lot of kudos for her performance in Poetic Justice. I know you have a right to say she can't act but I tend to respect more..Expeciually when Roger Ebert says someone carries a movie..and Siskel didn't even disagree...although he did say Tupak was the one who stole the movie... but is she a great actress? nope...but she could be if she allowed directors to direct her. It's groovy. Obviously people see something I don't and I am cool with that. I guess we will also never know how her role was for LENA HORNE Yall remember that right? When they dumbass not gonna show the move cuz Janet had the nipple thing. That made me mad. Just when i was wanting to know who the woman was i lost all interest. Im still waiting for a bootleg of the movie to come out Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records. | |

please don't be offended, but I really don't like how janet looks without long hair aka a weave. The tiny hairpieces she puts on them just looks so odd on HER and doesn't really enhance her features. I wish she had a nice style like the others, because she looks so blah compared to them in terms of how she wears her hair and dresses. I'm beginning to think latoya jackson would have carried it off better. | |

but if she had all the hair it would be harder for folks to differentiate the character and the entertainer....she's made it a habit of non-glaming her hair for her film rolls. i actually think its smart on her part...besides, who is she portraying? would the character require a weaved out do or is she supposed to be conservative? i don't hold judgment on an actor's choice of looks until i've seen the performance.

People are used to her with an over-the-top of everything as opposed to the 'regular' look. So I understand. It is refreshing to see her tune it down for a change,,,it makes her acting delivery more believable I guess. | |
