This movie was much better than I thought, although it had it issues. Among them Characters were not really developed, introductions were awkward and too many additional story lines that had nothing to do with the story itself. Pooch Hall he just showed up in Martha's Vineyard, technically the cousin (DeRay Davis) could have just been there. The entire chef scene with (Dourdan / Good) could have been left out. I'm not too sure what was the point in any of their scenes. Another distraction was (Rameo and Tasha). The whole cougar situation didn't work at all, and in the end...(I won't give away what happens), but I just have to say our entire audience in the movie revealed their distaste for that final scene. Lastly the cameo's from TD Jakes were bizarre. He seemed to be lifeless and such poor acting! Wow, what a distraction. There were other great things about the movie (Bassett) was great and the entire situation between she and her husband worked, but not developed enough. The rift between sisters was also underdeveloped. And why the groom's mother (Devine) was so angry and mean another problem. I didn't like her at all in that role and she looked beet down and haggard. Mike Epps is the movies saving grace. He was very funny. I saw him in Richmond VA and wasn't very fond of his style, but after watching the movie I have to say I'm a fan.
