Movie Review:

So I am very behind on my film reviews, so here are the latest films that I have seen recently and wanted to give some insight:

Not Easily Broken
Synopsis: Taraji P. Henson (THE FAMILY THAT PRAYS) and Morris Chestnut (THE PERFECT HOLIDAY) star in this relationship drama about a couple whose marriage is failing. NOT EASILY BROKEN is based on the book by T.D. Jakes, who also serves as a producer on the film.

Not Easily Broken, is a unique and different story. It shows the hurt and pain that relationships go through after the “honey moon,” period is over. Director Bill Duke was able to show some beautiful scenes between Henson and Lewis as the movie pushes their own relationship to a boiling point. Those viewers who take something of value from a story about self-sacrifice will certainly like this film, but those looking for action/drama should probably wait for it to come out on DVD.

Seven Pounds:
Before seeing this film, I could not figure out what it was about, but after sitting through the first thirty min. you begin to understand what is going on. This was on of the saddest stories I have had to sit through. Although the story slow at times, Seven Pounds stays the course thanks to Muccino's as director. Once again Will Smith brings his charm and easy going acting to the film. For the most part the film is very slow, but the ending is outstanding.
