A friend said that this was her favorite movie so I finally got around to watching it.

I loved it. I love the story, I love that this was done in 1997 and the actors were about my age at that time. I love the music and dialog. I thought the actors and production were great.

....but damn is it frustrating to watch 2 young people that are good for each other make mistakes! Then again, that's what young people do.

The most recent review gave it a 3 because Darius was was "a stalker". I wrote my friend last night and said similar! 20+ years ago it wouldn't have been as big of a deal to figure out someone's address and just show up at their house. Now it seems a bit creepy. Times have changed and I have changed. I thought about that last night.

So, it's a little dated in a few ways, and some may not enjoy this film because of that. However, if you were in your 20s (or teens or 30s) in the 1990s, and you want a love story, then you'll love this.

I love this film.

This isn't sci-fi; this isn't fantasy. This isn't a family movie. This is the experience of being Neil Armstrong over the course of several years and several missions. I found it incredibly interesting.

If you don't have a big TV screen and surround sound then I recommend not watching the movie because the air/space missions in this movie are beautiful and need to be properly experience or they won't be appreciated.

First of all, if you're not interested in the people then you're not going to be interested in the show.

It's mainly basketball stars, but there's musicians comedians and others who stop by "the (barber)shop" to hang. They're all successful and big names. They're in an environment where they can say *almost* anything they want.

This is, I believe, completely unscripted. Your morning talk shows or shows on certain news networks still have talking points and a narrative to follow. This one is open ended (or so it seems).

I find the dialog interesting and enjoyable. I hope the show continues with the format they have, and I hope it's successful.

One last thing: One reviewer said that he has a PhD in history and this show strays far from the facts. I have a graduate degree (not a PhD, but...) and am trying to think of where this show went into details about world history. They talk about life and sports mainly. I feel like that reviewer didn't watch the show and made up a bad review. The basis the reviewer used is doesn't apply to this show.
