Strength of a Woman

I first thought it was about Mary J Blige's life but quickly realised it was 2 movies that she produced. It was a really beautiful story of love and how things can go wrong when everything seems to be going so good. I enjoyed the realness it possessed and the relatability of it. Some of the actors I've seen in other projects but overall I thought the actors were all great and did a good job in their roles. I feel really proud of Mary J Blige for venturing into new roles outside of music and acting. You go girl great job. I loved both movies Real Love and the Strength of a woman. Would make a good television series.

Finally! A portrayal of a real Black Woman I could identify with. I was absolutely disgusted with the filthy, foul mouthed, nymphomaniacs with their breast pushed up as far as they could go looking like a damn about to break while going to work! Totally disgusting.

But I could identify with Kendra who was a lady inside and out. She had respect for herself and didn't have to pound her chest with foul language!!!

Kendra and Ben were both well cast and I was proud for them to be cast before the world and show all black women are not loose and vile.

Thank you. Please consider making this a series!!!

I don't think I would have liked this movie as much had I not seen part one, Mary J Blige's Real Love. Watching the story develop and the characters grow, made part two more interesting. Ok. I'll admit it. I fell in love with Ben (Da'Vinchi) and Kendra ( Ajiona Alexis) in part one of the story(Real Love). So, in part two when Ben showed up at Terry's fundraiser, I was excited. There was that on screen chemistry. They look like they belong together. I started rooting for him and Kendra to get back together.

Strength of a Woman, part two of Ben and Kendra's story, starts fourteen years later. Kendra is a successful photographer married to a Neurologist. Who isn't around very much. Kendra is anxious to start a family She is now in her mid thirties. But Kendra's strength is tested, and once again she has to dig deep to regain control of her life. I would recommend watching Mary J Blige's Real Love first to get the full story.

I was so happy when I found there was a sequel to Real Love. Normally sequeals do not do it for me but this one took me by surprise. The chemsitry of Ben and Kendra is just as strong as it was in the last. The kind of chemistry you only feel with few people in the world. Even though their lives took a ton of twist and turns the love never died. We all pray for that kind of love. And I like that it was not a cookie cutter storyline and instead the cast faced real life situations and I love that they were not struggling but instead all successful in their own right. It puts me in the mind of Love Jones. A new love story added to my collection.

I saw a movie that said "Mary J Bliges Strength of a Woman 2023".

What is this to do with Mary J Bliges?? Nothing as I found out.

I quickly accelerated through the movie as I realized that this was nothing but a boring soap. And I don't regret it because is remained boring till the end. It's just a sickening boring soap.

Only the rich houses are nice. All the rest is so boooring, and bad acting at that.

We follow the life of some Kendra, whoever that is, who is a photographer, not a singer.

I won't tell of the story because that would be a spoiler, but I tell you it's just a soap, and nothing to do, that I know, with Mary J Blidge.
