With This Ring

I don't understand these types of movies, as they seem to serve no purpose. They aren't funny, dramatic, or even absurd. They're just full of filler content that bores the viewer to death. The plot is all over the place, the acting is wooden, and there is no attention holding content. Definitely doesn't belong on Lifetime!

Despite a decent cast, 'With This Ring' is just a dull, predictable love squabble.

Regina Hall is perfectly sufficient as Trista, as is Stephen Bishop as Nate; the latter, who I remember from 'Imposters', is rather underused - a pure romance comedy with him and Hall could've been very good. The rest, e.g. Jill Scott (Viviane), are fine.

The boring premise is what lets this film down. You know what's going to happen from the opening minutes, unfortunately they don't do enough to sway your thought process away from the obvious. Other parts, like the music, dialogue and humour, are also poor; Jason Rogel's Mikiko is all that drew a laugh from me.

Overall, a poor film - which is a shame, as this likeable cast should've been utilised better.

So so corny but also....entertaining I guess. And since this review is supposed to be longer than my one sentence I might as well add that it's really corny.
