    I loved this movie!!!

    I wasn't too sure at first how this movie would turn out but I actually loved this Comeback movie. I loved the cast and the flow of the movie. Everyone's acting was on point and I honestly enjoyed this film. Me and my boyfriend stayed laughing and the writing was great. I loved Taye Diggs and Apryl Jones. Their chemistry was amazing. I would love to see them in another film again. They should definitely make more movies together. I don't want to say too much and spoil the movie for you. This movie is a must watch. This movie is great for everyone but I would especially recommend this to couples. A 10/10!!!!

    A Dialogue Disappointment

    I really hoped for the best when I saw this movie pop up. I'm a huge fan of Taye and Apryl. But dang, I really wish the writing was better. The dialogue was predictable and a bit corny. The timing was a bit off with the move and the plot points were scattered all about like confettin leaving me totally confused. I'm surprised that with Taye Diggs as the star that this wasn't written and structured better.

    I'm yelling to the top of my lungs, please hire me. Sucks that there are great writers out here, such as myself, that can't get a break.

    This story had tons of potential, but fell short of goal.

    Breath of fresh authenticity

    I was looking forward to this when I first saw this pop-up. As far a comedy goes, there were some parts that were funny giving me a chuckle, but all in all is was more drama than anything else. The story was a tad slow but probably needed in order to develop the characters and their family dynamic. A change in family dynamic can REALLY affect everyone. I thought that was very authentic. The other, bigger authenticity that I saw was the relationship between Tay and April characters. They're arguing fighting but still loving each other is very very authentic. I have been in situations like that with my wife. In fact I thought I was the only one who ever did this. But when Tay gave her the middle fingers as she stormed out, that was FANTASTIC. I've never seen that in a movie so it was definitely a breath of fresh authenticity.

    Love April and Taye !!

    I enjoy the Comback. It was fun to watch a lighthearted black movie full of heart. Taye and April's chemistry is amazing. They kind of reminded me of chemistry that Tony and Angela had on Who's The Boss. Taye is so funny and April plays off him so great. I was surprised to find this movie. I had no idea they made a movie. To see a loving movie full of different family dynamics is refreshing. I hope to see these two pair up again and again. We need more fun loving romantic comedys with a feel good ending. The Peacock network picked a winner by airing The Comeback. The little girl was a bit much. I am sure that smart little girl will do big things in the future.

    Loved this film!

    Taye and Apryl delivered in this film! In fact, the whole cast did because everyone had me laughing. I also loved that for once there was two standup characters in this movie. No cheating! Again...lol

    The daughter is hilarious and with a smart mouth. Her punch lines are on point and I have to start taxing like she does. Hate the character Mel and the wife showed a lot of patience through the film.

    Let's talk about how fine the mom's boyfriend is tho. Too bad he's married in real life but I love her too.

    Taye and Arpyl really brought their social media chemistry to film and I really enjoyed it, especially the bloopers in the end.
