The Comeback

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.

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.

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.

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.

While the script could have been a bit more developed, I loved the chemistry of the actors and the ease at which they carried the story. Taye and Apryl have a natural chemistry. While I believe she may be more of a novice, she held her own. The comeback is a great platform to introduce her to a broader audience and movie makers. I hope to see more performances in her future. As usual, Taye was amazing!!! His performance seemed to naturally elevate the cast's performances. The plot was realistic and the young girl who plays their daughter is phenomenal! The supporting cast was talented as well.
