teaguem2005's reviews

I'm a huge fan of Wendell Pierce for his acting and activism. Glad he got to play leading role for a change.

Very good and slightly sappy story of a man who has been searching for his daughter for 2 decades.

Sometimes we do get to choose our family!

This series is very good. It's timely and breaks down the current quarantine from different perspectives. Bravo for memorializing current events as we move through the pandemic instead of waiting until we're on the other side.

I really enjoyed this movie from start to finish. Lots of action. I love seeing my city in movies even if they pretend its someplace else. There aren't any slow parts. Some outcome was predictible but it still was a good movie. I recommend it.

This telling of the story of Bobby DeBarge was literally all over the place. Even when I hit rewind on a couple of scenes I was left saying, "wait, did I miss...". The sequencing was absolutely awful. If you didn't know the story of Bobby Debarge you still wouldn't clearly understand based off of this movie. In their defense, I think they tried to squeeze too much information into the tiny time slot that then got further reduced by numerous commercials. I would like to see it retold in the same way the New Edition story was told over a series of days. This movie did not provide a clear overall picture of the family. Why not do a DeBarge story in its entirety; a mini-series?

I'm going to skip over whoever is responsible for the wigs in this movie because that would be an entire paragraph on its own.
