Sadly Over-hyped

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Last night,I was only just flicking the channels on the television because the Internet was down and I was bored out of my skin, that was until I came to watch this on the channel 'More Movies'. I thought this was really good because it gives you a message that it doesn't matter if your black or white, you are entitled to love at whatever costs. That's what I really liked about this film! I never even heard of this film before until last night in late 2015! Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Challen Cates were really good at being their characters. I loved how their relationship blossomed quite suddenly when they first met when they were stranded in the middle of nowhere! I thought it was a nice film to watch before Christmas!

I thought this movie was too absurd for me to finish watching it. The premise was too silly and predictable. I didn't make it far into the movie.Let me see. She is obviously older than the cabbie (unless she is a lot younger than she looks). He is black and she is white. She makes more money than him (he is only a cabbie). That's 3 of society's most statistically failed unions all rolled up in one and we are supposed to pretend they have a chance in hell. She would be better off marrying the guy she doesn't love.I only watched it partially because I love MJW as an actor. His acting was superb. Hers, meh! It was OK but the premise is too silly. Didn't see the end. Couldn't make it there so I don't know if it ended differently from the way I predicted the ending would be. I can't imagine any black woman liking this movie. There is something sickening about watching a black man catering to a white woman like that. And an old one at that. PLEASE! Not in the real world!

This is a light, easy-to-watch film about a lady on her way to her wedding being forced to hire a cab from Seattle to LA. I watched it one morning, as I was just waking up, eating my breakfast. Excellent way to wake up......We know something will happen between them; we know she is difficult to please; we know she will change before the journey and the film ends.Along the way, we notice many things:Cameo by un-credited Karl Malden as Corporate Vice President "The cell-phone can find us" scene from 6 days 7 nights, repeated in a highway setting.The highway breakdown scene from Steve Martin's "Planes, Trains, Automobiles" remade.Challen Kates, although she has not done many movies so far, is a very energetic player as well as being very cute (we can't say anything else about her real character, can we?). Why doesn't she do more films? One would think that to get money, all she needs to do is drive to an ATM so why doesn't she? And do all cabbies give this MUCH credit to clients? Although there is plenty of scope to further extend the two main characters, the author doesn't. That's just too bad.All in all a nice film.....

A tender movie that represents how our daily life is a catalyst that causes us to change our thoughts, behaviors and emotions into people we're not. This story is a love story where true emotions arise. I credit Malcolm Jamal Warner (Win) and Challen Cates for outstanding performances . A movie definitely worth seeing, a holiday roadtrip that turns into an emotional turn-a-round. I suggest seeing it.
