An absolute waste of money

A Brilliant Conflict

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

What is so awful about this movie is the way they, unsuccessfully, frame Nicole as a sympathetic character and the way they try to highlight the non-existent race issue. Nicole deserved absolutely nothing because:1. She had an affair with another woman's husband.2. She is a single mother and broke making her unable to provide for the child.3. She is alone and has no husband or kids of her own. The child would be better off with a family that is related to him, who has children, a mother and a father. The child would be happier with his father, a mother and siblings.4. The child's father and his family love the child and would not do anything to hurt him so he would have the love and support he needs from a family instead of with a single mother.5. She is promiscuous. The bottom line is that this woman had no consideration for her child when she conceived him, gave birth to him, selfishly considered him her meal ticket and thought that the baby has some power to validate her as a person. News flash: the baby doesn't love you, the baby must be taught to love by you and if you live a selfish, woe as me existence, constantly playing the victim and expecting others to pay for your mistakes, including the existing children and wife of the man you are screwing behind their backs, you should expect to be treated as the selfish, stupid, juvenile, unfit, ill-equipped, sorry excuse for a mother and woman that you are. Message to all the girls out there who think they can be gold-digging whores and everything will work out if they hang in there and "do what's best for the child": YOU ARE WRONG!No one deserves to have a child and those who do have a child should be mature enough to treat the child like a human being, not some magical idol that can save your life, validate you and pad your bank account all at the same time.Nicole should give up the child, find her own life and identity and stop using the child for her selfish reasons.THIS MOVIE SUCKS BUTT! Don't watch!

i saw this last night it was heart warming tear jerking type of movie. how a woman, Nicole, a basketball groupie who has an affair with Ty, the big basketball hero to the many eyes of people. when she finds out she is pregnant and tells Ty but, to Ty this pregnancy does not fit well into his star-lit life. Then after Nicole gives birth to the baby, Noah, Ty becomes very interested in the child. Ty goes to great lengths to gain sole custody of Noah. The reason for this is that Noah is a mixed child half white half black. Ty believes that Nicole wouldn't be able to help Noah because he looks more like him black. During the custody battle to gain Noah, Nicole loses this jerk of a lawyer because she does an interview and due to that his lawyer reputation of not being able to handle a lost of the case. Nicole tries to call several lawyers but no lawyer wants to take the case. She then goes into a restaurant where there are a bunch of lawyers she stands up on a chair and makes a plea to any of the lawyers that would want to help her until a relative unknown lawyer, Doug Savant's character, who is looking to help further his career decides to take case pro bono. She agrees to work with this lawyer who helps to bring the case all the way to the supreme court which the courts sets a precedent and gives Nicole sole custody of Noah. This movie shows that no matter what ethnic background love prevails, as well as, a heart to fight for somebody you love. a great movie.
