an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreWhile it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
... View MoreWhile it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
... View MoreThe film falls into the trap of all bachelor party films. Total confusion, anger and fights break out and always seem to mar the main event from occurring. This film unfortunately fits the pattern.We have an assortment of couples coming to Las Vegas for the wedding.We even have a best man who got his position by mistake and tries to go all out to make this a grand affair. Instead, he provides more confusion and chaos than necessary.We have the mother of the groom-to-be who shows what the definition of a mother-in-law may really be with her take charge attitude.We have fights, all going to jail and eventual redemption. It's just the silliness in getting to the end.
... View MoreThis movie right here brought back some jazz baby. This movie gave the fun in funky. I just love the idea of the beautiful land astonishing setting. I love the idea of having all of these amazing actors. Just a combination of all of them give viewers a thrill. This was a good idea and developed based of a wonderfully made script. If you can please make a third one. This movie gave me life and had you emotionally attached. You com from laughing to happy to sad and then to happy again. This movie has your emotions rolling all over the place. Basically this movie is an emotional roller and I recommend it to anyone that would love a good laugh.
... View MoreThink Like A Man Too 4/10- Everyone knows Kevin Hart has really burst into the spot-light over the past year. His brand of humor appeals to many crowds which is why so many like his comedy, including myself. Since Think Like A Man got me nearly on the floor laughing last year, I had high expectations for the sequel. Sadly my expectations were not met, and I left the theater still wanting something more. Although Think Like A Man Too utilizes all of Kevin Hart's comedic talents, the film is still not saved from a under-developed plot and dragged- on scenes. Also, I don't know how else to say this, but in a lot of the scenes, it is painfully obvious that the other members of the cast are not as funny as Kevin Hart. Although this sequel has a knew twist to it, the movie still follows the "battle of the sexes" story much like the first one which starts to get old after a while. The original used this well, the new one, not so much. Instead of producing comedy from all of the dramatic scenes, what follows most of the dramatic scenes is really just more drama which a couple jokes thrown in. The storyline goes off-track so much about the personal lives of the characters and it takes away from the attention from the main plot: the bachelor party. I honestly thought a Kevin Hart movie that revolves around a bachelor party would be drop dead hilarious, but they barely even talk about the bachelor party. This is probably the main problem I have with the movie, but I am not saying it wasn't entertaining.As I said earlier, they used Kevin Hart in this movie as much as they could and this move may have saved the film. Kevin Hart is probably the main reason why I had a little bit of fun watching the Think Like A Man sequel. I am not saying the other actors did not contribute to the movie, I thought that Romany Malco, Regina Hall, and Gabrielle Union increased the level of their performances from the first film. The only time I thought they used Las Vegas to their advantage was in the gambling scenes which are in my opinion the funniest scenes. If they used more of the Las Vegas-Bachelor party concept to their advantage, I have no doubt that it would have been funnier than the original. I am not saying that this movie is not funny because it is still a decent comedy. I recommend though you see this film only if you are a die-hard Kevin Hart fan, otherwise I would wait till it comes out on DVD.For more of my reviews, go to my website at reviewsbywest.com
... View MoreIn the second of the Think Like a Man series, the boys are back in town as they return to Las Vegas to celebrate some nuptials but also one last chance to live a night of debauchery. Not to be outdone, the girls and are there with them and they are armed with Las Vegas excitement as well. White folks have hangover, old folks have Last Vegas, now black folks have Think Like a Man Too. The it guy, Kevin Hart makes for a fun character that leaves not joke behind as each of the fellows brings their own game to the town. Some parts are silly, some are funny, but in the end this makes for a fund night in the city that never sleeps. It makes you realize that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. I enjoyed the movie, I was expecting a few more cheesy predictable scenes but overall it has some funny bits and is a fun movie.
