Movie Reviews

Reviewed by JAW 7 / 10

Good movie, Better book

This wasn't a bad movie. The acting was great (although Whitney Houston still seems mediocre). Some of the scenes were powerful and funny. However, unlike the book which also deals with the sisterhood of Black women, the movie becomes a long "Men are pigs" tirade that gets weary after a while. Plus it's sometimes hard to root for the characters. For instance, considering all the one-night stands Savannah has, it's hard to see why she's questioning her ability to find a good man. Overall, Waiting to Exhale, is basically a sorely-needed bonding movie for African-American women that, while a little biased, is good escapist fun.

Sometimes rocks, sometimes rolls

If you've read the book, you can fill in the spaces. If not, it will be a one dimensional cautionary dating tale. It falls flat on character developments but rocks some great hair. Whitney Houston acts like a strawberry.
