    This movie was a lot more than i excepted. I really enjoyed the movie, it was funny and bonding. I expected to see more of Terrance Howard however the movie carried it's weight without him.

    Unlike the other movies people keep saying, this movie has heart! It has a uplifting undertone and shows the reality of life. It is not that funny, but has some good laughs in it. I enjoyed it even after I thought I'd rented a laugh fest.
