When I read the jacket of this movie that came in the envelope I was suprised, since the online review said 'mystery suspense' type things....but the inside cover said "movie about AIDs education in the african american culture"....okay, that was not what I signed up for. In the beginning I was interested and the mystery seemed to be unfolding well.....then the 'AIDs education' part of the movie kicked in and, for me, ruined it. I thought I was watching a suspense,....not Brokeback Mountain. Without giving the movie away..if you are squeamish about that type of movie.....skip this one. Disappointed because I wanted to be entertained, not watch men on the "down low" flirt with one another and take diseases home to thier wives ....all so I can be educated about AIDS.

This movie was absolutely rediculous!! It took a VERY long time to get to the point, and when it did, we found out it was not worth the wait.

This was a real interesting movie. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. It is worth at least a first look.

Don't even bother with this one. The acting is poor, not believable, and transparent. Same goes for the story line. Combine the two and you get YUCK! Everything in this world does have something positive and I would have to say it is what the Reverend says to Dutch in the Church after all is revealed. That was some powerful stuff.

The first movie that I have seen that addresses a subject that has crossed all color and economic lines for years. Good acting, great message. A must for all to see.

Reviewers are overrating this movie 3 stars ok 5 I can't see it. Great cast and all,acting was good till the bible thumper s over acted,plot different and good.I think the translation and discovery to the term "down low" is the reason why everyone is so excited,and a good thriller it is.I'd suggest watching.

In today's day and time, one would think that mena nd women were up more on how many men are still on the downlow. It doesn't make any sense that black men, especially those who have gotten somewhere in life still choose to neglect their black women. This movie i not just a movie but reality. The writer hit this right on the nose. It's about time someone really put the truth out there.
