Sean Combs should have stayed a producer and let someone else act the part.

I was not expecting the cast to do such a good job; I have seen this movie/play many times before obviously with other actors; I was impressed with Combs, and of course Rashad never disappoints!

I really enjoyed the movie. I am really not a "Sean Combs", "Puff Daddy", "P-Diddy" fan, but I actually think that he did a pretty good job at acting. He wasn't a Denzel or anything, but I would definitely watch another movie that he stars in. I want to commend Felicia Rashad on the great job that she did. She is a great actress whom I don't think is given the props that she deserves. The movie is a classic and enjoyment for the whole family.

With the long description that Blockbuster provided, you don't even need to watch the movie, because nothing else other than that happens. If you do decide to watch it, it is OK, good acting (except for Mr. Combs) and the movie gives you a good message of achieving your dreams. Great on portraying the African-American struggles during the Civil Rights movement.

I found this movie to be very disappointing. The character's were not very relateable. I was not impiled to hope or dream for the best outcome for them in their situation. I was not convinced of their struggle. I really wanted to hope and dream with them. The actor's in the film were not compeling enough . The movie was a unreachable attempt to replace the original.
