This 2005 comedy from filmmaker Greg Carter finds a young woman unsuccessfully trying to live down her eccentric roots. When Audrey heads off to college, she looks forward to starting a new life without the shadow of her outrageous soul-singing parents and hip-hop siblings constantly over her. Unfortunately, just when she's finally settled in and fallen in love, the brood comes to town and reminds Audrey and all of her fellow students where she came from. My Big Phat Hip Hop Family stars Reynaldo Rey, Anna Marie Horsford, and Retha Jones. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide
A man has a month to decide if his girlfriend is the love of his life in this romantic comedy. Kwame Gatmon (Brian Hooks) is a young man with a promising career as a musician and a beautiful girlfriend, Yasmine (Shani Bayete). But Yasmine is tired of watching her girlfriends get married while she watches on the sidelines, and one day she gives Kwame an ultimatum -- either he marries her in 30 days, or she'll never see him again. Kwame isn't sure what to do; while he loves Yasmine, he also likes his freedom, and paying a visit to his buddies who've tied the knot hardly makes marriage look like an attractive proposition. Nothin' 2 Lose was the first feature film from writer and director Barry Bowles. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
