I got a chance to see this movie over a month ago at the AMC 25 on 42nd street in Times Square here in New York City. All I will say is this movie was mind-blowing and EXTREMELY timely. This movie is a perfect starting point for a much needed dialogue regarding a brooding DL issue. If you want to know more then buy the DVD in May; I promise it's worth it. This movie is definitely well acted, suspenseful, intense, filled with recognizable and acclaimed actors and poignant. Bill Duke (the director) did a great job. There were some editing clumsiness that got on my nerves at times, but the story and the acting made up for it. Check it out!

5.0 out of 5 stars It does tell a story, January 31, 2009

I recently bought this about a month a ago, and my husband and I decided to watch it together...I was not really sure about what the movie was going to depict. But overall it is a good movie, nothing I would see with the kids. But it does have several messages within the movie..how we as Christians, should love one another and should weclome everyone one regardless of what or where they are coming from...if you allow God in, he will change you from the inside and outside...well we see in this movie how some of the church women act ugly to one character, it shows that even though we call our selves Christians..look in the mirror before you start talking, we all came from somewhere.
It also shows how things in the dark will come to light eventually, and how the choices we may can either make us or break us.
While the movie deals with real issues, you must watch it and pay close attention....and leave the judging up to GOD!
