5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent urban film!, February 22, 2005

By 

TennisKing (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Park Day (DVD)

At first glance of the dvd cover I thought this movie was just another urban drama consumed by stereotypes about African American life.

However, I found the presentation of the story and characters to be quite refreshing in a sea full of sketchy urban films. The story is universal, and the characters are complex.

Hill Harper and Monica Calhoun both give great performances. They both capture the true essence of the characters unfulfilled dreams, and you sympathize with them, or you can relate to them because they are playing someone you may know.

Even though the explaination of,"Park Day" is not clear, and the ending leaves something to be desired this movie is a winner. This one will be watched again, and I suggest anyone who's stuck in life to take a look at this film. I will certainly pass this movie along to friends and family members who's lost their way.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Human Interest and Spirituality Movie, January 3, 2007

By 

Artist & Author (Near Mt. Baker, WA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Park Day (DVD)

The Spiritual aspect of this movie is admirable. However, the movie is quite disjointed and a bit difficult to follow. It probably would have been better to have one story, with maybe one sub-story instead of three different stories going all at once. Still, with all the movies that show African Americans as either criminals or comedic, it is refreshing to see them depicted in this movie very realistically. Even the shaman seems believable. [He was the black man on trial in 'To Kill a Mockingbird' many years ago.] A few used foul language, but most didn't. I won't tell you how the movie ends, but Christians will appreciate that it is shown as a real answer to prayers.

5.0 out of 5 stars this is a great one, November 19, 2004

This review is from: Park Day (DVD)

this movie isn't the sort of movie you really understand the first time. it is thought-provoking and even though it jumps around a little, it has a very good story. i like all of the different themes that are brought into this movie. and despite the serious tone it seems to carry, there are many points of good humor thrown in. i would recommend this to pretty much anyone who has always wanted more for their lives, but we're just afraid to get it. this is an inspiring film once you reflect on its meanings. if you haven't seen this, you should.
