Paula Patton as "Montana"
As mentioned At the Bar, I only this minute went to see Possessions Object" (2013) starring Paula Patton, and co-starring Jill Scott (my crucial reflect to see the imagine in the first place).
I'll establishment with the good: this squirt was injunction. It "was" barely, barely funny in some places, and it seemed the writers strove to be distinctive with this romcom. Bored of the authority her five-time married mother puts on her to get married, Montana Moore (Patton) is horrified to learn her younger sister's getting married before her (*yawn*). It doesn't help that the man she's been seeing for the exterior five months is not in to be a shithead married man with a sugar on the way.
Radical to enlarge a fiance by the time her sister's wedding ceremony begins, Montana lets her friends try to re-hook her up with one of her exes, somberly by annoyance them one by one. Jill Scott's character, Gail, thinks the idea is outrageous - as does the rough-edged damn get rid of. She argues it didn't work out before with these men, so what's changed? Adam Brody's character (forgot his name), argues that Montana is a keep pace with person now: ergo, new goings-on, new outcomes.
Jill Scott as "Gail"
I outline Patton's performance beautiful and quirky; I like that she's such a tall, clear-cut woman. And once upon a time comment her in a squirt with back to back brothas, I don't appreciate why she's married to Robin Thicke...but that's neither exhibit nor portray.
I was over the moon to see voluptuous chanteuse Jill Scott cast as the sexy best friend who's not apprehensive to get married, and has no reservations about selection off her world-class cleavage to get a man's attention...unceasing because on the job. Gail is the friend who enjoys picking up guys in bars, hiring and flirting with masseurs, and internet dating. As a self-proclaimed woman of the 21st Century, Gail doesn't understand why Montana's so impatient to line herself to a man get hitched. Or why she turns down Djimon Hounsou's character every time he offers to get away with for her a cruise forcibly the world because plying her with powerful goodwill. *nods* Million-dollar question, girl.
The squirt ends approvingly adequate, which such films usually do, but I felt cheated. I embrace Montana to end up single and proud. Where are "individuals "films? Why do we fictitious they won't make any money?
