Why did I get Married? (DVD)
After watching this film yesterday evening with my wife, I can’t understand how this movie got such terrible reviews on The Internet Movie Database (3.4/10). The only explanation I could conceive was that these people who rated the film had never actually watched it.
With that said, I thought that “Why did I get Married?” was an excellent film. The two primary reasons for its success were definitely the powerful storyline and its amazing cast.
The storyline was quite a refreshing change from all the stereotypical movies I’ve watched lately involving the African American Community. Instead of focusing on drug pushing, street gangs, and the ghetto fabulous lifestyle, this film centered on many of the hardships that come along with balancing out the commitments to a successful career, spouse, and family.
Perry did an absolutely wonderful job with choosing the film’s cast members. All of them put on excellent performances, but it was Malik Yoba, Tasha Smith, and Jill Scott whom I felt really made an impact on the movie’s landscape.

- The Spirit (Latest Theatrical Trailer) -#
Adapted from the Will Eisner's graphic novels, "The Spirit" tells the story of a man who fakes his own death and fights crime from the shadows of Central City. The Octopus (Samuel L. Jackson) -- who kills anyone unfortunate enough to see his face -- has other plans. He's going to wipe out the entire city. The Spirit tracks this coldhearted killer from the city's rundown warehouses, to the damp catacombs, to the windswept waterfront...all the while facing a bevy of beautiful women who either want to seduce, love or kill the masked crusader. - My EliteXC : Heat Winners -#
