 Great Potential March 4, 2009
E. R. Walker (USA)
This movie definitely had great potential, but there were too many unanswered questions in this movie. I really enjoyed how the movie emphasized the mother and her love for her boys, how she tried to help the older boy to stand up for himself, and the bond she created between the two boys. Vanessa Williams is a dynamic actress and she played the role of the mother with great professionalism and greatness. But there were just too many gaps in the movie to allow it to be sensational. It needed more!

Maurice Colbert (USA)

 Disappointment. January 9, 2009
N. Rios
When I saw a trailer of this movie on the television I was so excited! It was nothing like I expected. The story was weak. I felt badly for the actors having to deal with such an awful script. The acting was surprisingly good! Don't pay top dollar for this movie. I fell asleep.
Bad Editing/Directing April 24, 2008
R. Carter (N.J.)
This movie had a good story line, good enough acting. My issue is with the director/editor. This movie was all over the place. For ex: the scene where he is on the train "day dreaming" was entirely too long. And some of the flash backs shown had no place in this particular scene. Placement of scenes was very awkward or out of order. Ok movie to stumble on and watch. I would not recommend this movie to anyone.
It Left Me Hanging October 8, 2007

The brothers love for each other, instilled in them by their dying mother is very heart-warming. The acting is very good, especially that done by Vanessa Williams. Her scenes really tug at the heart as she tries to remember all the life lessons she wants to teach her son before she dies. Those were real tearjerker moments. But I still can't figure out why Tatum O'Neal made such a short appearance, never to be seen again. Her and the entire ugly club situation could have just been kept out of the movie entirely and it would not have been missed at all. It was not clear as to what happened to Isaiah and James after Isaiah kidnaps him from the mental facility. They were both too young (I think Isaiah was 10) to be on their own. What happens to Isaiah and the gansters? Does he turn over the package and he's free to go? Although I did enjoy the movie, it left me with too many questions unanswered.
