Great film. When he decided to do his war paint as a face beat of makeup it send chills down my spine. Would love a portrait of that hanging on my wall
One of the saddest things about this movie is that Elegance Bratton’s mother was murdered by his sister in a domestic violence rage, before the movie debuted. This movie could have given Elegance some closure and resolution. Extremely sad. Elegance’s mother had a particular appreciation for Gabrielle Union.
To say Gabrielle Union’s performance is outstanding, is an understatement. Everything about her performance is perfection. Her timing, eye movement, her voice inflection, the cigarette. This was a solid Oscar performance. -when I first heard Elegance wanted Gabrielle for this role, I thought, uh oh, I thought no, Gabrielle is too young, too glamorous for this role. I thought, nope, get Viola Davis for this one. Then, when I saw the performance with Gabrielle in the role, I was blown away. No exaggeration.
Wanted more moments of our lead with his mom and some moments prior to him going to the navy. Also wanted a bit more moments with the other around him in the navy

Yaass! Thanks for reviewing this, saw this in Chicago a month ago and LOVED it!🙂
Only a 4 out of 5, what would have made it a “5” ?

No gayness.
@@MovieFiles -he wasn’t in the Navy, he was in the Marines.
