Note to Self (2012)
Could Have Been Better
It was a movie with black actors, so I thought I could relate and enjoy a lovely movie. All the actors could act and were good looking people, but that's where the positive for me ends. I hate when movies with black people have to throw in unnecessary sex scenes. Is it the only way to get people to watch your movies (Writer/Director/Producer)? It spoils the viewing pleasure for me and people like me. It wasn't kept clean, some of us would rather not be subjected to people having sex. Why should we be? Oh yes, the sexual innuendos where unnecessary too and jest made of Christians was distasteful, where was research on the Christian faith done, on TV?
I love doing a Google search of actors and found the main character was in his 30's at the time and his love interest, much younger, but in the movie she was meant to be 2 years older! Also, unbelievable was that the actor who played his father was cast as his father, when he's only a few years older - is that why he shaved, so he could look much younger? It didn't work. Also, in real life the actor who played the son is taller than the actor who played the father, why did the son always look shorter? Was there a point to it?
All in all, a nice round up of good actors saved it from a much lower star rating. Keep it clean and funny (I wasn't laughing, it said comedy) then you should get a higher vote. However, if it's people with minds in the gutter you're catering for they might have loved this regardless. Having said all that, when the main character said, "Make it quick, I have to get home to the wife, it's date night" made me smile in the end.
