This is hands down one of the worst and poorly made films I have ever seen in my life. I cannot tell you completely because the words haven't been invented yet to explain how bad this film is. As a loyal fan of Deborah Cox, who has been quite upset with the way her music career has been going the last few years; I spied a copy of this DVD (in which she plays the lead female) on the shelf at my local video club and picked it up in good faith. I had anticipated that this DVD would hold an explanation as to why Deborah has been ridiculously and inexplicably absent from the music scene of recent but boy was I in for a a shocker. Aside from looking good in the clothes provided to her and the great job she seems to be holding down, there is not much else to see here. With this film, I saw her act for the first time and the acting (even I have to say) was nothing to write home about. Even the normally stellar Bokeem Woodbine is wasted as Shadow, the just released from prison husband of Deborah's character, who comes home to find out that his wife has done so well for herself in the 10 years that he has been gone that he can barely find a place in her life. Once he arrives from prison, the films begins on an episodic trail of bickering, regret, redemption, hate, spite, envy and ultimately leading up to an inevitable tragedy when Shadow escapes to the world of illegal boxing, after feeling boxed in by the new life his successful entrepreneur wife now has. And Trust me, I am making this sound good. Watch at your own risk or avoid at all cost!
