Single parenthood beats the odds in this movie about a 24 year old college student who in his senior year experiences a tumultuous time with his mother becoming seriously ill and the father he barely knew trying to come back into life. What makes this movie work is that it manages to maintain an upbeat swing to it due to the way his mother raised him. He is a very likable, mannerable young man who realizes that it's time for him to get serious about himself and life. As a result, he finds himself falling in love and making strides to become the man his mother desperately wants him to be.
There is enough comic relief to keep you laughing and there are moments that will make you cry.
I thought the actors did a fine job and Brian McKnight was just superb in his role.
I was pleasantly entertained and I think others will be too.

This is a great movie with a good dose of romance, comedy and stuff like basketball or manly talk for the bros. I like that it does not objectify women exceedingly like so many Black Hollywood movies do. It did have a number of sexual scenes, but it was easy to fast forward or know at least that it is coming to mentally prepare.
Here's a brief overview: it is about a young boy who thought his senior year will be a breeze but came to face a number of challenges that will eventually make him than break him. During this experience, he will meet the love of his life, who is going through personal things that will threaten to come between them.
Overall, great message. I'm definitely glad I watched it. We need more movies like this.
