This was one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. It was filmed and directed superbly. I actually had to think in order to understand what was really happening. I would have liked a little more depth with Sinbad's character but, still a great thought provoking film none the less. It was refreshing to see a movie starring and directed by black people with no jive nor sterotypical crap involved in other words..A person of any nationality could have been the lead . I liked being reminded that there are other things involved with life besides politics, trying to score, drugs, and money. I wish that good movies like this were not constantly over looked. I am not saying that I have never seen better but, I watched it twice which is something for me. There is a quote in this movie which facinates me...
*******Spoiler******
Dr. Adams asks the head nurse what question she would ask the devil if she could ask him one. Her answer was " I guess I would ask him why he spends so much time punishing sinners that he is supposed to like just to prove a point to a God that he is supposed to despise?"
It made me wonder what my question would be. Most of the movies I have rented lately make me ask myself one question...Why did I waste my time and money? This one did not. I recommend this movie if you have an open mind with a touch of imagination and can remember that it was filmed in 19 days on a very low budget.
