How Stella Got Her Groove Back Reviews
Wasn't what I expected...
This film was not what I expected. It was so plain. I was about ready to turn it off.
Others may like it though.
Boring, uninteresting, and dreadful that's what one reviewer is saying...
As much as Angela Bassett, Whoopi Goldberg and Taye Diggs work together as a great cast, this film is boring, which they can't help because they're all wonderful actresses and actors, but the plot is just dull and boring.
The movie begins with a successful stockbroker in San Francisco, who decides from the urging of her best friend, "Delilah," played by Whoopi Goldberg, that she needs a long-awaited vacation. So, while watching tv, she sees a commercial advertising travel to Jamaica, so "Stella," played by Angela Bassett decides that as much as she deserves a vacation, finally succumbs to her best-friend's suggestion and flies down there and meets her best friend, "Deliliah."
The basic premise is a 40 year old woman falls in love with a much younger man, (old enough to be her son, no less) whose only 20. The 20 year old is named Winston Shakespeare, a native Jamaican, who decides to date "Stella."
At first, "Stella" (Angela Bassett) decides that dating a 20 year old man is robbing the cradle, but going against her better judgment, decides she'll throw caution to wind and date "Winston."
From the beginning of the film to the end the plot is boring, dull and uninteresting.
The characters like the plot are basic and boring. There's no real drama such as a hurricane taking place, or anything of that nature. While, the actors and actresses are talented not even their great acting abilities and personalities could save this film from being a complete failure, in my humble and honest opinion.
To recite a classic cliche, "Not even the best popcorn can save this film" and it's because of this that I give the film the lowest rating possiblg of only 1 star, which is extremely unusual for me because I almost always give films a 5-star rating because I enjoy so many movies, but this film just wasn't worth anything more than 1-star.
Bottome line; You're much better off renting or buying another film.
