I’ve always said that Queen Latifah is the best representative of a confident Black woman we’ve seen in film/tv. I think she’s also uniquely rare when it comes to heavier set Black women. In NONE of her roles has she chased after a man out of desperation. In fact, the ball has always been in her court. Kadijah James stayed with a fine ass roster, Leslie Wright had the choice to take Scott back or not, Cleo had a BADDDD biddie on her arm, I mean the list goes on & on. I just love her.

[@MysticalPreshXO]

Great point! Love the representation too, & absolutely adore her 👑

[@amarismiller3905]

In “Last Holiday” too. She loooved LL Cool Jo’s character “Shawn”. When she found out she was gonna die, she let that go and started living her life before she passed. Shawn followed her all the way to where she was and confessed his love for her and she wasn’t dying😭😭😭

[@amyadams9970]

My issue here is why did Scott give Morgan a second chance. He should have said no and told her he moved on. There was nothing to think about, just because she had a bad life, that doesn't excuse the fact that she abandoned you in your hour of need! That part annoyed me

[@aaw14]

What I like about Leslie is she does not conform to female ideals of being a woman. Leslie stayed true to herself and never had to change for anyone.

[@G3NTOK1]

And despite that, she was still feminine! She wasn’t into what society thinks girls/women should be (which is basically what you’re saying) however that didn’t mean she wasn’t feminine. She still liked to look nice and be treated nicely.

[@esjay-rh7wx]

This movie has always been one of my favorite romantic comedies; so glad you reviewed it! But I've always thought the Scott character was way too naive/dumb as hell to be a NBA player in his thirties and not detect Morgan's game. In real life Scott would be able to spot the Morgans of the world coming from a mile away; his mama certainly did. To me Scott's stupidity towards Morgan might have been believable if he had been a rookie.

[@forthenostalgia]

That makes sense. I rookie wouldve been an easy catch for Morgan

[@jazzminewalker9628]

I feel your on this take. Maybe he was being willfully oblivious to his situation because even after he had been hurt by Morgan he still was holding out hope for her. Scott was deluded by love or what he perceived to be it when in actuality it was all with Leslie 😊

[@black.butterfly2114]

Honestly there have been studies to show that athletes aren’t the smartest. Even in the media rookie or not, you see these men getting hit with child support left and right. They have seen it happen to others and still fall for the trap.

[@trika91]

Shit! I also got hit with the opposite… I’ve met multiple guys approaching with the flirtations, yet (surprisingly) being very straightforward about their *intentions*. I have one guy not so subtly say he ONLY wanted a physical relationship, not even a ‘friends with benefits’ kind; he only wanted to “date” (as in wine and dine, nothing else) if he could get some in the end. Another guy, during a date (a first date getting to know the man mind you), was bragging about his pullout game and how he doesn’t need Condoms; then has the nerve to do a call over a weekend later for some casual play. Guess I’m not that type of woman who enjoys flings (just meeting a man, no matter how he looks, doesn’t instantly make me want to drop my pants for him), but I keep meeting men who do. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Morgan was an opportunist because her upbringing, if she was telling the truth, was unstable. Leslie wasn't phased because although her mom meant well, her father was 100% team Leslie. Morgan was a user, Leslie wasn't.

[@aamia3769]

I remember not understanding the themes of this movie and just viewing them as entertainment. Now as an adult, I don’t like what it’s trying to tell us. Scott had a lukewarm attraction to Leslie and chose her more feminine presenting and “conventionally attractive” cousin over her as soon as he had the opportunity. Sure he was under a false impression but after that facade was shattered what was the reason to take her back? She showed her true colors unapologetically. She was a gold digger who was too damaged to love period. She only came back once she was sure he was back to being relevant. He did Leslie so dirty and then tried to pretend that’s not what he did. Leslie could’ve done so much better. Any man or woman would’ve been lucky to have a genuine person like her in their lives. Too bad no one could see it except her father.

The reason he broke up with Morgan is because she revealed her hands too early when getting back together and gave Scott a chance to finally wise up to the bull. He picked Morgan first cause that’s who he wanted. On one hand I’m rooting for the main leads to get together but on the other hand I want Leslie to leave his butt behind because how dare he?

[@raymondwilliams6831]

Watching this as an adult, Morgan and others like her dont look at the big picture. There's nothing wrong with wanting to find someone who is financially well off. But most people who are rich/wealthy usually are with someone that has something going for themselves (career, money, etc.). There are cases where people like Morgan succeed, but for the most part, its not often. Leslie was a better partner because they were equally yoked and she was driven in her career, interests, and had confidence. Looks only get you so far and Morgan was coasting on that too much.

[@rhonnichan]

This was one of the few black romcoms gone right My fiance and I LOVE Just Wright. We watch it all the time

This movie showed the switch up Scott did was the result of a heart broken person not dealing with those feelings and being confused when the person that broke your heart comes back in your life. It also didn’t help that Morgan was good at manipulating people to get her way. Now I still think it was a dumb move to allow Leslie to leave so easily but he needed to deal with his feelings for Morgan before he could be the person Leslie needed him to be.

My guess for next week is The Best Man. 😂😂😂 All I needed was 1998, friends, and author. I hope that I'm right.

[@RemyVaunnD]

I've been waiting for you to do this one.

[@kayellejay9608]

The first time I watched this I didn't even finish it. As soon as Scott went back to Morgan I turned off the TV. I eventually watched the whole thing later. I think the happy ending is kind of cute, but I would feel weird if I was Leslie, knowing me and my god sister dated/slept with the same man.

[@UrbanRomance_]

Your dance breaks on the sexy moments LOLOLOL

“I can’t pay no bills with a medium rare ribeye “ CHILLLEEE 😂😂😂

[@KiaRoane]

My only criticism of this movie is, I wish they would have casted another leading man. A taller, more stocky leading man.

[@KawaiiPrncessBby]

While I do have a certain appreciation for common, I agree. He was aight, but maybe somebody else like a Kofi siriboe,

[@COURTNEYVCK]

I cannot agree more lol Common wasn’t really believable to me and his acting was subpar at the time maybe he’s improved

[@Regmuslima]

I'd say not only has he improved a bit but he's found his niche acting wise. Action and comedy as a side character are his strongest performances, which he wouldn't have found had he not challenged himself and experiment ​@COURTNEYVCK

[@TrikelaJones]

Awesome recap of my favorite movie!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@Thebeautyofarighteousmind]

Loving this review!! Honestly I felt like they didn't have that much chemistry but I still like the movie! My guess for the next movie is How Stella Got Her Groove Back.

[@tylerking9831]

This movie is way Better then love & basketball Lol the most overrated black romance film in my Opinion 😅😅😅

[@basicradical3581]

Yeah the message from that movie pisses me off, I think it's borderline harmful for black women to internalise

[@QuincyLamar]

I LOVE your channel, and always look forward to the next video! This is one of my faves too, and I love Latifah as an actress.

[@PSLuvAshanti]

I have watched this movie so many times!! I absolutely love Queen Latifah! She doesn’t play when it comes to portraying black women in the dating world and I love it! In regard to this movie I absolutely hated her mom….her daddy was literally my favorite character. Morgan was true to herself but just for that reason she would’ve never known I was going to Scott McKnight’s house. I also feel like Leslie should’ve said something from jump cause it was clear she liked him and was lying to herself. O and I love Scott’s agent…he was so messy lol he knew Scott would feel some type of way about Leslie not working for the Knicks.

[@lifewithnailah1942]

Def still does it for me too after all these years. One of my favs just based on how many times I’ve seen it alone 😅 great review sis, new subbie!

[@AnalyticalVouyer]

I can’t lie I stopped after 5 mins and rewatched the movie 😂 I still love it like it just dropped ❤
