Summary: 'Deliver Us' is too cute... and LL Cool J is fine!
Review: This film is so cute and fun, what's not to like? Yeah, Eva is over the top, but it's a comedy, so sit back and laugh. It reminded me of 'Two Can Play That Game' in a good way.

LL Cool J is a great actor and it's surprisingly easy to separate him from his old school rap persona. I especially loved Robinne Lee (from 'Hav Plenty' and 'National Security') in this too, as one of Eva's sisters. She is a great actress who will go far!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Movie! Funny as Anything and Great Chemistry!
Review: This is a great movie! It is funny as anything, and the chemistry between Cool J and Union is really believable! The Movie starts out great and continues going great until the 2nd half of the movie. At the 2nd half the story becomes cliched and isn't that interesting. But still you would still watch it! Then at the ending you would love it! The ending is a really nice ending!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Movie
Review: This movie had me very shooked from beging to end I never knew what was going to happen next. Gabrelle Did a good Job So did LL.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!!!!!
Review: This movie is very entertaining, funny as well as, sentimental. The movie keeps your attention from start to finish. Gabrielle and LL's chemistry is more than just a one night stand, but has the kind of passion you like to see onscreen. Deliver us from Eva proves that you can still enjoy an excellent movie without nudity, alot of sex and bloodshed....This is a definite GO SEE movie and own it when available.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: not bad
Review: This movie was not bad. You have this woman eva who takes care of her 3 sisters. And their family is very close knit. After their parents passed away eva is all they trust. and the men in their life can't take eva or her Iron fist attitude. The men get together and get LL Cool J (which is too fine in this movie). they payed and convienced him to get with eva.

Honestly this movie was cool. It was hard to watch again because
once you understand why she is so cold hearted you get why she acted the way she did. and once you get were the attitude came from then you take it personal when they pay someone to come to her.

Don't get me wrong, this movie was nice. and it does have a good ending. Thank god.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great
Review: This was a really good movie! I mean it was predictable and all but the actors were great and it was a pretty good movie. The one thing that was sorta stupid was the tyying him up part but other than that it was a good movie and it had a sweet ending!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Decent, Ordinary Romantic Comedy Upgraded by Two Good Leads
Review: Two good leads James Todd Smith aka LL Cool J (so the credit goes) and gifted Gabrielle Union raise this romatic comedy film's quality one notch higher. The film suffers from its predictable story and some awfully stereotyped characters, but certainly there is chemistry between Ms. Union and Mr. Smith which sprinkles considerable charms on the screen.

Yet another modernized variation of Shakespearean love theme, 'Deliver Us From Eva' features Eva (Union), uptight woman who could mercilessly beat the men with her fast-spitting rapid-fire words. Today, she organizes a book-reading meeting with three sisters of hers, and the book happens to be Toni Morrison's 'Beloved,' accompanied with the video starring Oprah. Three guys who live with the sisters (not Eve), claims that they want to see a football game on TV, but as you see, their slightest hope is crushed by Eve before they knew it.

So, the three unhappy men talk suave lady's man Raymond (Smith) into asking man-hater Eve for date, in order to get rid of Eva' influence to other sisters, and their life. Cool Raymond, who in turn asks for reward $ 5,000, finally agrees, and he approaches to her. The results? Now you know it.

It's not the thin characters that hold the center of the film, and definitely not the familiar story -- what is really wonderful is the acting of the two leading players, LL Cool J and Gabrielle Union. LL Cool J is always a reliable actor in actions, but in this comedy he shows more tender, likable side. But more impressive is Ms. Union, whose character Eve is not always an amiable person, who often looks like a caricature of bossy woman with an icy heart. Actually she is not, as it turns out, but without her skilled acting Eve would have been more mean-spirited, nasty creation who makes every viewer think 'Deliver us from her.'

The film is produced by FOCUS film (which gave us gritty '21 grams'), and that is a bit surprising, but more surprising thing is that the film, unlike that Sean Penn film, lacks the bite this company could have added. Not that I complain; but 'Deliver Us From Eva' though it is cozy and warm, could be different, different in a better, more unpredictable way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!!
Review: What more is there to say? The movie was GREAT. LL was wonderful, Gabrielle Union was fabulous, and the supporting cast was simply over the top. Loved the storyline---that of 4 sisters whose closeness and allegiance to the oldest (Gabrielle Union) drives their husbands/boyfriends crazy. So they employ Raymond (LL), resident mac daddy, to woo Eva and get her out of their hair. But the whole scheme backfires when Raymond develops genuine feelings for the sister from hell....and subsequently wants to "come clean."

This movie will have you laughing from beginning to end...you'll shed a few tears, and ultimately cheer loudly for true love to prevail.
