Summary: "I thought this was a long movie, but it wasn't that bad"!!!
Review: I think it was a pretty good movie however, it was long though. I also happen to like Angela Bassett, and Taye Diggs is hot, but they didn't go very well together in this movie. I always felt like something was missing besides the fact that (Stella Bassett) was too old for Winston (Diggs), and I felt their relationship with never work with a 20 year age difference between the two. I have seen movies that were way worse than this one though. I remember one point in the movie were it got kinda drawn out and dull, but as a whole it was pretty O.K.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great
Review: i thought it was a great film loved i

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: boring...
Review: I thought it would be a great movie, Angela Basset and Whoopy Goldberg are so great ! But it was not, not at all. One word resumes this movie : boring. It is so predictable that there is no need to watch the end, you know it from the very beginning !

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I WANT MY GROOVE BACK !!!!!!
Review: I totally enjoyed this spectacular video. I've had lushful daydreams of being in 'Stella's Shoes'. Never know, Jamaica might be seeing me on their island this summer looking for 'WINSTON'. Live from Detroit. Girls are you ready, let's get a caravan going.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: VERY ENTERTAINING; BOTH FUNNY AND TOUCHING
Review: I was just flipping channels when I happened to run across this movie. I didn't even know what I was watching, but the engaging dialogue held my interest, so I just kept on watching - and I'm glad I did! I really enjoyed this movie about a gorgeous forty year old woman taking up with a friendly, charasmatic guy half her age. Will the relationship last beyond the initial thrill of romace in sunny, exotic Jamaica? Will it work in "real life" - after the vacation is over? These may be somewhat cliched questions, but the clever (and amazingly funny!) writing and excellent acting (with a little help from Whoopie Goldberg as the warm and humorous "best friend") make the whole film a delight to watch! My opinion, ladies? Your husband may not be thrilled, but this is a great flick to watch either alone, or with your girlfriends!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: O.k. but not quite as good as it could be.
Review: I was really disappointed with this movie. The screen play was awful, but the acting saved it from being a total waste of time. Angela Basset and Taye Diggs act very well in this sexy movie. However, it just does'nt cut it in the end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie has everything you want in a romantic tale. Hot!
Review: If you are looking for a movie that could warm you up without letting you think this is a movie, look no farther. Angela surely will make you believe that this is her true life. The scenery is to much to believe on your screen. The love scenes were done so tastefully without showing any lewd scenes. Put it this way the popcorn will not be the only thing warm on your couch.

Summary: What Groove?
Review: Maybe this movie should have started where it ended. A single mother, successful career woman takes a vacation in Jamaica with her best friend. Has a fling with a younger man, comes back to New York to loose her job, her best friend dies, her fling comes to NY, and her family is set against their relationship. And somehow she's getting her "groove" back.

Where's the up swing in this movie? So, I tried to overlook that crucial flaw, I really tried to like this movie, but to no avail.

Taye Diggs as a 20 yr. old was unbelievably stiff and contained. Where is his zest for life, the energy and vivacity of a 20 yr. old falling in love for the first time. His performance was dull and uninspiring. The same goes for the chemistry between him and Angela Bassett.

Too many holes, too many flaws to point out, but it would mean reliving those forgettable scenes. This movie is like a plane that had it's nose up. It revved up its engine, but it just never took off.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Take me to Jamaica!
Review: My trips to Jamaica are re-lived through this movie! Whenever I want to take relax and take a quick vacation, I pop this movie in the VCR and watch the sights of the beautiful country, listen to the adoring Jamaican speech, and listen to the wonderful Carribean crickets. This movie was filmed in Kingston and includes all the wonderful sights and sounds of a beautiful island.
