Acrimony (Review)


Hulu has just recently added a popular film to stream, and it's creating quite a topic of many discussions. Acrimony, Tyler Perry's 2018 Drama film, is filled with bitterness, anger, and like the movie title itself .. Acrimony. The film stars Hollywood Walk of Famer, Taraji P Henson, and co-star, Lyric Brent, in one of Tyler Perry's most eye-opening film. 

You probably remember Henson's phenomenal acting in a previous Tyler Perry film, I Can Do Bad All By Myself, from back in 2009. It was only right to have her play the lead role (Melinda Gayle) in another Tyler Perry film. 

This film not only tested viewers thoughts during the different scenes that took place, but it also tested the emotions to see how the viewers felt about certain things. 

For example, how would you feel if you spent your life with somebody for a long time, just for things to end and the next woman gets everything you were promised?

In a man's argument, how would you feel if you disappointed your wife for many years and she gives up and stops supporting you? 

There's quite a bit of a view point from both parties when it comes to this movie, so it's best to have an open-mind when discussing it with others.

I think that this was an excellent movie and a true (well somewhat) visual of a girl's mentality post-breakup. I'm not saying that all women act like Melinda in this movie, but majority can relate/feel the pain that she felt. Of course, there were actions that I wouldn't agree with and say were right for her to do, but it was all understandable when I looked at it from an emotional stand point. 

I give this movie a 7/10, simply because I believe that there should've been an alternative ending but it still had a good plot to it. 

I hope this review was helpful and made you interested in seeing it for yourself! Sign up for Hulu today. Here

Its Get Involved Season

Happy November Ladies and Gentlemen, With the year of 2018 coming to end, let’s take a time to look back and reflect on everything we learned from, struggled with, or conquered through this year. Indeed, this year we experienced a lot of movements created from the social aspects of our society that branched out from numerous of topics. There were quite a handful of movements that were relatable and some that were an eye opener. Today were going to focus only on two; however, I’ll still list others that may interest you as well. The #MeTooMovement is a female empowering movement that aims to scream out to the entire world “DON’T COUNT ME OUT”. Women matter! It has been quite the fight to get the American Nation to still see women’s work equaled to man’s work. Women still get more rules and regulations in a work force, less pay, and no emotional support in anything they work for. With the #MeTooMovement, Women are able to be united and voice their concerns that they have and c...

Money Rule$

Money We all love it, we all need it, and we all want more and more of it everyday! The biggest problem that happens with our money when we get it, is that we usually spend it (sometimes all of it). Then we have to work to make up what we lost when we could've added to the numbers we already had. Everyone's guilty for doing this, so never feel bad or disappointed in yourself about how you manage your finances. First Banks gives a 5-Tip Money Saving article to help, not only young adults, but college students and young business owners.

Someone Great (Review)

Someone Great , a Netflix film that was released last month in April is starting to become widely talked about all through social media. "Relatable", "Powerful", "Emotional" and "Close to home" are all the words and phrases that can be used to describe this outstanding film. This film starring Regina Rodriguez as Jenny, a music journalist preparing to move to California, shows the true emotions of a women during a post breakup. Unlike the movie Acrimony, this film is a perfect example of the positive handlings a women shows in her emotions prior to breaking up out of a long term relationship. This relationship wasn't as toxic as the one in Acrimony; In fact, it was a beautiful relationship that showed both sides understanding each other and truly connecting with one another. What makes this movie so relatable and powerful to women? The random flashbacks that show viewers how beautiful the relationship was, how it lead to the couple b...
