Mo Monotomy Mo Mundane
Was really looking forward to watching this film. The description of the movie leads you to believe it is a hard luck to riches film with a blues music theme. Despite some wonderful actors like Samuel L Jackson, Wesley Snipes and Denzil Washington, the script is mundane and doesn't go anywhere. To add insult to injury, the music also played is jazz but the type of jazz which is completely self indulgent for the player, and unless you're into this sort of thing, it would take you years to work out what it is they were supposed to be playing.
In my humble opinion, don't waste your time with this movie. Originally filmed in 1990's, it is a film that doesn't go anywhere.
very good
goob biographical film. lots of humour, action, romance and sexy scenes with musical integration
