Defective after less than 2 months
on May 3, 2014

I purchased this product on Feb 24, 2014. It is May 3, 2014 and for the past couple of days we have learned that the microphone for both handsets does not work. We can call or receive calls, and can hear the person on the other end of the call, but no one can hear us. After researching online, resetting by unplugging the bases and removing the batteries several times, it still does not work. I will be sending back to the manufacturer out of sheer principal, but I know that I will invest a bit more and in a different brand after this experience. It almost goes without saying that I am extremely annoyed that it's been less than 2 months (not even 1 year) for this product to die.

Pleasantly surprised

I'd heard about this film for almost 2 years and was glad to find that even though it did not get theatrical distribution, that it was made available for us to see. This had a great story that was unpredictable as far as tearjerkers are concerned. The performances we very touching, and it's so good to see Mario Van Peebles directing more film. Curtis Jackson surprised the heck out of me with her very good performance, and kudos to Lynn Whitfield, Ray Liotta and the other supporting character actors. I was engrossed from the first frame and have recommended this film to all of my friends.
What's great about it: story, acting
I would recommend this to a friend!

I WISH I could get my money back

I try to support indie films and straight to video movies that just couldn't secure distribution, but I could not stomach this film. The acting was horrible. I saw the original stage play when I was a kid so I was already familiar with the story, and I have no problem with the "creative" license that was taken to change things around a bit, but the acting, the editing, the script... ugh, I'm done.
What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Everything
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
