I Do... I Did! (2009)

Too much of everything

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

The pace, the acting, the plot, everything about this movie was contrived and awful. Im only writing this review to warn unsuspecting viewers like myself - who regrets the time wasted - Don't do it! Black Directors, producers, actors get serious this is exploitation of your audience and it almost put me off black movies for life! How much money was spent making this? How much profit was made ripping off the people that paid to watch this? Im making a mental note to never watch anything by this director. Actors don't compromise your craft by participating in such movies - don't let desperation kill your career, read the script! There is nothing good that can be said about this movie nothing at all!

I love this movie....very creative and different storyline....I can't believe the negative feedback...I have this in my collection and I watch it every time BET shows it......great cast.....great music....I want the soundtrack to the film....Cherie looked great as did Shar Jackson.....Marcus Patrick also did a great job and Antwan Tanner was phenomenal...I look forward to the next film that Cherie does should be another classic film....say what you want but BET is playing it heavy....can't too many movies say that....I don't get the racist overtones people talk about though....it is typical everyday life....the writing was also great for this film.

I just watched this movie on BET. I was disgusted throughout and had to turn it off when the characters, Vivian and Marcus, start professing their love for each other at the hospital bedside of his critically ill wife, Jenny, WHO JUST GAVE BIRTH TO MARCUS'S CHILD. I was disgusted, shocked and appalled. I don't understand why the writers, Cherie Johnson and Charisse Edey, thought that this was the best resolution for the circumstances in the movie. It's as if they have some warped sense of justice. Furthermore, if the writers wanted Vivian and Marcus to reunite, they should have made the Vivian character more appealing to the audience. Instead, she spends most of the movie sleeping with Marcus and mentally and physically terrorizing Jenny (who is pregnant) which ultimately caused the poor woman's demise. The Jenny character is an unwitting victim of Marcus's infidelity and Vivian's vindictive and childish behavior. There are so many great writers who can't even get their stories produced because they lack the right contacts. I don't even know why or how this movie received the funding (though apparently minimal based on the poor quality of the production) and the "okay" to be made and ultimately televised to apparently disgust the viewers. BET! Can you hear me?! Evolve! Grow! Be More Selective! You can do it. I know you can.

I really can't believe I watched that!The previews were misleading, making you think that it was some light hearted comedy, but the previews were the best that it gets. I did not see it as a comedy as they claimed. The ending was terrible too! Clever title though, I see why they called it what they did. That was the only good part of it.There was so many ethical things wrong with this story. The story should not have allowed the two people to sleep together, it was "happily ever after" for the two who ended up together, even though he was basically cheating on his current wife. Why couldn't the writers make him man up to his current wife before he got back together with his first coma wife. And it wasn't coma wife's fault that the woman fainted after giving her soda and over-salting the pregnant wife's food? Is that supposed to be funny? Is that some light hearted joke? I don't think so! Lame!
