Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

vincentlynch-moonoi To begin with, whoever was responsible for the hair styles in this film should receive the death penalty. Admittedly, I'm no fan of corn rows, but they're okay. However, with Debbi Morgan and several of the other female actresses, all I could keep thinking of was Medusa! And they certainly must have run out of Afrosheen on the men. Yuck. It was downright distracting. And no, I'm not just an old white guy who doesn't like Blacks. I usually enjoy films with mostly Black casts. Just not this one. Among my favorite actors: Morris Chestnut and the exquisitely beautiful Gabrielle Union.And for that matter, Michael Beach, who at least in terms of acting ability ought to have had the lead credit in this film. He's a reliable, steady actor who never disappoints...and is excellent here...when he can keep his head above water with a less than competent script.I was not impressed with the nominal lead actor here -- Blair Underwood. I used to like him back in his "LA Law" days. But here it seemed like he had to think about acting, which results in one looking like they are thinking about how to act. Gee, I think I should look intense here. Gee, I think I should look evil here. I found it to be rather shallow acting. He gave me the creeps...and he seemed to come to the creepiness all too easily. Hmmmmmmmm.While I didn't like her hair, Debbi Morgan's acting was fine. I thought the script built around her scenes were a bit shallow, as if her character didn't have an ounce of backbone. But she did okay with what was given to her.In terms of the plot, the premise is pretty good. Two Black couples are best of friends, and at a carnival a problem with the Ferris wheel causes one woman (Underwood's wife) to fall off the ride to her death. He then turns on the other couple, attempting to destroy their marriage in revenge. Good, basic plot; nothing too new, but always good for some suspense. And the ending. Let's see, they have a Christmas party, one woman is left behind drunk, so hubby takes her home...even after the psycho stalker has shown up at their party just a little while before. Geeeez! Nothing could happen there. Right? The ending is unusually violent, but well done.Perhaps Tim Reid isn't up to directing a feature film. It all seems very contrived.

luvtzone I watched this movie for the first time with my boyfriend the other night and couldn't help wondering WHY OH WHY DID BLAIR UNDERWOOD AGREE TO DO THIS???? There were so many scenes where my jaw just dropped and the "FORE" swing shot was just too much. I love that is is an all-black cast with prominent actors. Didn't know Tim Reid had directed it. What I didn't like was how completely crazy they made Chance and for me, it was just too much. Michael Beach's character was a bit irritating in the beginning, but as the movie progressed, he steadily became the most sane one of the whole film. Debbie Morgan? Great actress. (absolutely LOVE her in Eve's Bayou) Just can't understand why she wouldn't tell her husband the truth straight up. That would have solved everything. Then again, we wouldn't have a movie, would we? I also want to know WHY Didn't THEY SHOW THE BABY????? Will there be a sequel?????

davidwd1989 I watched this film late at night at 4.00am. I found it so good that i recorded it. Asunder is a brilliant film with a lot of cutting edge scenes which you do not expect. This kind of film gives you a real look on life and how you may consider the real world to be. Blair Underwood's character Chance was brilliant. He became obsessed after rejection which drove him to madness. The story is full of a different set of emotions and feelings. It showed that some people cannot be all they cut out to be. The music was brilliant on this film. Definitely ten out of ten.

seehill Living in a small town and not a real movie goer. I rather depend on purchasing my dvd selections by browsing IMDb. I saw this film here and being a real fan of Tim Reid decided to order it. I really loved this film. the casting, in my opinion, was just perfect. It really kept me on the edge wondering what would happen. Would love to see many more films by Mr. Reid. I guess I'll just have to start movie going to make certain that the funding is available for more of his work. I highly recommend this film.
