Reviews

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Inmechon The movie's only flaw is also a virtue: It's jammed with characters, stories, warmth and laughs.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Serenity3000 If you like dramas that focus on angst, family, heartache, and a gamut of emotions from the characters, Queen Sugar is the drama for you. For the most part, all of the characters are likable. Sugar is a guilty pleasure show, its not too good, but not bad at all. I continue to watch because I do care about the characters. Nova is least favorite mainly because she's a walking hypocrite and filled with contradictions. She tends to judge Charlie, but at the same time she doesn't see her own faults. Charlie is my favorite mainly because she is true to herself, she's smart, and she attempts to do the right thing most of the time, but it seems to always backfire on her. Ralph Angel is a good guy, but he's very emotional, a little too emotional at times. RA doesn't handle conflict well. The most endearing part about RA is his role as a father. He loves his son Blue and it is a welcome sight to see a man putting his child first over a woman and also his work. Sugar is produced by the talented Ava. I would recommend this series to all. So far Season 1 remains the best season, but the jury is still out on Season 3, which recently started. So far its looking good for Sugar
ms-mani1 I love this show! Very heartwarming,great acting. I love the strength of each character. The aunt is an awesome, strong women, who holds the entire family together. Both sisters are awesome as well. Can't wait to see how the relationship between Charley and Remy unfolds! As well as Violet and Hollywood's relationship. This show definitely has my attention. I can hardly wait until the following week after watching current episode/s. I hope it's here to stay. Thanks Oprah! Although it's no surprise that everything you touch turns to gold. Wishing you much success on this and more to come! Keep it up! I'm staying tuned. Happy Holidays!
twosaturns The TV show is not bad. It's so very VERY different from the book, it's somewhat confusing. As usual, with books and movies, I would say the book is 100 per cent better.They made a lot of changes when they brought it to TV.....only 2 siblings, Charley has a daughter and not a son....I could go on and on, but it's better to read the book and decide for yourself.I had to watch the first episode twice to grasp what was going on.Isn't Ralph Angel's wife still alive in the TV show? She's not in the book and I think that has a lot to do with the way he handles his struggles to raise Blue. A lot of people seem to like the show so I am sure it will be a hit. Congrats OWN TV on a winner. (But the book is still better! Enjoy!)
jacobson98 It's like a really bad 1980s prime time soap opera, except most of the characters are black. Every scene features music which is supposed to heighten the drama but instead proves annoying. The characters are stick figures with little depth or interest - the star basketball player, his perfect MBA wife, their perfect children, the MBA wife's brother who's recently out of prison, his adorable son, etc. You will need a scorecard to keep track of the vast cast. The visuals are gorgeous but bear little relationship to the plot. I know I'm supposed to like this because it was created and executive produced by Oprah and Ava DuVernay (the director of Selma). I don't. If you're looking for a new TV show with a black cast, try the far superior Atlanta on FX.
