Goofs
During Russ' party, the characters are playing Spades. Diane plays the Ace of Spades, and then Dontae plays the low Joker. Russ then captures all the cards of that hand with the high Joker. Afterwards, Diane criticizes Dontae, saying that he should not have played the low Joker during that hand because the high Joker had not been played yet. Meaning that whoever had the high Joker could take that hand (as Russ did). However, per the rules of Spades, a player must put down the same suit that the first player of that round lays down UNLESS the player is holding no cards of that suit. Diane laid down the Ace of Spades. Dontae was only holding the low Joker (which is considered a Spade) and the eight of Hearts. So he had no choice but to play the low Joker, even though he may not have wanted to do so.

Go See It!

This movie was definitely a good movie to see! Although there are some minor incidences where the movie does not seem to always flow together, the overall idea of the movie was really good. The suspense was excellent in the beginning because it kept you focused on the movie and why the leading lady was acting the way she was. I thought that the law office secretary was hilarious! The last scene between Diane and Dexter was excellent! The drama in that scene was intense. I would also like to add that the two leading men were VERY handsome! Ladies, you all need to see this movie and get a visual of how a man is supposed (and not supposed) to treat a lady. The man from earth is right....the movie does not deserve one star, because it deserves way more credit than that! Only an inexperienced film critic would give this movie (a movie by the way that has sold out in every movie store that I go to) unproductive criticism and a bad rating! GO BUY IT TODAY!
