Not To Be Confused With, nor does it have anything to do with Apple Macintosh & the Steve Jobs story.

It's a happy-go-lucky movie with a feel-good-factor that clearly defines the differences between need & want. Angela Logan had the support she needed. Everything else just slotted into place with perfect timing.

When it's your partner's ambition to ensure that you complete your dreams, then I guess your outlook & productivity can be/is greater, as it was with Angela - even Angela Logan's children supported her ideas as great ideas & saw it as their job to be the best they can be for their mother.

I reckon a lot of people fail & fall flat on their face at the first hurdle of their ventures because their support network of family & friends are too busy with their own ambitious lives. Angela Logan's life became the life of her support network. Through Angela, their issues was raised, addressed & sorted enough to shine brightly for Angela.

From the movie we see that Angela Logan's children weren't in competition against her or with her & didn't feel ashamed of her ideas - ie: they didn't feel their mother or the world 'owes' them more love than what they already have or something better or special. The children didn't appear to in competition with each other - ie: sibling rivalry - neither did they seem to suffer from 'a disease of the times' - a 'neurotic malady' called 'syndrome' - ie: oldest child syndrome, middle child syndrome, youngest child syndrome, only child syndrome etc. Therefore Angela Logan was able to reach her 'Opt Pot" - (Optimum Potential).

The youngest son's attitude made it difficult to watch. The fact that three generations owned this house and is still in debt makes me wonder if this is really a based on a real life movie. However it shows you how important it is to have your sons learn to work early in life and financial planning. Acting is good and the story line is good.

Wanting to watch something that wasn't heavy or portraying the ills of the world I came upon Apple Mortgage Cake. While the film does show some hardcore realities that people face, they're surmounted; the fact that it's a true story makes it inspiring. True, the film is somewhat formulaic, but the acting is fine and the script catchy enough to make it entertaining and fun to watch.

Granted most people don't seem to enjoy movies like this, however, I do and Apple Mortgage Cake is heart warming and entertaining. While not familiar with all the actors in it, the acting was fine! The story of a woman seeking success to keep a roof over her family's head is one so true today. It is joyful and shows how folks can get together to help one another and not asking anything in return. All win. Simple theme but a wonderful message.

Wow: I could not believe how good this really was. Yes I recommend it. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 11/23/2020

I really have to wonder about how IMDB comes up with their ratings as only 1 review was a five and other than that one the rest were all over 8, yet that becomes a 6 on IMDB??? A very well written and acting movie. Heartwarming with very likable characters. This film is so relevant today as the billionaires continue to rape the people of the planet into conditions similar to the lead character.

No hope. A tough place. A story so frequent... The cast are supurb. Excellent scrip and production!

The story, the cast and the entire movie were so wonderful! What a great movie to bring hope during the Christmas season!

Apple Mortgage Cake is a sweet straightforward story about a family with a strong matriarch overcoming adversity. I wish there were more movies made like this that are compelling yet also safe to watch with your family.

It's an 8/10 for the heartwarming family story category.

Divorced mom Angela Logan (Kimberly Elise) has three teen boys and plenty of problems in Teaneck, New Jersey. Despite her troubles, she volunteers at her church. She is a woman of moral fortitude. Melvin George (Kevin Hanchard) re-enters her life. She needs $4k for mortgage in 10 days. With her back to the wall, she has her grandmother's cakes to save her grandmother's house.

This is a great Christian film. It is the kind of charitable Christian story that I can get behind. The drama may be limited, but it is uplifting. The filmmaking is TV level. Despite that, this is a sweet story about a sweet person.
