Just Wright, a review by addicted2comics

The Plot: A physical therapist helps a famous basketball player and falls in love with him, but he is also her sister's fiance.

My Thoughts: You all know it's been a long time to wait between seeing and reviewing, but I have a good excuse!......Ok, I don't.

This was actually a lot better than I thought it would be. It had love, some suspense, and that little flavor of soap opera that keeps the audience engaged. There's some hilarity in there too, mixed with sass. I'll never forget Queen Latifah threatening to pour ice water on that man in his bed if he didn't get ready for physical therapy!!   All in all, a pretty good movie, worth a 4 out of 5.

My Thoughts:

Well, some parts of the movie was really funny. Others were, umm....disturbing? Idk, some humor in this is simply not my taste, though others, my dad included, would find it hilarious.

I enjoyed this series. Though I think it's a wonder that it survived four seasons. The pilot was a fitting introduction.
