Review of Jumping the Broom

I would still have given this movie a sub-par rating, but that is because it is a chick-flick, aka rom-com. I used to be able to stomach those, but that was way back in the When Harry Met Sally days. Now, they are still telling the same joke, so I am clearly not their target demographic. However, I did get suckered into watching this movie, but my problem with it comes at the crux of the plot twist when she finds out that she is adopted. I think the writers forgot that some people actually ARE adopted, and don't find it so life-altering and earth-shattering. She she didn't seem to have been adopted by a struggling family, and was still near her biological mother, just didn't know it. As an adopted man, my feeling is for her to just get the eff over it. No, do not ruin a wedding, and cuss out the man who RAISED you, but perhaps deal with that ... tomorrow. Or after the honeymoon. I, however, have always known I was adopted, and was not surprised with that information on my wedding day, but I do not feel in any way, shape, nor form that such information should be able to carry a movie. This movie already sucked two hours of my life away like some sort of succubus. I will never watch it again, and when flipping past it on TV, I can't possibly change the channel fast enough.
