I Had High Hopes For This Movie |
I was going to buy this off of Americancivilwar but something told me to rent it first and I'm glad I did. This could have been a real good movie with a better script. The acting was superb; I was so excited to see Rae Dawn Chong, but other than that I was so NOT impressed with this movie. I'd have to watch it twice to really figure out was going on because the story is so all over the place you just really have no idea whats going on. Only thing is, it's so boring I couldn't even bother to watch it again. Honestly, I was quite angry by the time the movie ended. I'm not going to discourage anyone from buying this, but I will encourage you to rent before you buy. And if you're still intent on buying then please watch the movie and try not to be distracted by other things because it deserves attention.....ugh!!
This movie is certainly being removed from my shopping cart. |

Total Disappointment...not worth watching |
|
At first glance given the cast line up, I thought Constellation would be a great movie. However, The characters and the set were the only good parts of this film. As for the storyline, it is totally all over the place. Whoever wrote this movie seemingly had a bunch of ideas and just threw them into one movie with no order or smooth transition from one scene to the next. The movie jumps around too much and you have no idea why this scene is following that scene. Totally unorganized and poorly written and directed. The storyline is difficult to follow from all the inconsistencies in the plot, and I never really saw a love story develop like the cover described. I just got it as a rental and I want my money back! |

Jumbled but a moving film |
First off thos movie had an excellent cast with a hard job of connecting the people in this movie. It took me a while to know how and why the people were connected. It was a moving story of the family of Caramel Boxer. Her life, love, and hurt were presented in a sad, but tasteful fashion. I want to give this movie 3 and 1/2 stars because it was emotional, driven, and beautifully written, but the scenes were jumbled and not inspiring. I will have to watch it again, because I see that the director wanted the movie to be like a constellation. You may only see one star (person), but they are apart of the whole constellation (family). The quotes from this movie were amazing. I am going to add them to my facebook page. Be patient with this movie and you will not regret it.
I would very much like to have had a soundtrack to this movie. The songs were moving and excellent. |

History lesson |
Constellation
I enjoyed the movie because of the time period it was made in.
I don't like to watch racism movies, but I liked the story and Billy Dee Williams.
I liked the lesson of forgiveness. |
