The Brothers

Rest assured the male version of Waiting to Exhale has finally hit theaters, thanks to novelist Gary Hardwick. His first feeble attempt behind the camera is this convoluted comedy about four sexy African American men looking for love. First there is the playboy pediatrician whose nightmares scare him into dating a seemingly ideal woman with an adulterous past. Then there is the handsome, married brother with an inadequate sex life who is burdened with mommy issues, or maybe it is the good-looking lawyer with jungle fever who has the mommy issues, though it could be the engaged executive with the chiseled chest who has the mommy issues. The plot continues to bounce aimlessly from one character's soap opera life to the next, filling all ends of the dating spectrum and trying to provide fresh insight into the philosophies of men and women. The only thing being provided though is endless eye candy from the supermodel-filled cast. Sorry, Gary, but stick to writing novels.
