Men say it's a man bashing movie, but it really puts a mirror on the mistakes we make over and over with no good men lol. And I love how they always had each other at the end.
@shavonnestacia2865 I read the book too, and it wasn't bashing men at all. Terry does a good job at mirroring real life. Disappearing acts was good, too.
@@jgirlinluv55 Out of the 3 she had at the time (mid 90's), Disappearing Acts was my favorite book! The HBO movie of it was i-ight. Mama was good as well.
I agree with you that it's not on Tariq to maintain the relationship with his dad. I had a similar relationship with my own dad. Long story short, I cut him out completely last year.
That fine Asian man narrating in the beginning was Theo...awesome radio voice, and he has aged like fine wine. love this move. That first scene with Angela and her scumbag husband...also the Savannah monologue at the party when she sat at the table with the woman.... she was being sarcastic, as to how the other woman reacted to her and was verbalizing what she thought they were thinking. She was not desperate. Great acting and directing. I love that you are reciting dialog, girl I was saying it with you!!!!
You think Savannah was being sarcastic?! I don't know....she did mess with a married man later on in the movie. But I also can see how she was just annoyed by how the women responded to her, so you're probably right lol
Angela Bassett is beyond the master for a lot of dramatic roles❤👏🏼you should watch What’s love got to do with it (1993) she did get a nomination for academy award for best actress!! Probably one of her best roles!! She was also amazing in Notorious (2009)as well! I recommend if you react to those as well💯
Hey Sista I hope you have a lovely weekend!! Yes I’ve seen Waiting to Exhale (1995) so many times over the years!! RIP Whitney Houston🕊️she was so young in this film, it saddens that she pass at the age of 48 & rip as well to her daughter, Bobbi!! Angela Bassett was beyond a phenomenal actress, she still looks stunning for her age!! This movie was wild af lmfao🤣 with a lot of wild relationships!! Have a nice Sunday Sista❤
This movie was definitely wild! And when I was younger I thought the relationships just seemed outrageous but now I know these relationships are so legit! 😂😂😂 I experienced some of these things myself
Mmmmm, the soundtrack to this movie. So good. All 4 leads did amazing. Not the "pursed" face with the 'Disclaimer.' I'm done, lol. Not pre-emptively forewarning of impending Block Barrage, if they try it. Savannah's read at the beginning still kills me. Bernadine is better than me cuz after EVERYTHING that she'd done for him & been through... he wouldn't have made it to the party. It would have been the reenactment from the limo scene in WLGTDI, lol. So good.
I never knew Bernie was aware of the other woman to an extent before he left her. Damn. I was only 8 or 9 when my mom and her friends took us with them to see this movie. I didn't know what was going on lol. We were in the front row because it was so packed.
Interesting, you mentioned the desert. I feel like there is some symbolism in the setting being in Arizona. Only one of the characters was able to find true love like finding water in a desert hard to find.
😂 definitely you can definitely tell she ain't playing about the blocking she said you can have it anyway😂 my favorite part is with Wesley Snipes and Angela everything about that scene was just chill a lot of learning from that scene and the homeboy said just call me big papa😂😂 definitely looking forward to the next reaction keep striving and moving forward girl much support
I had to make it clear because folks were showing out on my Boomerang reaction lol It was a block party over there! 😂😂I hated to cut the Wesley and Angela scene out but this video would have been too long with it then I would have been invited to the TH-cam block party lol. But their story is my favorite and I really wish they had gotten together in the end. Thank you for your support!!! 💕💕
@@SistaGurlonFilms homegirl facts I hope Wesley and her would have got together two I feel you on that one but keep on dropping that fire content really enjoying it most definitely going to be supporting I'm talking to these crazy folks in your comments before you block them🤣 peace and wellness to you on to the next reaction👍✌️💪
A hot take from me is that Terry McMillan’s adaptation of her books into movies are better than the actual book for the most part. The only book I like from her is literally Waiting to Exhale. A classic all around.
Interesting...I hear a lot of people say the opposite. They hate the movies and love the books. I know many elements from the book were changed in this film adaptation but since I didn't read the book, I cannot really confirm that
Me and my Sisirer sneaked into the movie theater to see this movie, and I remember the women in the theater were very excited to see Wesley Snipes. Everything about this movie screams classic.
Honestly best movie soundtrack of all time ❤ Love this film (still relevant today) and this cast…Angela, Whitney, Loretta & Lela….TOP TIER ❤ “Would it be better if she were black?” “ No! It’d be better if YOU were black!” 💀💀💀 PS you being able to quote this movie like me is AMAZING 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😭😭🤣🤣💀 PSS the fact that Bernadette’s monologue in the closet was IMPROV!……Angela MFkin Bassett yall 👑❤️👏🏽
That scene was improv?!! Wow!! Angela is really the GOAT!!!! I try not to recite lines in movies because I think some people find it annoying but in real life...I am saying all the words!! 😂😂
@@SistaGurlonFilmsthis was the first video of you I saw and I’m an INSTANT subscriber ❤ This movie still hits !! Yes Angela herself said it was improv! Definitely deserved an Oscar nom!!! Keep Quoting girl !!!😂😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I just saw this video on my TH-cam feed! Saw this movie when i was 12 yo on HBO. You're right about watching the movie as an adult woman, a totally new perspective for sure!
I don't know if I can do Soul Food. My own grandmother passed away around the time that movie came out and it still breaks me down every time Big Mama dies. I don't know if I want everyone seeing me ugly cry on camera lol
Love your channel. Black girl magic ✨ Please react to the movie B.A.P.S. I want to know your honest opinion on this movie; it received mixed reviews but I actually think it’s a classic. It seems to be a rendition of Pretty Woman. 🔥🔥🔥
This movie is the quintessential chick flick. Savannah’s mom had zero standards, Gloria was the only one who found true love, Marvin was the only decent man in this movie, Robin didn’t know her self worth & Bernadette was the only one who deserved better. John played by Michael Beach & Kenneth played by Dennis Haysbert are the go to ain’t shit husbands & fathers. Here are some fun facts: Lionel played by Jeffrey D. Sams, Michael Beach & John Jr. played by Brandon Hammond were also in Soul Food. John & Savannah’s daughter played by Jazz Raycole was the original Claire on My Wife & Kids. Troy was played by Mykelti Williamson. Savannah’s mom was played by Starlita Dupois. She was in Odd Jobs, Hollywood Shuffle, South Central, Strapped, Three Strikes & Friday After Next.
19:46 He’s lucky she’s even giving him this amount of conversation after some TRASH loving he just gave her🥴🥴🤣🤣🤣 Most women woulda cancelled him like Nino & spread “‘minute man” rumors💯
Men say it's a man bashing movie, but it really puts a mirror on the mistakes we make over and over with no good men lol. And I love how they always had each other at the end.
Yesssss!!!! Exactly!!! The only men that should be triggered by this movie are the ones that act like the trifling men in it!
IMO, This movie was praising good black Men. Alot of Men were taking this movie at face valve when it 1st came out.
@shavonnestacia2865 I read the book too, and it wasn't bashing men at all. Terry does a good job at mirroring real life. Disappearing acts was good, too.

Babyface didn’t miss when it came to this soundtrack
Not one skip on this album!!! 10/10!!!

I'm sorry to hear that! But you have to do what feels right for your mental and emotional well-being! ❤️❤️

Well clearly she knows since she plugged him in. That's who they should've had a love scene with😍 SWITCH IT UP
Whatever happened to Theo?
@@literarylady1125 Rumors have it that he’s now working in tech and living quietly, I can't find any updates so we wish him well.
@@TheAshMcG I remember him from Moesha. He was fine lol
55:04 "You weren't this self righteous when you were fucking my brains out" i always laughing my ass off in that line🤣🤣🤣
Because he was right!!!! 😂😂
@@SistaGurlonFilmsKenneth wasn’t shit either but he did have a point there. You know what they say about broken clocks 🕰️

She should have won for What's Love.... honestly! That movie is a tough watch for me, so I am not a fan but Angela did an amazing job portraying Tina!

One of the best movie theatre experiences I ever had!!! Our theatre was packed too! I was 13 and could not believe my Mama let me go see this lol
Yeah that's weird why act like that if you already knew, why cause SHE'S white GIRL BYE ms Angie whatever the characters name is
Bernie's son is the Ahmad from Soul Food, I wonder what happened to him.
I said the same thing! I think I edited out of the video lol But where is ol Ahmad these days?!
That scene with poor Robin and ol knobby knees. 😂 I felt so sorry for her. Musta been dryer than the Sahara. 😂😅😂
😂😂😂😂 I cringe every time!!! It had to be the driest in all the land
Interesting, you mentioned the desert. I feel like there is some symbolism in the setting being in Arizona. Only one of the characters was able to find true love like finding water in a desert hard to find.
"He looks like an extra in a PM Dawn video." 💀

Your attitude throughout the whole Kenneth part tickled me... Thanks girl 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣😭
😂😂😂 Kenneth was the worst! And so was Savanah (ol side chick self!) Lol
I laughed so hard at all the adjectives you used to describe Lyonel. 😆
His raggedy tail!!! 😂😂
52:22 this had me-🤣🤣😂
Because he had too much audacity!!! Trying to make rules in a house where he pays zero bills is crazy!! 😂😂😂
@@SistaGurlonFilms ❤️😂

It was a good time for movies!
😆"go to hell expeditiously". I think he was always married. I love this movie!
That's what I was thinking too! And if that is the case, then Savannah is extra trifling
Honestly best movie soundtrack of all time ❤ Love this film (still relevant today) and this cast…Angela, Whitney, Loretta & Lela….TOP TIER ❤

Enjoyed watching this with you and great comments.
Thank you for watching!!!
This gotta be the best movie reaction ever. I was saying all the lines too.😂😂😂
Thank you!!! I'm always worried that me reciting the lines annoys people 😩
Please do Soul Food next!
I don't know if I can do Soul Food. My own grandmother passed away around the time that movie came out and it still breaks me down every time Big Mama dies. I don't know if I want everyone seeing me ugly cry on camera lol
This movie represented our parents generation.
Never seen the movie, loved the soundtrack back then and your review
That soundtrack is 10/10 for sure! Thank you for watching!!!
I've always loved this film. " Now I am keeper at the goddamn zoo" - Whitney 😅 lol ok so maybe you could react to SOUL FOOD next ? Please 🙏
I have to to get myself together emotionally for Soul Food. That movies makes me ugly cry every time
This is a great movie! I love your great reaction!
Thank you for watching!!!! 💕💕
@@SistaGurlonFilms You're welcome 😊!
The actor playing Troy is Mykleti Williams
Sorry that's Mykleti Williamson
Gloria had it going on and a poolhouse! I'm jealous.
Now that you mention it...did they ever say what she did for a living? Her house was super nice!
@@SistaGurlonFilms She owned her own salon. Bernie made her cut her hair off about her 2 timing husband, John left her.
Love that you know this movie by heart like me!❤😂❤...we was saying it together!
I messed up some of the words 🤦🏽♀️but the passion was there! lol
Why did you do our girl Gloria like that with the plate🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀🤣🤣🤣😭
😂😂😂
Love your channel. Black girl magic ✨

There's a hilarious 😂 parody of this movie here on TH-cam called Exhale The Waiting to Exhale Parody. It's all gay Black guys!
I have to look that up! I love a good parody!
@@SistaGurlonFilms I think you'll enjoy it 😉.
Girl Leon bony behind looks like a temptation shirtless and we thought he was cute then omg😮😮
😂😂 Leon was only cute to me in Above the Rim. He looks better now that he's older
I can tell you liked the thugs back in the days. You always laughing at the good guys in the films lol
Well that was an ignorant, inaccurate assumption you just jumped out the window with
Can you do Love Jones at some point?
Ohhhh that would be great for Valentines Day!!!!
19:46 He’s lucky she’s even giving him this amount of conversation after some TRASH loving he just gave her🥴🥴🤣🤣🤣 Most women woulda cancelled him like Nino & spread “‘minute man” rumors💯
You're not wrong!!! 😂😂😂
I've watched this movie too many times, and the book is good too. Besides John I couldn't stand Kenneth
Oh yea!!!Kenneth was definitely 1st runner-up for the scumbag award!
Russell also known as Cynthia Bailey's ex-man
I blame this on TH-cam
Blame what on youtube?
The soundtrack could've been much better with a different roster of artists. Half of the songs on it are skips.
What?!!! I have a respectfully disagree
Waiting to exhale
Sidenote, but you are gorgeous.
Thank you so much!!!!
👍🏿👍🏿
You need to stop talking and let the movie do what it do blogger
Or... you need to go watch the movie on your own time and stop trying to watch movies for free on youtube loser 🙄
