which also starred Christina Milian. This is a good thing as the team seems to play well to Milian's strengths. She is comedic without seeming silly; her character grows and deals with her setbacks without appearing annoying or unrealistic. She sets a good balance, and the rest of the supporting cast follows her lead. No matter how funny or charismatic they are, they don't take attention away from our main character.
In the same way, the supporting cast also helps to make the story engaging and fun. Jay Pharoah is perhaps the most well-known of the cast, having been a cast member on. And Pharoah does a great job playing Jason, a man who is caught between his past and his future. And even though I did get frustrated at his inability to make a decision, the character seemed sincere.
The one thing that you can't avoid about these films is that they are predictable. We have some idea of how the plotline is going to go after about 30 minutes in. But there is comfort in the predictability and the familiar that even though we know that Erica will soften when Beverley is talking about her relationship with Jason, or what's going to happen when Caleb stays the night at her place, we are still enjoying watching it happen.
