D-Xirable Movie Time! Girls Trip!

Hello, my wonderful and amazing loves!

After work today, my Godmother, Ms. Angie, and my twiny/big sis, Ja, picked me up and we went to see the movie, Girls Trip, at the Cinemark Palace in the Plaza! We met up with Aunt Pam for the movie. This movie was so good! It was so funny and hilarious! We were laughing the entire time! Such an awesome cast! Jada Pinkett Smith, Queen Latifah, Regina Hall, Tiffany Haddish, Larenz Tate, Mike Colter, Kate Walsh, and Kofi Siriboe! And the setting was awesome too! It was set in New Orleans during the Essence Festival, and it looked like so much fun! It was a great movie about friendship and being real and true to who you are. We ALL enjoyed the movie! By the way, Larenz Tate is so handsome and gorgeous! And he doesn't age!

“I am beautiful. I am strong,” says Ryan Pierce (Regina Hall)

Movie Synopsis: Ryan (Regina Hall) has it all, or at least that’s what the title of her bestselling book claims, but her finely crafted life with her husband, Stewart (Luke Cage’s Mike Colter), is missing something: the Flossy Posse, the lifelong friends she’s gradually drifted away from. When a work opportunity takes her to New Orleans for the weekend, she decides to reconnect, inviting them all with her to make the most of the VIP treatment. There’s Sasha (Queen Latifah), a celebrity gossip blogger hiding her failing site behind steely bravado; Lisa (Jada Pinkett Smith), whose life as a single mother has left her love life lacking; and the bolshy, recently fired Dina (Tiffany Haddish), who remains unaware of the problems she causes around her.

This movie was amazing! It was outrageously hilarious and funny! This movie is definitely one to see! We all loved it! We laughed the entire time! I just LOVE their friendship! It was beautiful! Plus, this movie was black girl magic! Awesome movie, amazing cast, a wonderful time! My favorite character was Dina! She was off the chain!

Hope you enjoyed the pics and post!

Love always,

D-Xirable Movie Time! The Best Man Holiday!

Hello my wonderful and amazing loves!

Yesterday, my little sis Nico, my big sis Ja, and I went to see The Best Man Holiday. My big sis Ja and my little sis Nico are such huge fans of the first movie, The Best Man, that they wanted to go see the sequel. I was a fan of the first film too, however, I really just went to see the sequel out of pure curiosity.

The movie synopsis: Throughout the years, there have been marriages, children and divorces—not to mention all the love and heartbreak that accompany a life well lived—but the group has not been able to manage a proper get-together since Lance and Mia’s wedding. But that’s all about to be remedied. When the college friends finally reunite over the Christmas holidays, they will discover just how easy it is for long-forgotten rivalries and passionate romances to be reignited.

After watching this movie, we all agreed that it was a beautiful, heartfelt movie that will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride. There were funny moments, sad moments, and frustrating moments that will make laugh, cry, and even upset.

The highlight of the film for us was the "Air band" performance! It was when Lance (played by Morris Chestnut), Harper (played by Taye Diggs), Quentin (played by Terrence Howard), and Julian (played by Harold Perrineau) started lip-syncing and dancing to New Edition's "Can You Stand the Rain?". It was so cute and so funny! It was the most enjoyable scene!

Morris Chestnut is so handsome and fine! His character, Lance, would do anything for his beautiful and sweet wife, Mia (played by the beautiful Monica Calhoun). It was just so beautiful! In my opinion, they had the best (and saddest) story line.

Terrence Howard is good-looking as well. His character, Quentin, was so funny and brutally honest. His character was not the most sensitive person but he was very honest. Melissa De Sousa's character, Shelby, still brought the drama with her. And Eddie Cibrian made a handsome addition to the cast as Brian, Jordan's love interest.

This movie is definitely an emotional roller coaster. And if you're the crying type, bring a box of tissues! The Best Man Holiday is definitely a movie for the ladies! Again, this is just my opinion (along with my sisters' opinion) of the movie.

Hope you enjoyed the post!

With love,

LaTasha B.
