We’ve all heard the saying “always a bridesmaids but never the bride” well this was Paula Patton’s characters (Montana Moore’s) problem when she learns her younger sister (Lauren London) is getting married.
Paranoid and desperate about not having a date or a mate, Montana sets out to run into all of her ex-boyfriends in hopes of rekindling a romantic connection in time for her sister’s wedding.
This movie is loaded with all of societies stereotypes about the light skin female vs. the dark skin female and the over obsessive, altar obsessed mother (played by Jennifer Lewis) whose been married five times pressuring Montana about not being married.
The film devolves into one scene after another of Montana running through airports, bumping into her ex’s, dinner montages and flights around the country, in a desperate attempt to hopefully hook-up.
Directed by David E. Talbert, he delivers with a strong supporting cast and some handsome leading men however, chemistry you can fake, but charm is far harder to pull off, and “Baggage Claim” never quite succeeds on that front. The character in the movie was desperate and that’s always a turnoff!

Paula Pattons character was desperate on top of the fact that IMO she can’t act!
Yeah I wasted my money goes to show you don’t support a movie just because it has an all black cast 😦

Morning Adriane,
No, Paula Patton isn’t the greatest actress ever, but what else is new?

I don’t like her as a actress either Adrianne,
she always has the big fake smile plastered on her face. And I think she over-acts a lot too.

I sorta lost all respect for her after playing off what her husband did with that floozy after the VMA’s.

I guess her agent is trying to make her the new “it girl?” I don’t find her to be a particularly talented actress.

Tracy I agree with your observation.
Seeing a beautiful and successful woman wrap her entire self-worth around getting married as soon as possible isn’t just antiquated and unfunny, it’s insulting.

Frankly, Montana is far too easy to snag a husband, making the only man genuinely interested in marrying her the one who hasn’t had sex with her yet. Stay interesting ladies by keepin ya legs closed.

I went to see it last night and I liked it. It a movie, not a documentary and I found it entertaining. I go to the movies to be entertained, not enlightened or to get an “ah-ha” moment. Now with that being said, Paula Patton always seems “high” to me and she can’t act but the movie itself provide me with some good laugh out loud moments! I loved that mama…”now you know you don’t need that cookie, gone sit down”
On another note, some good black movies seem to be coming out over the next few months…good to see us on the big screen.
