 | I do not know why Someone is downing the movie for interracial scence there was not a white actress in the movie. Mari Morrow is Black and Italian and she is considered a Black Actress. She was in How to be a Player and a lot of other Black Films. I thought this film was very good. The Plot could have been better but the ending was unexpected to me. The cast was strong. |

| EXCELLENT. Everybody that is hating on this flick need to stop right now. This movie was good and Mikeh (however his name is spelled) is so damn sexy it's pathetic. His name was Silk in the movie and he was supposed to be hired to kill Debbi (the wife of a script writer). Her husband (Howard) wanted a good story and so he hired Silk to pull off the hit. When Silk arrived as the uninvited guest at their home, he instantly fell for Debbi. The storyline turns here. It starts to get good when he goes against the husband's (Howie) wishes and goes after Debbi in a lustful way. Howard sees his plans going wrong and he takes over and tries to pull the hit off his self, but Silk is already in love with Debbi and risks his own life to save hers. This movie was unrealistic in a lot of ways, but damn it was low budget so what do you expect. It was still good and entertaining. |

| Okay, I read the first few reviews and I must straighten up a couple of things.
#1 There was no interracial sex going on, so I don't know what that reviewer was talking about.
#2 The subtitles can be turned off. I turned them off two seconds after the movie started. You have to click on "English" twice as though you're actually turning it on, but it works.
Now onto the movie: Originally I thought this movie was absolutely stupid and predictable. A woman being so free to roam her home with a stranger while her husband is more concerned with his script is highly unlikely. Being thrown into a jacuzzi and not experiencing the heat is all but impossible. A black man letting another black man into his home and not watching him the whole time or asking to see his car that supposedly has problems is flat-out not going to happen. A friend going to another friend's house, being asked to leave, being so indignant about leaving, and then not having any plans to interrupt why she wanted her to leave seems really far-fetched. Why someone would have a gun in one hand and use the other one to fight instead is just laughable. And for a man to be so in love that he's willing to let a woman he loves walk so freely when he's so dangerous is almost embarassing.
But the plot thickens! I appreciate the "no hesitation" which added a little realism to the plot. And when I started finding out the reasoning behind all of the comments I made above, then I was like "Ohhhh! Okay!" On top of that, honestly, Mekhi Phifer is so damn sexy, I really stopped caring about the plot and just admired him. It was even more interesting to see his ex-wife act in the film with him and do the two things that they argued about publicly to other people (well, "act" like they were doing anyway). You know how Monique said Denzel died sexy? Well, the last man in the end who died (I won't say who) died very sexy (minus all the slobber! Gross!) The "convicts" sense of humor cracked me up too. And Wanye? Wow. I would've laughed at someone choosing him as the thug, but he did a great job.
This movie is definitely on the low-budget side, but they picked the right actors/actresses to make this movie decent. |

| This movie was an example of poor acting at it's finest. It is clearly obvious why it was produced in the first place. Black males love movies where black males have sex....either consensual or forcibly.....with white females. This "In Your Face" sex farce was intended to stimulate black males......piss off white males........and possibly titilate white females with Socially Taboo sexual content, in which they are condemmed as Racist if they do not openly consider sex with black males as an option. This theme is prevalent in Perverse Hollywood these days....just ask Denzel. If it Shocks or Angers the watcher...they will push it to the limits....in the copious name of Artistic Expression. The rest of us are supposed to clap our hands and pretend to be entertained...when the agenda of this movie....and others just like it....is to Empower black males in a predominately white society. I don't support this garbage......or it's message. |

| If you have the choice between watching the old versions of the Twillight Zone and Uninvited Guest, watch the Twillight Zone. My eyebrow was arched in confusion the whole time... and all I could think was... "This is Bull!". The whole movie in theory was a big 'free-writing' assignment. The plot(s) had no rhyme or reason. Give me "Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder" anytime from the Twillight Zone instead of that ball of confusion! |
