I won't waste a lot of time going over the whole plot of this film, as it has already been done numerous times. Basically, just a nice, sometimes funny, sometimes serious little film that I just couldn't bring myself to... Full review
Catfish Story with Sanaa Lathan

Catfish is a delightful independent film that allows its audience to experience both emotional extremes from laughter to tears. The story is about a childless African American couple (Harold and Delores Williams) who have adopted and successfully reared two Vietnamese... Full review

This a very, very impressive independent film. The story is funny, painful and moving. The characters are extremely well-written and three-dimensional. The ensemble acting is quite amazing; this film has the best casting I've seen in a while, even the... Full review

But he's never content with actual dialogue, only the comedy buried (at unattainable levels) in ethnic conflict. Acting in an entirely different movie is the phenomenal Sanaa Lathan, the distaff half of "Love and Basketball. ... Full Review

Chi has been singularly fortunate in his stars, Mary Alice and Paul Winfield, veterans of such resources and presence that they make the entire film worth watching. Chi is on far surer ground as a writer-director in the film's more serious moments or at those times when the humor seems to arise naturally from a complicated predicament. ... Full Review

But along the way, theres rat-a-tat comedy dialogue thats overwritten, some clunky dream sequences, and the periodic montage that screams B-movie, or even worse, B-movie satire. When they complain that the cat thinks hes human, its a subtle means of explanation - that poor cat is just the first of the cast to question his identity. ... Full Review
