"The Fighting Temptations" is a tough film to figure out audience-wise. The songs that are in "The Fighting Temptations," which is the name Darrin gives his gospel group, are the only things good in this movie. ... Full Review

The Fighting Temptations has some very funny moments, and the film celebrates the power of gospel music to bring people togethera good reason to get the soundtrack. There are several potential messages hereabout telling the truth, about having faith, about the value of church, family and community, about redemptionbut none of them are fleshed out well enough to provide more than a warm, agreeable feeling about good gospel music and whatever the movie's trying to say. ...
