A unbiased black males opinion.........

I am all for celebrating, appreciating, recognizing and supporting the arts our culture generates but we must refuse to support half assed films like such. We do not get many many films that show the positive side of black life(good fathers, good jobs, etc.) so when they do appear like Daddy's Little Girls we must have elevated standards. Im sorry but this movie was just poor filmmaking and if it had been made by a mostly white cast it would be straight to DVD and gathering dust as we speak at your local Blockbuster. Im simply stating dont support this film because it's a black film, lets support films because they are good films. Check out Akeelah and The Bee if you want an African American film you can be proud of.

I hope you are not a product of our dibilitating inner city school system young brother or sister. You must learn how to properly respond with words for words are the only ammunition we have that will never run out.

Same argument for all Christian movies regardless of Color. Too much stuff is being put out that is worse then a 70's soap opera and it is propped up anyway. The right projects need to be made the right way so the barriers can fall enough so that you are not making excuses for the shortcomings of a project.

What is an unbiased black male opinion? I think this was a great film, a tear jerker and a good old fashioned good vs. evil script with great acting. I don't see your beef except that you may be more biased than you think. IMHO.

I don't love this movie because it's black; I love this movie because it's great and very relatable.

I love this movie because it was about black people and very touching to me. So, to each his own.

True but i don't mind looking at Gabrielle Union for a hour and a half. It could be a movie about her driving to the store & i'd still watch it LOL
