Jumping the Broom
Producers T. D. Jakes and Tracey E. Edmonds invite you to the marriage of Sabrina Watson (Paula Patton, Precious) and Jason Taylor (Laz Alonso, Fast & Furious), who just might be the perfect couple. Unfortunately, their families are a perfect recipe for disaster. Mrs. Watson (Angela Bassett) has an upper-crust sensibility that matches her family's Martha's Vineyard estate, where Jason's straight-out-of-Brooklyn mom (Loretta Devine) seems utterly out of place. When the families gather for Jason and Sabrina's wedding, it becomes clear that each side has its traditions... and its secrets. When uptown meets downtown, the truth comes out - and only one question remains. Will this couple endure the hysterical and harrowing trials of love and finally jump the broom?

This movie was average. There were way too many storylines happening at once which was a great way to use this dynamic, talented cast but in the end none of the stories were told particularly well.
I'd recommend this for a night when you are looking for something light and fun with a little (emphasis on little) bit of depth.jumping the broom - douglasles
I did not make it through this one... the pace was slow, the clash of the classes was too obvious and when I see a great actress like Angela Bassett in such a production , I wonder why? I would not recommend this film: it seemed like it was trying too hard !Just O.k. - hometheater
This movie is just O.K. - wouldn't watch it twice.
It was abit slow and at first it didn't really grab me but by the end, it actually brought a tear to my eye. So it had some comedy, romance, infuriating characters and in the end, a good message.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
