What critics compared For Colored Girls to
Writer/director Rick Famuyiwa's ("The Wood") high energy comedy does a neat flip, taking an upstanding student of a single mom (Kimberly Elise, "For Colored Girls") from a tough Black neighborhood who wants to get into Harvard but doesn't want to write about his 'cliched' life, then puts him through the paces of bad boy cliches while maintaining his integrity.
Crystal tries to hide the children's father, Beau Willie (Michael Ealy, "Seven Pounds," "Takers"), asleep in the bedroom, but he comes out and acts in a threatening manner.
