Synopsis
The adaptation of Terry McMillan's best-selling novel, about four middle-class, African-American friends, and their continuing efforts to find Mr. Right. The story begins with Bernadine, whose husband John calmly announces that he's leaving her -- for a white woman. Furthermore, the wealthy John has been manipulating his finances, and leaves Bernadine virtually broke. But Bernie gets her revenge, in a rather "fiery" fashion. Then there's Savannah, who re-ignites a relationship with her ex-boyfriend, who's married with children. Meanwhile, dim Robin dates hordes of Mr. Wrongs before going back to Russell, who's also married. Will either come to her senses

5.0 out of 5 stars BRILLIANT FILM!, 24 Aug 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Waiting To Exhale [VHS] [1996] (VHS Tape)
There's only one problem with this film, everytime I watch it I end up crying. I can really identity with one character in particular and her sufferings. They don't make films that can really touch you everytime you watch it, but this can. Absolutely brilliant. I've read the book and that is also excellent - maybe the film is a little inferior to the book, but nevertheless it is excellent in its own right.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most heart-warming, identifiable film I've ever seen, 18 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Waiting To Exhale [VHS] [1996] (VHS Tape)
I was sceptical about watching this film on my 'girlie' friend's recommendation, but so pleasantly surprised. It is one of my favourite films of all time, everyone can identify with at least 1 of the 4 women. It's been said so many times before, but you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll feel the passion, you'll feel all warm inside, at this film which shows friendship never dies. I love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars An easy watching film from a womens point of view., 14 Mar 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Waiting To Exhale [VHS] [1996] (VHS Tape)
I enjoyed watching this film even though the subject matter has been over worked in many a 'girlie' film before. Having read the book I found the film much inferior but as it reminded me of the characters in the book I enjoyed it non the less. If you have time read the book do so, otherwise enjoy an evenings easy viewing in front of the telly.
