I Do... I Did! (2009)

I can't believe I sat there and watched this whole thing! I guess I was hoping that eventually it'll get better but it kept getting worst and worst! The acting is terrible, the story is unbelievable, and this movie just seemed like one big joke instead of a serious film that people actually spent money on to make! Take my advice, don't waste two hours of your life on this film, you'll regret it, I promise you! It is supposed to be some kind of drama-comedy type of film, but the "drama" aspect of it was cheesy and the "comedy" of it was no where to be found. The characters were so lame and story will leave you upset all the way until the bitter end. Terrible film!

Remember those days when independent black filmmakers were making these terrible, extra low budget, poorly executed movies and Starz used to air them, such turds like Nothing' 2 Lose (2000), G (2002), and almost everything from Maverick Entertainment? I guess these type of films are still being made.This film is atrocious in every way. The camera work was boring, uninspired and inept. The lighting was flat and in most cases, nonexistent. The writing lacked plausibility and depth, with the most unmotivated, unlikable characters in the history of film. The editing was sloppy. The performances were melodramatic. Too much arguing, forcing conflict and drama in scenarios where there clearly wasn't any.Whoever said the film is racist is right. The white wife was treated worst than anything I have ever seen in this genre of movie. The black people got away with everything from totally disrespecting the white wife in her own home to slapping her while she was pregnant. I truly believed that the writers wrote this steaming pile to vent their obvious hatred for white women. Well, their effort was an epic fail as I ended up only caring about the white wife.As for Vivian, the so-called protagonist, I was praying a building would fall from the sky and land on her, crushing her like the little roach she was.Every thing about this movie was insanely absurd, especially the ending. There wasn't any redeeming factors or any justice, morally or figuratively. It was just a racist, idiotic waste of HD files that shows how messed up black people are.

I just watched this movie on BET. I was disgusted throughout and had to turn it off when the characters, Vivian and Marcus, start professing their love for each other at the hospital bedside of his critically ill wife, Jenny, WHO JUST GAVE BIRTH TO MARCUS'S CHILD. I was disgusted, shocked and appalled. I don't understand why the writers, Cherie Johnson and Charisse Edey, thought that this was the best resolution for the circumstances in the movie. It's as if they have some warped sense of justice. Furthermore, if the writers wanted Vivian and Marcus to reunite, they should have made the Vivian character more appealing to the audience. Instead, she spends most of the movie sleeping with Marcus and mentally and physically terrorizing Jenny (who is pregnant) which ultimately caused the poor woman's demise. The Jenny character is an unwitting victim of Marcus's infidelity and Vivian's vindictive and childish behavior. There are so many great writers who can't even get their stories produced because they lack the right contacts. I don't even know why or how this movie received the funding (though apparently minimal based on the poor quality of the production) and the "okay" to be made and ultimately televised to apparently disgust the viewers. BET! Can you hear me?! Evolve! Grow! Be More Selective! You can do it. I know you can.

On the day of their wedding, MARCUS AND VIVIAN have an automobile accident. VIVIAN ends up in a coma. After a year, the doctor tells Marcus it is hopeless. Marcus leaves the hospital thinking his wife is being taken off life support. He does not wait for her to die.In less than a year, he has a pregnant wife --- DUE ANY DAY! No time was wasted nor was there a funeral for the first wife.Marcus learns his first wife is alive; HE IS STILL MARRIED. So, he brings her to his home and she lives with him and his second wife-- because she has no where to go and no money. Note: when Marcus goes to the hospital to pick up this wife -- she is dressed in her wedding dress which is covered in blood. I wonder if that was supposed to be funny. What man would leave a hospital before the wife who is supposedly dying -- dies? Why no funeral? He thought she was dead? UNBELIEVABLE!!! The second wife stresses out and goes into labor. She gives birth to a baby girl and now the second wife IS IN A COMA. While her bedside, Marcus tells her he loves her. But, he is in love with the first wife! WHO DOES THAT? The second wife hears this confession while standing outside of the hospital room. She walks in the room and tells him she is there for him. The two of them WHILE STANDING on the side of the second wife's bed -- express their love and support for each other. SHOCKING!!! The first wife goes back to him and they have children. What woman would take back a man who left her in a hospital while in a coma to die AND no funeral?????? Who does that?! What was the writer thinking? I saw no humor in this movie -- zip. This movie is one of the worst I have seen -- I will never-ever watch this movie again. I cannot believe I DID.
