Tony Toscano reviews “Just Wright”

Just Wright is one of those chick flicks that give chick flicks a bad name. Thinly written and avoiding even the smallest slice of reality, Just Wright hammers home the notion “Love will conquer all.”

Unfortunately 2/3rds of the film is devoted to a woman pursuing an NBA star using nothing but deceit, lies and her physical beauty to lure in and snag the player of her dreams.

Queen Latifah, who plays the “every girl” in the film, shows interest in the Basketball star (played by Common) but simply throws up her hands and acquiesces to her younger and beautiful friend.

When the NBA player has an injury and when it seems his days of playing are over, the younger and prettier woman abandons him and leaves him in the care of Queen Latifah’s character. It’s is then “love conquers all.”

Just Wright simply isn’t good fantasy nor is it moralistic as none of the characters seem to pay any price for their actions.

Just Wright gets a D and is rated PG.
