Bill Duke's "Home" is like an urban, African-American version of
"Brokeback Mountain" - only this time told from the perspective of
initially CLUELESS spouse instead of the two male lovers.
Aunjanue Ellis has a deeply religious woman whose life and marriage collapses
when she disCovers that her husband (Razaaq Adoti) is actually a more
homosexual conduct. This leads to a lot of emotional trauma for
both the wife and husband - and obviously absurd and totally unnecessary
that the assassination of sub-used to frame the story.

There is no doubt that this is a well-meaning and well-intentioned
movie, but its attempt to deal honestly with a serious social problem
all too often falls victim to slickery and overwrought melodramatics. Many
a scene that will roll their eyes in disbelief and unbelief,
while acknowledging that some of the points of the film is being done
indeed insightful and valid. And, commendably, the film gives a fair hearing
to each of its characters and truly torn in conflict.
But an air of amateurishness - both in the proceedings (including those
unconditional acting as Louis Gossett Jr. and "Amen" 's
Clifton Davis) and in the right direction - what keeps to have the impact that
clearly want.

Ultimately, a missed opportunity.
Church to go home wife is arrested and charged with murder. Things are complicated
its pure state as little life begins to unravel and when its clear
Assistant District Attorney prosecuting the case
not care if she is guilty because he is looking to win the election next. More
weak film directed by actor turned director Bill Duke. Feeling more like a
Tyler Perry then the wannabe thriller realistic and often acrimonious
Duke films is as a rule, this film seems more intended to be
about something other than the mystery within reach hand in hand. The film has a weak
script that has too many "dark secrets" that good cast can not really
become something really worth seeing. Just ... and loses
worse than you can see what happens whizzing by ...
