JUMPING THE BROOMThis family dramedy is one that many can relate to but few speak of. Coming from a 'have-not' side of town and marrying into the 'haves' presents a few challenges for both families.

When Jason introduces mama Taylor (Loretta Devine) to his wife-to-be, its days before the wedding and the drama begins.
Jumping the Broom is packed with explosive personalities independent of the wedding drama. With a surprisingly impressive performance, Mike Epps offers his well-expected comedic tone.

My Opinion
Scene Stealers: Tasha Smith and Romeo Miller offer an undeniable dysfunctional chemistry that is hilarious and unexpected.
Shocker: Mike Epps is proving the can be more than the funny man on camera. Its time he's offered the Will Smith and Denzel-esque type of roles. He's proven tried and true that he can hold his own and is bankable.
