Verdict on Think Like a Man

Think Like a Man is a romantic comedy following a group of men trying to win the hearts of women. However, they find themselves trying to stay ahead of their women after they learn about a book the women are using against them.

This does create stereotypical characters, but it works because of the book they are working with. It is meant to put people in brackets and show them how important their lives are. The cast bring the laughs throughout the film and the deeper meaning that people don’t fall into brackets comes out. However, it does feel like we have one too many characters to give everyone a chance to shine. It proves that people will always be different to what it looks and being honest is the most important thing.
