DVD Synopsis

When a weathered, God-fearing ex-blues musician finds the town nymphomaniac severely beaten and left for dead on the side of the road, he vows to cure her of her wicked ways in Hustle & Flow director Craig Brewer's raw and unflinching follow-up. Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) is a hard-living ex-blues guitarist for whom the troubled days are beginning to outnumber the good. Rae (Christina Ricci) is a 22-year-old sex addict whose wild ways are finally about to catch up with her. When Lazarus discovers Rae covered in dust and clinging to life on the side of the road, he takes her in and nurses her back to health; but Lazarus isn't your typical caregiver, he's more concerned for Rae's immortal soul than he is for her physical well-being. Now, after chaining Rae down and employing the power of the Good Book to curb the salacious seductress' hedonistic ways, Lazarus will be forced to confront his own darkest demons in order to save the soul of a woman whose one-way ticket to hell has already been paid in full. Now, as Lazarus wages a righteous struggle to redeem the soul of the fallen Rae while simultaneously ensuring that his own life hasn't been lived in vain, the situation threatens to explode as Rae's possessive boyfriend, Ronnie (Justin Timberlake) -- a roughneck Guardsman currently preparing for a tour of duty in Iraq -- comes searching for his missing lover. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

I am going to tell you why I liked this movie and think you should get a copy in your hands. Oppoin: Samuel L. Jackson is a great actor, this alone will bring some of you to want to watch this movie. Beyond that, there in is a good story. Mind you not a great story, but one that will keep you watching. Like Hustle and Flow this movie is not about the begining or the ending but about the life in the middle, a real look into a realy messed up life. Prehaps you want to see it, like a train wreck, you realy dont want to look. Yet, your finding yourself drawn to look, and keep on looking.

So this might not be put on my keeper self like 300 or any of my prized StargateSG-1 colection, but I can see myself in the future asking for this back from another member just to watch it again. ( and I am sure I will watch it again right before I send it out )

there are movies worth watching. this one is worth watching a few times.
