Jumping The Broom
This story revolves around the class division that is a barrier to Sabrina's marriage. The story began with that girl, Sabrina Watson, a successful corporate lawyer. After a while, Sabrina meets a young man named Jason Taylor and thinks she has found her right man and accepts his proposal to marry him on Wall Street. But perhaps because the Sabrina family of the aristocratic class, it would seem more complicated. When the Sabrina family meets the aristocrats Angela Bassett, Brian with Jason's mother working in Martha Vineyard, there is a classy division that seems very broad.

...a perfectly watchable romantic comedy that benefits from the efforts of its eclectic cast and from the appreciatively (and increasingly) trashy turns in the narrative.

It shouldn't seem as novel as it does.

Pleasant and cheerful, and that sort of thing should be encouraged sometimes.

A pleasant sitcom-level mix of comedy, romance and soapy melodrama, plus low-key Bible-thumping (celebrity evangelist T.D. Jakes is a producer).

Like a Tyler Perry movie with polish

Class differences and family resentments add to the hubbub surrounding an African-American wedding on Martha's Vineyard in this perceptive, faith-based romantic comedy.

"Jumping the Broom" combines tried-and-true oil-water class tensions with the challenges of modern romance and family, then adds some African-American flavors.

Hits the intended mix of smiles, tears, and family-affirming warmth.

True, the script overreaches, crammed with too many characters, subplots and stereotypes. But at least it's trying. And at least there isn't a phony in the bunch.

This extremely formulaic time-waster offers little beyond its lame Hallmark greeting-card platitudes.

It's fun at times, if a bit over-dramatic and a lot over-the-top. But by the end, you're ready for it to be over.
