I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Disappearing Acts for me was the best movie i have ever seen and trust me it is. My problem with love movies most of the time is the fact that they are often and most times too fictional, but Disappearing Acts was far from that.This movie delivers in all aspect of the word. Its about a young women Zora who movies into an apartment where she meets Franklin a man who was working on her floor lol. At first i thought that these two as a couple would not work out but as the movie progress you get that sense of connection between them remember opposites do attract, and its this difference between them that makes them coming together more special and romantic. I don't want to give too much away but let me say this! i truly love it when a movie provides wonderful sex scenes and trust me Disappearing Acts gives you just that.The love scene especially the last on was amazing i could not stop my body from trembling it was that good and so real. I've got to give props to Sanaa and Wesley for their wonderful performance and for being so real, they made these scene so real and i loved that. all in all this movie comes together perfectly, expect a few laughter, tears and a lot of love a movie worth seeing.

This is a movie bout the very worst side of relationships, made even worse by the characters 'black power' attitudes, suggesting this is the way all relationships between African-American couples work. I could never understand why the smart, sassy Zora would even be attracted to a selfish, insolent child-man like Franklin. It almost seems like the filmmakers are trying to make a comment, and the comment is that young, black women are so desperate to have a boyfriend that they'll put up with just about anything, just so long as they're tossed the oft-abused and misused words "I Love You". On top of all this is the casting of beautiful, charming Sanaa Lathan as Zora and, well, let's just say the aesthetically-lacking Wesley Snipes. Their mismatched casting just makes Zora's decision seem even more desperate. Skip this one.

At last, Wesley snipes starts to fulfil the promise he showed us in The
Waterdance. It seems like he stopped acting for a while to become an action
star, and here he proudly reclaims his ground as one of the finest actors on
screen today. Sanaa Lathan is great as well, in a lovely small story of a
relationship. That's all it is, and yet it holds and moves. The supporting
actors are all great too- I particularly liked Regina Hall. The music is
terrific- did she sing it herself? and the direction and script are all
top-notch. Well done!

Very well written, cleanly told, the story of relationships in the year 2000 reveals that things really have not changed radically, but instead have only evolved slightly. Centering on a relationship that is nominally black, it could have been refitted as any ethnic group without changing it in any vital way. Snipes proves he is a great actor, Sanaa Lathan shows that she has tuned and toned her skills during the last five years and is ready to join the ranks of the "name" actors, and the supporting cast behaves almost flawlessly.
