This movie has its moments, especially for those who enjoy some blues or jazz. A talented cast acts in this production, including Danny Glover, Charles S. Dutton, Stacy Keach, and Mary Steenburgen. However, it is in the content arena that the picture fails as being a family-friendly film. There are close to thirty words of strong language in the movie, and that is a lot. In addition, the protagonist of the film, Tyrone “Pine Top” Purvis (Danny Glover), plans to trick the public with a scheme in which he runs off with the cash at a one-night-only gig featuring the popular Guitar Sam. Tyrone manipulates several situations and even steals cash from his wife’s savings, which is supposed to be for their daughter’s education. He is about to lose his club and is desperate. If a few of these issues, and the language, had been toned down, we could have awarded our Dove Seal to the movie. Unfortunately, this picture falls short in meeting Dove’s guidelines and therefore prevents us from doing so.
