Ah, I wanted to like this. It tries, but 'End of the Road' isn't something I'd wanna revisit in a great hurry.

Queen Latifah and Chris Bridges (aka Ludacris) are the film's only real positive, though I will say the change in directon of the story did fool me... so kudos for that. I actually think the twist makes the story weaker, but still. I found the pacing and dialogue to be off, it does attempt heart with the main characters but sadly it just doesn't come across as natural.

You could do worse, but this one fell unfortunately flat for me.
