G

when I first started watching G, I thought it was going to be great - romance and intrigue in the Hamptons after a hip hop star moves into the neighborhood and tries to rekindle a 10 year old romance with the woman who left him in college and now lives next door with a philandering millionaire (Blair Underwood). unfortunately the movie deteriorated kind of quickly; it's hard to muster up empathy for a bunch of cheaters. Sonja Sohn, best known for Slam, stood out as someone real in the midst of all the shiny people. this is a "modern version" of The Great Gatsby - probably best to stick with the classic.
