I really wanna see it because of Anika Noni Rose. I hope it's good.

I loved these books, DVRing the movie. I guess I didn't really picture Mma Ramotswe looking so young. And I always pictured Don Cheadle as J.L.B. Matekoni.

I do like the books (or remember liking them; I haven't read any in about 4 years), but given the movie's pedigree, it just...wasn't that great. Anika Noni Rose was really funny and good, though.

Do they only take cases for ladies?

I don't think so - but they do tend to get most of their cases from women, if I remember correctly.

I actually really liked it. I've never read any of the books but found myself flipping channels as it was starting and I just loved their accents so decided to keep watching. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Loved Grace (Anika Noni Rose)!

Intriguing idea, until I saw that the vile Anthony Minghella directed it. Life's too short to waste on his sh*t flicks.
