I totally agree. I actually was digging her in that movie but she's been a disappointment since then, to me personally. The same poise and calm she had in Girls In The Hood is what she should have brought to this role. She should have maintained it until she gets insulted by Ini Edo at her man's house then loses her poise until Frank comes along and makes her realize that Richmond (Virginia) is a no good cad. Her character didn't take any journey at all...no rise, no fall...just monotone.
