A Journal for Jordan

This movie was really enjoyable if you don't go into it with your mind made up about what it should be. Reading other reviews, I can understand their harsh sentiments but I don't think the movie deserves a 1 star rating by any means. The actors have great on-screen chemistry and I enjoyed seeing that play out throughout the film. I do agree that for the film to be named what it is, there wasn't a ton of focus on the journal and why Jordan might need certain lessons from the book (there is only one scene from what I can recall). For me it was reminiscent of those classic black love movies from the 90's and I have been missing that lately from cinema. This was certainly not the worst or best movie of the year but it is a nice escape from everything going on in the world right now. Definitely a movie for a GNO or maybe date night if your man doesn't mind you gawking over MBJ :)

The story of love was well written and the acting was superb. The characters depth was one I could relate to with everyday people. The title of movie could be a little different because I was expecting more of a connection to a journal, however the story was still great.

Very refreshing romantic story of love and family. To know that it is a true story pulls at the heart strings. Have a box of tissues close by. I am moved at the direction, production and acting. Great film!

A journal for Jordan , more like a journal of boredom. Such a great trailor but the film was a total let down, it could have been so much better and just went nowhere.. A big fat 4/10 save your money and don't bother.
