Charlize, baby, if you need me, just pick up the phone and I'm there for ya. And this time, I promise to wear pants.

This movie has a small chance of being quite good (and a large chance of being unbelievably bad). Can't find any details on the injury, anybody know anything? Bo Raxo Yes, she *is* African-American
