The tone of this movie reminds me of America's Sweethearts with its screwball- like elements, which wasn't something I expected, especially the opening 15 mins. But as events unfold, they suddenly see that Ray is attracted to Eva and soon, the pair fall for one another. A scheme so vindictive that they want him to dump her as well. When 3 friends Tim, Darrell and Michael feel that Eva is too much of an interference in their lives with her unneeded advice, they rope in Ray Adams & pay him $5k just to get her off their backs. LL Cool J, who is now credited by his real name James Todd Smith, is Ray: the man hired to seduce Eva and tries to win over her love. She has been a mother to her siblings, ever since their mother died. She is attractive, headstrong but uptight also who will not let her 3 sisters settle for second best. Gabrielle Union is Eva: a young woman and a health inspector who finds herself the centre of her 3 sister's lives. Going into the film, I wasn't expecting much but I also expected it to offer something that made me like it a tad more than 90% of the populist and mainstream rom-coms. Critically panned when it was originally released and irrespective of the comments branding Deliver Us From Eva as being a lame rom-com, in actuality, it turns out this is anything but that.īut rather I was genuinely surprised, as well as I enjoyed it to an extent.

#Deliver us from eva cast member update
Well, it could be to do with that this is an update or be it modern telling on The Taming of the Shrew, which was famously penned by William Shakespeare. One wonders what exactly attracted Levinson, a director who I admire, to a project such as this and lend his name to. Which this is mentioned during the opening credits of the movie. 'Not Great, But A Rom-Com That Delivers In Parts'Ī Black African-American romantic comedy which states on the poster is from the writer/director of The Brothers, and yet what that poster doesn't mention is that Deliver Us From Eva was surprisingly executively produced by Barry Levinson - yes, the same Barry Levinson who directed Robin Williams's 1987 military dramedy, Good Morning, Vietnam and 1988's Oscar-winning Rain Man & his production company, Baltimore/Spring Creek Production.
