This has been one of the worst movies

This has been one of the worst movies I have seen. The acting was horrible, and the storyline was not well thought out. I recommond that all aspiring filmmakers see this movie and use it as a guide of what not to do. So many scenes didn't make any sense and should have been left on the editing floor. The cinematographer should have white balanced the camera before he shot this. I know this was in the 80's but the scene where these two black men were just running and skipping for no reason made me cringe. I don't know how it made it to HBO Max but here it is. Don't waist your time.

In "My Brother's Wedding," Pierce(Everett Silas), when he is not working for his parents'(Jessie Holms and Dennis Kemper) dry cleaning business, takes the time to look in on his grandparents. In the meantime, he is getting reading for his brother Wendell's(Monte Easter) wedding. And then Pierce's friend Solider(Ronnie Bell) gets released from prison. "My Brother's Wedding" depicts a working class African American milieu that is still rarely seen in movies today. Ironically enough, in this world, there is upward mobility and downward mobility(Soldier has a certain outlaw charm and charisma about him) but moving sideways or not at all like Pierce seems expert at is definitely frowned upon. But as insightful as that is, the movie suffers from a fractured narrative that can be frustrating at times.(This review and rating refer to the 2007 director's cut.) Even the ending that desperately tries to bring everything together, can also feel more than a little forced.

Of course, as a messy and unrefined exploration

Of course, as a messy and unrefined exploration of the material social bonds that transcend the ideological family unit, it could just as aptly be titled MY BROTHER'S FUNERAL.
