Three Can Play That Game Trailers

Shanté Smith has moved to Atlanta where she's the Love Doctor, a relationship expert who uses her knowledge of the male psyche to help women get what they want. Tiffany contacts her after she catches her boyfriend, Byron, in a clinch with his boss, Carla, right after he wins a competition called "The Trainee." Shanté initiates a five-step program for Tiffany while Byron seeks advice from his best friend, Gizzard. Then, Bryon consults Shanté: has the Love Doctor switched sides? And, what happens if Byron finds out that Tiffany's playing games? Can true love run without a play book?

I love it! I love it! I love it!!!I happened to watch this movie a couple years ago, right after a huuuge fight with my bf (we're getting married soon, yeeeeey!). And this movie was really helpful. After an hour of desperate crying, it made me laugh! It's fun, with original jokes (no stupid toilet humor), it also has a moment of wisdom, and some actual relationship advises!!! Another great aspect of the movie is Jayson Jorge, who is gorgeous, i really enjoyed his baritone, HOT HOT HOT. I can't agree with such a low credit for the movie. Seriously??? People tend to give 7 and 8 to "big" movies, and 3 - 4 to comedies, which is wrong!!! It's a great comedy, it deserves to be evaluated adequately. My baby hates the movie, (i guess that's for the part where one of the characters says "A man is a dog, ... and a dog can be trained" - but we don't need to take that seriously!!!!)It's one of my favorite movies)))

Carla must be a wrestling fan. I say that due to the fact that at the restaurant, when Byron said that Tiffany helped to get him into the game, she said that she WAS the game. Sounds very familiar to me. Anyone that watches WWE programming knows what I mean. But seriously, movies like this never cease to amaze me. Is it me, or do they all seem to have the same plot? Why are the roles always so damn stereotypical? Ford and Fox's roles were the most stereotypical. And what is it with these movies about relationships that always make the men out to look like lying, scheming jerks. Most, if not all movies in this genre are so one-sided. And what was with that lame attempt at a James Bond impression by Fox?

2 can play that game was a good movie with a wonderful cast & and a beautiful, touching ending. it felt so good to see a gorgeous black couple come together so sweetly after going through so many changes (i almost cried...corny, i know). but of course, we can't have a movie with a black couple madly in love ending up together for good on the loose can we? now whenever i watch 2 can play i have to try & dispel the reality of how shante & keith's relationship actually ends up. i heard vivica fought hard so that keith would come across as a strong and sensitive male role model. why did you give up the fight vivica. you could have doled out advice in this tacky 3 can play sequel with keith by your side. way to ruin a happy ending!!

"Three Can Play That Game" picks up with Shante Smith (Vivica Fox) in Atlanta where she is now a couples therapist. Unlike the first film where Vivica was talking to the audience trying to solve her own relationship problems (and a few friends), in this installment Vivica is counseling Byron Thompson (Jason Winston George) and Tiffany (Jazsmin Lewis). It's the same formula, but by making Vivica a celebrity therapist, the filmmakers actually gave her a reason to monologue. And Vivica is great when she's addressing the audience.Shante is the role Vivica was meant to play. I've never seen her as good as she is in this part. Every little inflection is dead on (remember this line: "trick ass bitch!"), and I guarantee that if you got a kick out of her asides in the first one, you definitely will in this one.But the real treat here is Jazsmin Lewis, who has been steadily growing as actress and is getting better with each film. She was good in "Tracie Townsend," but she's even better in this. She's beautiful and a great actress and I look forward to seeing her in even bigger projects. Tony Rock is also good in this as the best friend coaching Byron's character, as is Terri Vaughn.Finally... Melyssa Ford as Candy. I had been looking to see her in this movie. To be honest, even though she's eye candy extraordinaire, I've never been that impressed with screen presence. But she did a nice job here. She looks incredible--distractingly so--but her acting chops are respectable.This movie lacks the brisk pacing of the first one, but it's thoroughly enjoyable. I found myself re-watching several scenes for kicks.A nice sequel. Should have been in theaters.P.S. Mark Brown is a true talent. Hope to keep seeing his movies.
