There's a lot to enjoy here, but ultimately one serious error prevents me from giving a rating of "7".

Although he's not a particularly great actor, it's hard not to enjoy LL Cool J, who here plays 'Ray', a blue collar worker who thinks of himself as a playa, but then actually falls in love.

I have long thought that not only is Gabrielle Union a really good actress, but also one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. Her acting is fine, although there are issues with character continuity...but that's the fault of the writers and director.

Duane Martin is very good as the boyfriend of one of Union's sisters. I enjoyed him here; not sure why he has not been more successful.

The ladies who play the sisters of Union did not particularly impress me, although they did their jobs. Essence Atkins, Robinne Lee, and Meagan Good. Mel Jackson is good as one of the husbands, while Dartanyan Edmonds had a rather short career which pretty much ended after this film...and rightfully so. Royale Watkins is interesting as a gay hair dresser.

The problems here come with the script. Overall, its' a good premise -- Union is the pitchy oldest sister who is somewhat controlling of her sisters' lives...and of their husbands and boyfriends. And so, the husbands/boyfriend plot to get Union out of their hair by hiring the suave LL to romance her off her feet and out of their lives. Okay, that's good. One problem is that pitchy people don't suddenly become nice just because they're in love. So there's a continuity problem with Union's character. But the big letdown for me was the scene where the husbands/bf kidnap LL and stage a fake funeral. Before that the film had a problem deciding whether or not it was really a comedy, but then this just got ridiculous.

So while I liked the film, I also thought it had some major problems.

Sexist film and without the slightest grace, the few fun scenes are not fun (?!?!?!?!).... I liked the meeting of the girls and boys in the beauty salon, the texts are the most fun and interesting... Well regular...

Deliver Us from Eva isn't a perfect film and it's not supposed. The film is a urban romantic comedy and the film does have a lot of heart. LL Cool J and Gaberille Union have very good chemisty togetehr and carry the film. Essence Attkins, Megan Good and Robinee Lee all dyme pieces also do acting jobs and the men in their lives played by Mel Jackson and Duane Martin make the film enjoyable also. If you just want a fresh fun movie then check this out.
