I was introduced to Zane when I was in high school. Her books changed my life. Okay my sexual life. Addicted was the first book I read by Zane.
I loved it so I read the rest of them in the span of a year. I didn't have the biggest allowance so I went to the Parish Library and checked them out one by one. Until I was caught up.
A couple years later I took a break from reading because I was living the books content. One of her novels became a TV series on Cinamax. I think I caught a couple episodes but not the entire season.
One evening I was in the movie theater. Sharon Leal popped across my screen as well as Boris Kodjoe . At the end of the preview did I realize that Addicted had been brought to life before my very eyes. I was beyond excited. I went to see it the week it came out with my friend Mindy. I didn't brush up on the book to compare how accurate the book and the movie were before watching. Keep in mind I read this book 10 years ago.
Read about the book here and if you are wanting to compare and contrast the book read the review from Carmen. She broken down the book and the movie in an amazing way. Don't read the spoilers unless you are wanting to be spoiled.
Due to lack of back story, lack of sex , and lack of all of the sex partners I give this movie a 3/5
But I do understand that when you have a book like this you cant have a 3 hour movie to fit everyone and everything in it. But due to the amazing cast in the movie I have to give it a higher rating. For Zane's first movie it was good. I am looking forward to seeing more. Sex Chronicles? Shame on it all? Hot box?
