I'd heard great things of this movie but only just finished watching it. I thought it was really amazing. Angela Bassett looks amazing for her ages (I have no idea how close to 40 she actually is in this but she looks lovely anyway).
She stars as a 40 year old woman who has lost all interest in romance and love, and it's only on a whim that she grabs best friend Whoopi Goldberg and takes her off to Jamaica for a break. Both women have totally different ideas of what they want from the holiday, but before long Stella has met a gorgeous young man named Winston who seems utterly besotted by her despite being 20 years younger than her.
This is a pleasing film, although I know some people see the idea of an older woman and a younger man almost bordering on illegal, but to me age shouldn't matter as long as you are compatible. No one ever slags off a Hugh Hefner wannabe snagging a young girl.
Anyway, a great film, a happy film, an upbeat film, showing you that love usually comes along when you least expect it. Plus some great songs.
