Nightclub manager Darnell Wright is a perpetual playboy who is almost as devoted to his job as he is to the pursuit of beautiful women. After he sets his sights on the ultra-classy Brandi Web, he launches an all-out assault to win her heart. Ultimately, charm, lust and passion prevail, but Darnell learns the hard way that when you play, you pay. Brandi is much harder to get rid of than she was to get--especially when she realizes that she has a rival vying for Darnell's affection. When he finally decides to call it quits, Brandi becomes an obsessed femme fatale stalking the new love of her life.

I personally loved this ;-)
I often go back to watching this movie every now and then because I really do like it. It's not Oscar material for sure, but it's good and enjoyable and almost anything that Martin Lawrence is in, is great. He's funny and yet in this, you can see he's got a more serious side too. I do agree with some other reviewers that it is a semi cross between Fatal Attraction and Boomerang. There are moments of comedy and moments of insanity with the female lead. Darnell meets Brandi outside his club, Chocolate City, and she looks like she has it all. Limo driver, fine crib in Malibu, good paying job, but that's only the surface.He can't say he wasn't warned. His mother (Della Reese) said near the start that there is a fine line between love and hate, and also Brandi (Lynn Whitfield) told Darnell that it wouldn't be a good thing if she were hurt and she also told him in bed for their first time, that she'd killed her husband because he'd been abusive. He should have heard warning bells then, but didn't.I love watching this; it's funny in parts and also fun watching Brandi go off the deep end. I love the music throughout the movie and if you are a fan of Black cinema, then check it out. It's an old favourite of mine and really enjoy it.

My All-time Fave Movie W/Lynn & Martin!!!
I give it 5 stars bc this is my all-time FAVORITE movie with Martin & Lynn in it. My two favorite scenes of the movie is when Lynn was in her Lexus and Dellareese came outside and said "Lemme me handle this heffa" (i literally LMMFAO) and Lynn said, "Oh, hi, ma," then pulled off and yelled out, "watch out for yah son! livin' in this ghetto!" and the ending scene is my fave- when Lynn started counting to 3, Martin burst from the closet, rushed towards both Regina King and Lynn and they all went through that glass window of the second floor of Lynn's extravagant Malibu home and into the swimming pool; talk about a person kept rewinding that scene over and over and over and over and ov....LOL!...I truly and honestly did.

A Thin Line Between Love and Hate...Good Movie!
I do like this movie always have and when I found it at such a cheap price couldn't help but to add it to my collection. It definately takes a look at how differently men and women can look at relationships. "Fatal Attraction" really digs deep into this issue. Fatal Attraction [VHS]Martin Lawrence as usual is funny but he does have his serious moments. Just goes to show that there is "A Thin Line Between Love and Hate".

Another old time favorite movie at a very reasonable price
Another old time favorite movie at a very reasonable price. This was Martin Lawrence at his best and it is a good movie even after all of these years. This was the perfect balance of drama and comedy. Again for the price you can't go wrong with this movie.
