Editorial Review:
The path of true love never runs smoothly. Just ask Dave and
Clarice Johnson. After many years of marriage, their affection for each other is being severely tested by life. Following a car accident that temporarily sidelines Clarice, the couple must come to grips with physical temptations, financial pressures and emotional challenges that threaten their love for each other. Ultimately, they must determine whether or not their vows are easily broken in this soul-stirring film based on the inspirational best-selling novel by T.D. Jakes.
Description of Not Easily Broken:
What makes a promise--and a marriage? The deep success of the fearless yet ultimately positive film Not Easily Broken is that it doesn't attempt to answer that question--only ask it, bravely, from many different perspectives. Morris Chesnutt and Taraji P. Henson give deep, heartfelt performances as Dave and Clarice, a married couple with shards of friction working at their bonds. Their lives are instantly relatable, as they deal with waves of boredom, distraction, conflicting goals, and deep love they may sometimes take for granted. After Clarice is injured, her overbearing mom (Jenifer Lewis) moves in to help care for her, and a chain of tests and challenges begins to unfold. The career-focused Clarice has a mini-showdown with her well intentioned mother: "In all your lessons about how to be strong, you left out some very important things," Clarice cries to her mother (Jenifer Lewis), who snaps, "What?" "How to love, Mama!" The film, based on the novel by the best-selling author T.D. Jakes, embraces spirituality, but never preaches (a combination that would be welcome in more films about relationships and family), and the decisions of its characters are always believable--sometimes heartbreakingly so. Savor the real-world rewards, and the spiritual overtones, of a love fought for, in Not Easily Broken. --A.T. Hurley

Not Easily Broken 
2009-12-10 - T.D. Jakes previous novel Women Thou Art Loosed was a very impressive film, five years later and the film Not Easily Broken is just as good.
Believable! 
2009-11-28 - This is a realistic, heart-wrenching view of trials that can be faced and endured in a relationship. The actors are authentic, and do an outstanding job in this movie. It's good to see Morris Chestnut again, as well as Taraji P. Henson and Jenifer Lewis (and as much as I like her, I almost stopped because of how well she portrayed her character as Taraji's mother). Great movie!
