I was raised in New Orleans , I met Prince in hollygrove . I was a pre teenager , he'd say when you look at a mirror and others look at you, you think of me.. I was offered to be in Michael Jacksons music videos as a teenager, the governments decided no. I developed to appear as Vanity as a young woman, my boss and supervisors were reminders of healthy hard working women . I admired my mother's strength as a black woman .. And I depend on their result for peace, meaning middle age and older beings. Later , being documented legally normal . Insurance is not as it should be: Disappointment in demand and erasures. I worked for him and the government for a few years. I see the Chase, I'm in the presence of their ghosts non- specifics.. Anybody who knows , already are or has graduated from "their"dependency with no confusion, I'm almost there; Peoples need for God in man form delays at times.., I think his friends would be proud.. I can't get the movie to work, I know so much truth it hurts.. Phone rings.. It's an image and destiny. Stay human

The older I get, the more I realize just how god awful this movie is and has always been. The music is great, of course but, just about everyone's acting is so bad, it's laughable. LOL I give it 1 star for the music.

This has to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The only reason people praise it is because it is Prince. He like most musical artists needs to stick to MUSIC and skip MOVIES. Even the music sucks.
