Fighting Temptations, The

A good-natured movie that deserves a better title, a better script, a better effort from everyone behind the camera. Basically a gospel-themed remake of
The Music Man, with Cuba Gooding, Jr. in the Harold Hill part, The Fighting Temptations has a few fun musical numbers but mostly goes through the motions. Audiences deserve better too.
