This film can make you a terrorist.
In the movie Timothy Walker played by Terrence Howard threatens the Mariah Carey character played by Mariah Carey.
Now oddly enough

In February 2009 it was reported on the The Smoking Gun that Howard was arrested in 2001 for a variety of charges related to a violent attack on his estranged wife, including simple assault, terrorist threats, harassment and stalking. According to police reports, he arrived at her house after an argument on the phone, forced entry into her home by breaking in doors, and chased her into the back yard where he punched her twice in the face with a closed fist. The violent attack ended when Howard's brother stopped it. In 2002 he pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace.
These issues came to light after he reportedly downplayed singer Chris Brown's 2009 arrest for attacking his girlfriend Rihanna. When Howard was asked about the allegations of domestic violence against Brown, he told a reporter from Hollywood.tv "It's just life, man. Chris is a great guy. He'll be all right, and Rihanna knows he loves her, you know? They'll be all right."
I.e. he did pretty much the same thing, only worse, in real life as he did in the film. 2001 is when the film was released, filming must have been a couple of years earlier. Hence he must have got the idea for "terrorist thtreas, harassment and stalking" from the film.
Incidentally if they'd cast against type and had Terrence Howard playing the Mariah Carey character in drag, then this film would have been as exuberantly awful as I had been lead to believe. The main problem is it's too good to be "so bad it's good" but too bad to be actually enjoyable when taken on its own terms. share
