After revisiting all of J-Lo's albums, this is one of her most inconsistent projects. While there are hits like 'Love Don't Cost a Thing' and 'Ain't It Funny', it's front loaded and just has more lukewarm songs. As an aside, released in the same year, there are some songs that have some elements that remind me of MJ's 'Invincible'. Best Tracks: Love Don't Cost a Thing, I'm Real, Play, Ain't It Funny

I think one of the problems with this album, unlike her others, is that the sound isn't varied enough. Too many songs have the same kind of vibe and I'm saying this after giving the album about 6 spins. It's all decent-good though. 'Mile in These Shoes' is an underrated one. I had its chorus stuck in my head. The upbeat-dance-pop like 'Hold It Don't Drop It', 'Do it Well' and 'Gotta Be There' all work fairly well. The title track is another highlight. There is nothing I'll be craving to hear from this in the future, but it's another decent collection from Jennifer. Best Tracks: Hold It Don't Drop It. Do It Well, Mile in These Shoes, Brave, Do It Well (Feat. Ludacris)

I enjoyed the dark, depressing tone this has but it is ruined by one completely out of place scene. After being violently raped by the antagonist, and others in the crew trying it on with her, there is a 'comedic' scene where Bergman's character is teased with peaches not long afterwards and then laughs along at the end with backing Benny Hill music. What the... 2.5-3

I have never felt so embarrassed for other people than I did for some of the actors whilst watching this. How on Earth do movie like this receive the green light? And almost as bewilderingly, how does this have an overall rating of over 2.5 here? The Virgin Hunter sketch is maddeningly annoying and then, unbelievably, they decided to do a second part of it. The porn review bit is absolutely horrendous. Some of the Bat-man stuff was okay, but again, they beat it to death. No pun intended. The same can be said for The Godfather parody, 'Godmother', that drags on and on. And then there is the repetitive sketch about a white guy going after a virgin black guy and not taking no for an answer. I could go on. The director, Vince Offer, used many of these ideas to make the only slightly better, 'InAPPropriate Comedy', 14 years later.

I think Jennifer's singing improved from here. It's noticeable on the opener, 'If You Had My Love', that would be better if she sung it later into her career or a better singer had it. 'Waiting for Tonight' is the highlight with other lesser known tracks like 'Could This Be Love' and the very '90s R&B influenced 'Talk About Us' being underrated. I don't care for the Spanish songs. Best Tracks: If You Had My Love, Let's Get Loud, Could This Be Love, Waiting for Tonight, Talk About Us
