"Precious" is a inspirational film to see. It has a teenage mother, Precious, played by Gabourey Sidibe, trying to take care of her mentally challenged son, while also pregnant. Precious is a very nice girl, trying to get by with her terrible lifestyle. Her mother, played by Mo'Nique, abuses Precious and her children. Also Precious' step-dad rapes Precious and she is now pregnant with his second child. She has try to overcome her hardships.
This film is so great because of the duo of Mo'Nique and Gabourey Sidibe. They were just perfect together on screen. The film just worked when it was put to screen. Some great minor characters were great also. Mariah Carey was fantastic in this film. She is not known for acting because of her incredible voice, but she has been in a few films but this was her culmination. Paula Patton was great to see and she did fantastic in this film to not give up on Precious. This film was based on a book and I do not know how accurate it was but I think it is a great film about never giving up.
