This sophomore effort by Matty Rich seems surprisingly run-of-the-mill, considering his first film was the low-budget success story Straight Out of Brooklyn.
Set in Martha's Vineyard during the summer of '76, this feels very much like an updated, African American version ofSummer of '42. Larenz Tate is the shy teen from New York who, along with his politically radical parents, vacations with wealthy Republican relatives. When not confiding in his wooden doll, he learns a little about life and even more about sex. Inkwell, by the way, is the name of the beach where the African American population of Martha's Vineyard owns homes.
Clumsily written and executed, this is sweet enough on the surface, but too slick to feel genuine. Also released as No Ordinary Summer.--Rochelle O'Gorman
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Matty Rich's follow up to the classic Straight Out Of Brookyln
Matty Rich is proabbly one of the most talented directors you've never heard of. This film about a black teen's summer in Martha's vineyard. Larnez Tate who plays Drew plays this role perfectly as a teen who experiences love,heartbreak and emotion all in one summer. Rich once again proves his talent with this heartfelt film.
Rating:  - Heartwarming story of a boy who becomes a man
The Inkwell is one of the best films I've ever watched. There's no reason why it should have poor reviews because it is a great film. It is about a young boy who spends summer on an island with his family after a fire accident that he unintentionally caused. He falls in love with a girl who just got dumped by her boyfriend and she uses him to get even. While this is unfortunate for him, he meets a beautiful, young, married lady whose husband cheats on her and, thanks to the young boy, realizes that ... Read More
Rating:  - Good Movie Sidelined by Stupidity
What could have been a wonderful coming-of-age film dealing with many issues (relationships, conflicts, growing boys, disappointment, psychology, etc.) was absolutely sidelined by the unsuccessful attempts at over-the-top humor. Never have I seen adolescent boys behave the way the group were portrayed. It was simply another Fat Albert-style farcical attempt to make the boys and feuding brothers-in-law appear utterly ridiculous. The director/producers didn't know whether to make an outrageous comedy ... Read More
Rating: - afro- american must have
this movie should be a part of every afro-american dvd collection, and should be watched at least yearly as a motivator.
Rating: - Good Movie
This is a good movie. I never even heard of Matty Rich, and was unaware of the movie altogether until stumbled across it this year. I was thoroughly impressed with the performances of Larenz Tate and Jada Pinkett Smith.
As an aspiring writer myself, I look forward to hearing a lot more from Mr. Rich in the nearing future. I thought the film was well developed, with a believable plot, and excellent development of character. I also enjoyed the fact that the character in which Mr. Tate was sheltered ... Read More
