Trapped in a Closet

Romance/Hip Hop Opera Review:

R. Kelly's Trapped in a Closet: Chapters 1-22 is one of the most hilariously perfect melodramatic pieces of performance ever. I'm just going to assume that this was intentional. If you haven't seen it, you are lame and should probably just go ahead and see it. Allow me to outline the opening sequences:

Sylvester - married to Veronica, being with his wifes's best friend, is trapped in a closet when his wife's best friend's husband arrives home. He is a preacher.

The preacher man walks in and eventually discovers Sylvester, everyone goes crazy, Sylvester pulls out his gun, nervous tension, they all decide no one is going to get shot, the preacher calls his boyfriend - because he's not the only one who's going to get his heart broken today. The boyfriend enters, things get crazier. Sylvester decides to call his wife. A dude answers the phone. Sylvester loses it and jumps in his car. He's speeding home and gets pulled over.

He gets home. His wife is in the shower. He's suspicious, but he decides to be with her. They are together. They do it for awhile, things are getting good but wait what is this? It's something on Sylvester's bed. Where did it come from? He goes crazy again.

They're yelling. The cop who gave Sylvester the speeding ticket runs in. It gets real again. See Sylvester's wife followed him to the club, saw him leave with some girl(her best friend was wearing a wig, so she did not recognize her), she got angry and decided to take the cop (who just happened to be there) home. Everyone is yelling, guns are pulled, the wife's brother (Twan) walks in and gets shot. Everyone freaks, but wait - Twan is fine, he's tough and it was just a flesh wound. Twan just got out of prison and he doesn't want to call the cops.

Things get progressively worse and better from here.
