November Rule is a romantic comedy movie that was released in 2015. It stars Mo McRae, Tatyana Ali, and DJ Qualls playing the main characters' roles. The story revolves around Steve (Mo McRae), a young entrepreneur who has a rule that he breaks up with his girlfriends by Thanksgiving to avoid heartbreaks. He devised this rule after being dumped by his high school sweetheart just before Thanksgiving, which was a significant disappointment for him.

As the movie begins, Steve, who owns a successful marketing firm, wants his girlfriend Kristin to sign a prenuptial agreement, which she is not pleased about. Kristin is also an entrepreneur and has her business, but she is not as successful as Steve. The tension between the two is evident throughout the movie. Kristin's dissatisfaction with the prenup causes their relationship to break down, and Steve is forced to enact his November Rule.

After the breakup, Steve attends his little sister's engagement ceremony, where he meets Maya (Tatyana Ali), who is the event catering manager. Maya is an attractive and intelligent woman who catches Steve's attention, and they start talking. Maya is also an entrepreneur and runs her catering business. She is someone who Steve could relate to because of their similar positions in life, and they soon hit it off.

Steve becomes interested in Maya, but he's conflicted about his November Rule. He doesn't want to break his rule, but he's also afraid of losing something special with Maya. Maya, on the other hand, is single and open to start something new. However, when Steve confides his November Rule with his friends, they encourage him not to share with Maya. But Maya soon finds out, and she becomes hurt by Steve's perceived dishonesty, which puts their newfound relationship at risk.

November Rule is a finely crafted romantic comedy that avoids some cliches of the genre. The characters are well-developed, and each one has unique personality traits. The casting is on point, and every actor does an excellent job. Mo McRae delivers a convincing performance as Steve, a successful and ambitious young man who has built walls around his heart as he tries to protect himself from past wounds. Tatyana Ali is superb as Maya, Steve's love interest. She is charming, smart, and a successful businesswoman. Their on-screen chemistry is palpable, and they make a likeable pair.

Aside from the romantic element, the movie also explores themes such as friendship, family, and business. Steve's relationship with his family, particularly his little sister, plays a significant role in the movie. His friends are also an essential part of his life and provide him with support and advice on both his personal and professional life. Steve's business and work ethic are admirable, but his ambition also causes him to be ruthless in his approach to business.
