Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Matthias Well, the drama category is not really my cup of tea but i got stuck when this came on the other night and am now glad that i got stuck.It's actually not A love story but more like love stories. We have the lesbian couple, the lesbian book store owner who is loved in secret by the transvestite, the main characters brother who meets a bi-sexual girl and more....It deals with many of the issues people have with sexual multitude, even amongst the lines of people who are not straight. We get to see how these people experience both joy and anger, frustration and satisfaction.This is a real little gem and everybody should see it. It has a very playful atmosphere and even the sex scenes has that same playfulness to them. It doesn't feel forced or dirty but more like you go with the flow and follow a natural beautiful progress of the relationships. I especially like Karyn Dwyer's effort, natural talent at it's best. It works on many levels and is really clever and well made.Why not give it a try?

ladymidath Better than chocolate was a sweet, funny and tender film that explores the lives and loves of a disparate group of people. Maggie and Kim, Francis and Judy *who was once Jeremy* and in the middle of it all is Lila, Maggie's rather naive mother who with her teenage son, moves in with Maggie. The scenes between the neurotic Francis and Judy are wonderful and the scene where Francis confronts a customs officer that is holding up her books is priceless. But most importantly, it shows that love comes in all shapes and forms.You don't have to be a lesbian to love this movie. Just grab a big bowl of popcorn, sit back and enjoy.

questor2-1 Of the more than one thousand productions I have seen during my lifetime, this is definitely among the top three.It is strong in almost every respect, from its cinematography to its background music.To me, its highest appeal is its unqualified universality of emotion. How many of us have not had a parent step in at some supremely inopportune moment and ruin something valuable in our lives? How many of us have not been hated by someone who sees the world differently? How many of us have not instantly fallen in love? It is almost irrelevant that the production is set in the gay section of Vancouver or that the main characters focus on same sex love. It is emotions common to everyone that give the production its extreme appeal. I was cheering the girls, and would have been very hurt if they had not gotten back together again.I might add that this is the only DVD I have seen in which I enjoyed the director's comments as much as the production itself.Both of the young actresses displayed an amazing variety of facial expressions. The shot focusing on Cox's deep blue eyes while Karyn is unable to confront her mother with the truth is priceless, as is Cox's gesture half hiding her face and half saying "so what" as she flees the applauding crowd after the bathroom scene.The film's only weakness, in my opinion, is that everybody found someone in the end, at least at the very same instant. Life is simply not that generous.In summary, few viewers will be leave this experience feeling worse than when they began.

gwensmyheronxd I love this so much, I watch it Every night when I go to bed. I'm in love with Christina Cox. she is amazing and the most beautiful woman in the whole world well her and Gwen Stefani. I'm always looking on her site to see if she's guest staring on anything. It's quite pathetic actually. It would be awesome if they did a sequel to Better Than Chocolate. That would be amazing....amazing. I don't know what they would write it about, however they are geniuses so they could do it. but yeah. I love this movie so freaking much. I suggest that everyone watch it at least 1 million times. It is amazing. Amazing. What I really liked about it is that they used such a great cast and the storyline wasn't just a regular romance. It was different from everything. I think it's because it was made by Canadians and Canadians are amazing. This movie really went out there. It showed the real troubles that we go through as glbt's.
