Love Jones

Actors/Actresses:
- Nia Long
- Larenz Tate

the sweetest thing I know

I've seen/heard some mixed reviews on this black love story, but all in all people get it and they really feel it...it's nice to see african-americans represent "black love"...Nia Long and Larenz Tate did an excellent job and the accompanying soundtrack is off the chain as well...the movie is all good and like other reviewers have said it didn't get the marketing and publicity that it should have gotten...
this movie came out a while back when the "gansta/thug life" movies were coming out and people were flocking to the theaters to see our people get shot up, act up and just act plain ghetto, but that's a whole other story....
Love Jones definitely should be added to your video collection...the movie just keeps it real as far as the characters, the dialogue, and plot...a must have for anyone who loves romance

ONE OF MY FAV MOVIES

This is a good portrayal of black love. Everyone in the movie has a laid back, kicking it, kind of atmosphere. The movie stars Nia Long (Nina) ; Larenz Tate (Darius) as a potential love connection. Nina just got out of a bad relationship with a man that she had planned on marrying. She thought brothers were "played out like an 8 track." She was not interested in another man, only her work as a photographer. Along comes Darius whom she meets in a poetry relaxing, groovy type atmosphere club. Nina is not in the process of looking for a man, but like they say, you can't chose who you fall in love with. Nina enters Darius's world, she picks up his habits, and she falls for him physically and sexually as well as mentally. But no love story would be complete if there wasn't an added piece to this juicy tale. Both characters don't really want each one to know that they are falling for each other and feeling the wrath of a love jones, until it's to late for the relationship to be saved. Nina drifts away from what they have in order to make sure that Darius is really whom she wants, while Darius tries to play the "hard" role and act like he's not falling for Nina. Both are taking on an emotional roller coaster of love and forced to stop playing these childish games. But is it to late? THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PICTURES NIA LONG HAS PLAYED IN BESIDES THE BEST MAN. AND SISTA'S HAIR LOOKS FAB-U-LOUS!!

Acting with style.............

This movie had reminded me of watching the old black and white movies with my dad. More true to life characters looking for love, being in love, and loosing it. Old story fresh view. Larenz Tate was so Cary Grant in style as the character may have been in a clumsey situation, but the actor kept him from looking silly and like a cardboard cut out.BR>Nia Long has always been a favorite of mine she is sweet even whe she is tough, almost like a Kathrine Hepburn.BR>This is one of his best work and showing that he is better than always playing an angry black man.
Great movie an great performance bye all.....BUY THIS MOVIE!!!
