Summary: 5 Stars
I believe love jones' main commodity is it's lack of emphasis on stereotypical black roles. Instead, the characterization wholly reflected traditional American issues like love and aspirations: acheiving the American dream. For example, Tate, Darius, played a writer in contrast to his former roles as both murderer and criminal in the films dead presidents and menace to society. I found his character refreshing and inriguing. Also, this film was creative in the sense that it didn't hoist its characters on unusually high planes of occupation, as is the trend in black films contemporarily; Love Jones offered a realistic setting with truly realistic characters, not just an attempt to abandon or draw sympathy to a certain cultural scope. Darius (Lorenz Tate) was a struggling writer of obvious talent as showcased at the beginning of the film with his poem "a blues for Nina" to Nina. Nina, too, was an artist trying to make it. The friends of these two were on the average scale in society but yet had distinct character roles making them interesting along with the plot.I mostly enjoyed the film because one: darius and nina were a lot of fun, Two: it offered an all black cast without all the mundane black stereotypes and finally because darius is an aspiring writer and so am I.Movie Review: What is O-Dog doin in a loved up movie?

Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I HAVE BEEN DYING TO GET IT ON DVD FOR SO LONG NOW. I FINALLY FOUND IT AND IM SO EXCITED. THIS IS A LOVE STORY WORTH WATCHING. ITS A TYPICAL BOY MEETS GIRL STORY. I THINK LARENZ TATE IS SO SEXY. NIA LONG DOES SOME REALLY GOOD ACTING AND I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED WHY THIS MOVIE DIDNT GET TOO MUCH RECOGNITION. ITS AN AFRICAN AMERICAN MOVIE THAT DOESNT PUT AFRICAN AMERICANS DOWN. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO LAUGH, CRY , AND INTERACT WITH THE CHARACTERS. ITS ONE OF NIA'S BEST MOVIES.Movie Review: LOVE LANGUAGE
Summary: 5 Stars
WHAT CAN I SAY? THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE SO I GUESS MY REVIEW IS BIASED. THIS WAS VERY REFRESHING AFTER SO MANY MOVIES STEREOTYPICAL MOVIES STARRING AFRICAN AMERICANS. YOU SEE PEOPLE ALL LOVE IN THE SAME LANGUAGE, AND IN THIS CASE LANGUAGE WAS USED TO INVITE LOVE, TO MAKE LOVE, TO BETRAY LOVE AND TO CRY OUT FOR LOVE. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS MOVIE, YOU NEED TO BUY IT. THIS IS A COLLECTOR, FOR THOSE WHO STILL BELIEVE IN LOVE CONQUERING ALL.
