Better Than Chocolate (1999)

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

First of all, this movie shows just how tastefully lesbian sex can be portrayed on the big screen. It's hot. Super hot. If I saw something like that happen in real life, I think I would explode.Not hardcore or anything like that, just creative and beautiful. The girls aren't even 10's, but they totally make it work.Sex aside, this movie actually has quite a good story, is pretty funny, and I think just about every character is likable in some way. But you definitely have to be open minded to enjoy this one.I wanted to watch this one for all the wrong reasons, only to find out that it is actually a very good movie. I'm glad I watched this one in its entirety... with the sound on.

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?

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.

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.
