Review of Love Song

Love Song (2000 TV Movie)
7/10
Cute Interracial Movie
24 December 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I am biased towards any interracial love story that does not have Whoopie Goldberg as a love interest (yeesch)or ugly or nerdy guy with black chick or fat black sista scenarios. This was a cute movie and Cristian Kane brought a lot to the movie. Again very good looking cast. I think Monica's handlers should have allowed her more leeway and depth to show passion between her and Cristian but I guess black girl and white guy together is still too much of a taboo than the reverse (i.e. NBA, Quincy Jones Lionel Ritchie). I could buy the whole social class difference and love at first sight story but they needed to have a good DNA swapping scene to give it that extra push, and Monica needs some more acting lessons. Also the friends and family not approving because of colour is soooo played out and boring since most of the time friends and family don't like the person your with even if they are the same race or religion. All in all cute flick for the G rated generation.
