He's also so addicted to porn that he knows all the clerks at his favorite shop, the Pornucopia, on a first name basis. This spells trouble for him when he finally meets the girl of his dreams, executive Jasmine (Marlayne Afflack). Everything's perfect, except for one thing--now that he has a real, live woman, he can't get aroused without his beloved porn! A Canadian-made romantic comedy with a mostly black leading cast, Sudz Sutherland's LOVE, SEX, & EATING THE BONES deals with a subject that could easily be exploitative. But this frank, smart production refuses to go for easily laughs, dealing with its subject in a realistic, yet often hilarious way. Ed Robertson of pop group Barenaked Ladies costars. [More]

The keyword here is 'unimportant'. Not that every film released has to be important, but they should at least try to be worth the ticket price.

[Sutherland] never quite balances the darkness attending Michael's problem with the sunshine glowing everywhere else.

To describe it simply by its plot is to fail to do justice to its sass and its smart, goodhearted take on sexuality and relationships.

Sutherland's artful trick is to stick a serious tension -- sex objects versus love subjects -- into a genre flick without losing his balance, without sacrificing either the comedic levity or the thematic weight.

Quirky in a typically Canadian way, the film is a romantic comedy that almost manages to overcome the inherent conventions of the genre.

Sly, raunchy and very, very funny.

When it's not being juvenile, the film has some interesting things to say about love and sex. Hill Harper shines in a challenging role.
