I was surprised by how much I really liked this film. I'm kind of fussy about romantic comedy, as so much of it seems to follow the exact same plot. This little urban romance was different from the start. It had a lot of little twists and turns which held my attention right to the end. The set-up was great and followed with frustration, annoyance, and disappointment as the plot drew toward the conclusion. And the ending was never a foregone conclusion. I was on the edge of my seat hoping for a happy ending right up to the end. I watched it with my daughter and best friend and we all loved it. If you like romantic comedy, you must watch Anatomy of Love. Can't wait to see more work by Way-Young.
... View MoreI enjoy a good indie film when it is done correctly. I enjoy movies that feature African American characters that are not stereotyped or made to be overly comedic. Anatomy of Love is such a film. It's a good story that deals with real people in a real setting and the people just happen to be of color. I truly enjoyed this film of no name actors and unestablished filmmakers. A good college setting (brought me back in my own memory) with a good cast of actors bringing the characters to life. I believe many young people can relate to the characters in this film. It's definitely identifiable in many ways. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
... View MoreThis movie made me laugh, cry and laugh even more. This is the perfect date night movie and if you're feeling a little risqué maybe family movie as well. I felt like there was finally a movie with a message yet entertaining. It seems like there are no good romantic comedies anymore. We definitely need more movies like this; I so hope that there is a part two. Considering that the lead guy was very easy on the eye along with his crew. They were very goofy but supportive of their boy. "The Anatomy of Love" is a classic. If you haven't seen this movie yet then you are missing out on something worth seeing. You will fall in love with the cast within the first few seconds of the movie. Again I hope that there is a part two in the making because it is needed. Hurry and go get this movie;-)
... View More"The Anatomy of Love" is a realistic story about love, desire and friendship. In this day and age the lines between true love, lust and friendship are so blurred. "The Anatomy of Love" does a great job touching upon all of these issues and makes you care about Jenesis and Cassious' friendship/ relationship. It beckons you to ask yourself several questions, what love is for you and what kind of person you desire to fall in love with or continue loving for the rest of your life? Does a best friend make a great love interest or is it a trap for the hopeless romantic Cassious. Are the consequences of falling in love with your best friend, Jenesis, worth it or is Cassious just a glutton for punishment? Also, at what point should you listen or stop listening to your boys regarding your love life. Finally, how big a part does one's image of love from their childhood effect's one's view of love later on in life? A great date movie, that addresses all of these issues.
