[Sutherland] never quite balances the darkness attending Michael's problem with the sunshine glowing everywhere else. Go to Full Review
Rick Groen Globe and Mail 03/05/2004
3/4
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. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
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. Go to Full Review
David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 03/05/2004
2/4
Quirky in a typically Canadian way, the film is a romantic comedy that almost manages to overcome the inherent conventions of the genre. Go to Full Review

Sly, raunchy and very, very funny. Go to Full Review

Frances H 11/27/2012 Interesting film that not only deals with addiction to pornography, but also to being an observer rather than a liver of life. Harper hill is charming in the lead role, looking very different from his CSI:NY alter ego. See more 06/02/2012 Straight craziness in the insomniacs theater See more 01/08/2012 Good movie. Canadians trying to be Jamaicans lol See more 06/02/2011 Randomly watched this movie on tv late one night. It was cool, i liked it. See more 08/13/2010 I totally adore Hill Harper! This movie was a very good romantice comedy that a lot of people overlooked. Check it out! See more 05/12/2010 [color=white]So today, again out of boredom, I watched the Canadian flick [i]Love, Sex and Eating the Bones[/i]. [/color] [color=#ffffff]So, my sole reason for watching this flick was to see Ed Robertson of the Barenaked Ladies, my favourite band. He's a funny guy, and he's funny (if underused) in this movie. I laughed so hard at the scene where he's on the porn set. Soooo funny. I also admired it for taking a stab at originality. They tried some interesting effects, like the tv fuzz porn star and the glowing pictures indicating his artistic vision. So, it had just enough of these little quirks to keep it interesting. Also, a slight quirk on the typical romantic comedy genre, with a porn addiction and not being able to get it up thrown in. Nice to see something set in Toronto as well. [/color] [color=#ffffff]However, it was pretty much your standard "boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl back" flick. I would have liked to see it be a bit more original, as it attempted. You knew what was going to happen the minute he entered the "star in a porn" contest at the beginning. Ultimately, it was a little dull. I wasn't a huge fan of the lead actress either. [/color] [color=#ffffff]The Opinion: Good to see, once. [/color] See more Read all reviews
