DVD Reviews of Something New (Widescreen Edition)
DVD Review: Nice and Sweet
Summary: 5 Stars
Sanya Lathan and Simon Baker are so sexy together. They really ad a nice, comfortable ease between one another. It does deal with rather apparent issues of interracial dating and romance, although I personally wonder if it is still an issue for people in todays day and age, if it is, then I must be living in a bubble, or just way accepting that all people are equal and it shouldn't matter if two people like each other. However, I really enjoyed this movie. It was light, beautiful romance with some very sexy actors.DVD Review: Something New
Summary: 5 Stars
Irresistibly warm and surprisingly realistic movie. It's great to sit through an adult romantic film portraying real folks who are trying to find a "significant other." Terrific performances bring to life this wonderful movie about mating obstacles that occur when you try to please outside forces when all that really matters is how you feel about your own life and your own personal choices.
DVD Review: There Are No Limitation In Life Experiences
Summary: 5 Stars
No one should allow anyone to manipulate their life. A heart speaks what is felt. However, influences from society can taint a different picture and even worst you allow yourself to become stagnated by others view point. Many people have lost out on life because listening to the advise of narrow-minded view points. This picture shows the struggles of a couple who love each other, but are touched by the prevailing mind-set of a hypocritical society. Both suffered with the reality of their inner self, love speak, hearts beats. I would watch it over and over again.

DVD Review: cute little chick flick - a fun romantic story
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a cute little movie - well acted and a delight to watch. One of those curl up on a couch, feel-good movies that is lovely to watch. It's wonderful to see a person learn about themselves and experience what a "good" man is versus an "ideal" man in the nick of time. Personally, I'd love to live the life this lucky woman chooses for herself. Love Simon Baker's easy smile....he's a KEEPER! The cinematography is beautiful. It is first and foremost a well done love story with some serious eye candy ...DVD Review: Something New
Summary: 5 Stars
That was such a good story and both principals were new to me when I first saw it. Now I'm a big Simon Baker fan.
Sincerely, Margaret
Description of Something New (Widescreen Edition)
Kenya McQueen (Sanaa Lathan) thought she had it all: a successful career, good friends and family. There was just one thing she didn't have under control: her love life. All that changes when she meets sexy, free-spirited Brian Kelly (Simon Baker). But when her ideal man (Blair Underwood) arrives on the scene, Kenya must decide between the relationship everyone expects and the romance no one expected.The tricky topic of interracial romance gets a sexy, charming, and unexpectedly realistic treatment in Something New. Kenya (Sanaa Lathan, Out of Time, Alien Vs. Predator), a successful accountant, gets set up on a blind date with Brian (Simon Baker, The Ring Two)--only to discover that he's white, leading her to cut the date short. At a party, Kenya admires the garden and gets introduced to the landscape architect: Brian. Thus begins a bumpy but increasingly sparky relationship, despite opposition from Kenya's friends and family, as well as Kenya and Brian's own internal resistance. Make no mistake, Something New is a mainstream romantic comedy, with ridiculously attractive people grappling with problems that get solved with just a little too much ease--but along the way, Kriss Turner's script, Sanaa Hamri's direction, and Baker's and especially Lathan's performances ground the movie in something resembling the real world. Kenya's and Brian's emotional terrain has a genuine texture to it; the rhythm of the dialogue and the visual pacing allows their characters to breathe and become more genuine and vivid than your standard rom-com lovers. The strong supporting cast--including Alfre Woodard (Crooklyn), Donald Faison (Scrubs), Mike Epps (Next Friday), and Blair Underwood (Full Frontal)--doesn't hurt. But Lathan owns the movie; this actress deserves true stardom. --Bret Fetzer
