- "Love & Sex"
(Reviewed August 29, 2000)
- Imagine taking the excellent Albert Brooks movie "Modern Romance," sucking every last bit of humor out of it, changing the viewpoint character from a neurotically indecisive
boyfriend to the flakey woman he is pursuing, and then going through the script to make sure that not a single instance of cleverness, wit or imagination is anywhere in evidence. What do you get? This
odorous bomb of a movie. Thankfully, lead actress Famke Janssen segued from this sitcom-stupid waste of time to playing smolderingly sexy Jean Grey in "X-Men." Trust me, folks, it was a big step up.
Also, I feel obligated to point out that even though this movie is titled "Love & Sex" there is ABSOLUTELY NO NUDITY WHATSOEVER, so don't go expecting to see Dark Phoenix's
bodacious ta-tas. Can you say "false advertising?"
