Love Song

Like many people, I thought that the movie would be pure fluff. But I watched it because I am an idealistic person at heart. I was pleasantly surprised. It was a good story, the acting could have been better but that's true of many movies. Believe it or not, It is possible to fall in love with someone in a week's time especially when you are already open to the idea of making a change in your life. It is definitely possible when the object of your affection is someone with whom you feel mutual trust, respect, admiration , attraction and support. It also helps matters when the object of your affection is Christian Kane. He is undeniably sexy. I have seen the movie 3 times and I'm not the target audience. I'm 33 years old and married but I understand the true message of the movie-Follow your heart. Even if others don't agree with you, you have to do what makes you happy. Too many of us try to do things to please others and we never find fulfillment in our own lives because we don't spend enough time and energy doing what makes us happy. People should not be bothered by the interracial aspect of the movie. Camille did not fall in love with Billy because he was rich or white, she fell in love with him because they had shared interests, he understood her, he listened to her and he supported her goals. Isn't that what we all look for in a mate? That's why the movie is universally appealing. It's something that we can all relate to.

This film was much better than I expected it would be - predictable, yes, but that was not unexpected. It's the love story - few are that original. I thought the characters were very well developed and likeable - you grew to really care about the wellbeing and happiness of the main character's. 'Camille's' friends offered a humourous edge whilst Monica herself played Camille brilliantly.

I also really liked the music, it was sort of like 'Save the last dance' in that way. Hiphop meets the Blues. This leads me onto my new point....Christian Kane. Wonderful voice. Just wonderful. I know him as Lindsey McDonald from the TV show 'Angel' - he's what first attracted me to this film. I never thought a long haired man could be so damn attractive (Long-hair, as a rule, is a no-no).

There were a lot of chemistry between the characters, thanks to Monica's and Christian's talents of acting.

I give it a high rating of 8/9 out of 10, losing marks for being quite cheesy - otherwise highly enjoyable.

See it!

This movie is essentially an update of "Dirty Dancing." A girl from an upper-crust background defies her overprotective parents to be with a guy from the wrong side of the tracks whose interests -- and, more importantly, whose fine character -- match her own.

For a television movie, it was much better than average -- not quite as good as Dirty Dancing, but still worth watching more than once.

The only real flaw is that the female lead was not (IMHO) able to convincingly portray sexual attraction to the male lead (the opposite was not the case). I attribute this either to her being an inexperienced actress (her career is as a singer) or to being "shy" about being in even a screen romance with a man of a different race.

I love the movie Love Song. I think Monica and Christian did an excellent job with their acting as well as their singing. Even though it was a predictable movie, it also had you wondering what happened when Monica went back to her boyfriend. As a musician myself, I know that a song can say a lot to some one and the theme song to the movie said a lot! The entertainment world has a new star on the rise and his name is Christian Kane!

With two amazing leads (Monica and Christian Kane), and some amazing music, this tv movie that normally would be cheesy and fluff has a real heart and true emotion.

The original songs in the movie are amazing when sung by these talented musicians. And the plot of a young girl, controlled by her family and desire to make them happy for so long, coming into her own strength and realizing what she wants is something different from what they want for her, is really beautiful and moves along nicely.

The interracial aspect was there somewhat, but seeing the relationship between the two leads move along and seeing their feelings grow is really amazing to watch.

If you're in the mood for a romantic comedy with some great music, this is a great movie to watch. (And not too bad for a girls night, as...Christian Kane? Not likely to disappoint any females in the audience ;) ) Definitely gets a 10 out of 10!
