Chocolate for Breakfast

"Chocolate For Breakfast" aired on cable under the title "Four and a Half Women". A cute, lively little comedy about four roomies and their day-to-day vicissitudes is full of the usual girl talk stuff: career, boyfriends, sex, pregnancy, yeast infections, and the ever popular "issues". I frowned at first but was quickly won over by the fresh faces, solid performances, and script's creative edge. A fun sitcom level non-rated watch for females old enough for an "R" rating.

This movie has very fresh ideas and interesting, even quirky, characters. It is well-written and entertaining, and there is something for everyone despite the main characters being 4 women. A bit like "Sex in the City" meets "Ally McBeal", it is both very funny and very poignant.

One of the most deftly written and conceptualised plots, ever - long before the HBO "Sex and the City"; Colorful and intriguing characters with standout performances by all concerned; Who would have ever thought that four (very different) women sharing an apartment in New York could be so much fun! - with all their career problems, personal problems and MEN problems; Very palatable; very enjoyable!; A well-told tale!; One of the most creative, up-and-coming directors, around.
