A Mediocre Film About Love, Friendship & Sex
Apr 25, 2008
The_Flesh_Eating_Vegan - imdb.com
'Love & Sex' follows the old formula of romantic comedies and this one does not have the unique charm that many likable romantic comedies have. It starts off well and there are some funny moments but at some places it... Full review

My wife and I watched it quite by accident recently. Very funny, warm and witty. Reminded me of Blind Date, Continental Devide, but more clever. We laughed and cried at the foibles of both the main actors. The story line... Full review

I absolutely love this movie. It is sweet, funny and clever. I came across on HBO one night and loved it. I git right on-line and bought and watch it whenever I see it on HBO again. Famke Janssen is... Full review

I must admit that I love this kind of films, where we follow the story of ordinary people through their struggle in relationships. It is wonderfully done her, with so many scenes which most of us can identify with, and... Full review
"Sex and Love" is one of my favorite romantic comedies of recent vintage. It may in fact be may favorite.It is from a decidedly 30 something, as opposed to 20 something, point of view. There is no question that that... Full review
A light hand on heavy stuff with excellent acting

Valerie Breiman treats the subject of love and sex with almost the perfect balance. It remains funny and light while treading on some pretty heavy issues. I saw it at a film festival and it was a welcome relief from... Full review

Boxoffice Magazine
A refreshing spin on the boy-meets-girl trajectory, Valerie Breiman's semi-autobiographical debut "Love and Sex" is a funny and realistic look at dating in the '90s. But Breiman's observations of the dating game are both clever and accurate, making "Love and Sex" a film that viewers laugh at because they identify with it. ... Full Review

Scott's Movie Reviews
At a scant 82 minutes, "Love & Sex" is short and sweet. In this case, paying for "Sex" is money well spent. Writer/director Breiman didn't have to look far for her inspiration for "Love & Sex. ... Full Review

Reel.com
Love and Sex also shows how even the most compatible lovers can see their rapport undone by time and a few annoying personal tics Sure, this setup sounds primed for a hefty dose of Nora Ephron saccharine, but Breiman's script has enough sass and freshness to rival a whole season of Sex and the City . ...

Chicago Sun-Times
The film seems shy of sexual intimacy and physical delight, and the lovers approach each other with all the perplexity of a jigsaw fanatic who has just discovered pieces are missing. If " Love & Sex " contained nothing else, it would pass into memory for a pickup line that is either fatal or inspired, I am still trying to decide which: "You have those long E.T. fingers, like a tree frog. ...
