Loving Jezebel (1999)

Let's be realistic.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Some put this movie as a romantic comedy. While there was one funny part, it wasn't really what i considered a romantic comedy.I watched this movie on an OnDemand service, and kept watching through it. You have a man, Theo Harper, and his trials and tribulations with women that fall for him ... that always are either married or having boyfriends.This movie reaches out, in my opinion, to the nice guys that always wind up tending to the aids of those women out there that have problems and need someone to solve them because there boyfriend or husband isn't doing it properly.THere have been plenty of movies that talk about the "nice guy" and try to work on how the "nice guy" does things, but this movie, really defines what it seems we all go through...except that in Theo's case, he gets laid a lot more. :)

In a normal romantic comedy Theodore would be dashing and suave trying to win the love of his soulmate from her less deserving suitor.Unfortunately he seems to find a lot of ' soulmates' in his travels.Recently there's Frances ( Parker) who has more issues then Time magazine. Not to mention the sophisticated Mona ( Holt ) who is world wise and is pretty sure that Theodore is the one for her. Pity her boyfriend and Theodores best friend doesn't agree.Finally we come to Samantha ( Holloman) off centre but filled with hope that is the perfect match for him. Unfortunately for them both there's her self centered jerk of a husband Gabe ( played with smooth smugness by Moscow) that could end that match stone cold dead.I like Theodore because he isn't going around causing havoc just to add names to a book, he isn't being the typical stud that finds love. There is something lovable about him that wins both these women and the audience over.Its different, its not about being a player but being a man looking for true love.How can you not like that.

This movie was very pleasant to watch. It was a fun romantic comedy about a man that has always ended up with the wrong type of woman He seemed to always attract the wrong women, throughout his life.I really enjoyed this movie.

This story is so different, so funny, so interesting. You actually feel sorry for the Man for once. Hill Harper is an excellent actor, a must see. The characters had perfect timing and each one played their part and brought this thing together.
