I'm Through With White Girls (2007) 8/10

Starring : Anthony Montgomery, Ryan Alosio, Lia Johnson
Director : Jennifer Sharp
Running Time : 93 mins

Jay Brooks (Montgomery) is a graphic novelist who only likes dating white girls, but after one to many bad breakups he decides to give up on white women and try to find a black woman to date, but finding the right woman isn't easy even if he looks within his own race. However, when he meets Catherine (Johnson), a mixed black girl who shares similar interests to him, he realises that committing to one woman may be harder than just finding one.

This was a surprisingly interesting and thought provoking comedy. Montgomery and Johnson make a nice couple, and their collected issues with relationships and trust pan out into a well crafted story. It may sound like race is a pivotal part of this movie, but the real body of this movie is about commitment nad that really makes for a universally appealing tale.
