Info

Jay Brooks is that black guy who digs indie rock, graphic novels, and dates white chicks. After a slew of bad break-ups, Jay gives up white women, "cold turkey," and he goes on a mission: "Operation Brown Sugar". But because Jay doesn't fit the "brotha" stereotype, he fails miserably with the "sistahs." Then he meets the dynamic Catherine, a misunderstood "Half-rican Canadian", who's as righteously quirky as he is. To win her heart, Jay must confront his fears as he realizes commitment is a bigger issue than race.

I'm Through with White Girls Audience Reviews

Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
damnpandamonium This title is incredibly racist. I cannot believe that movies like this are allowed to be made. Imagine a movie all about the perils of dating black men.OH NO BUT THAT WOULD BE RACIST, WOULDN'T IT?It's incredibly sad that as a society we're unable to get over the whole race issue. We try and teach our children to look beyond a persons skin color, but movies like this continue to surface. How can a child ignore race when it is thrust in their faces everywhere, even at the movies. The title alone is unacceptable, and no amount of moral learned is an excuse to have that as a title. Might as well change the movie to "I'm a Huge Racist"
barrywilliams993 The movie is plainly offensive to both whites and blacks. I found many of the "jokes" to be racist towards white and playing upon stereotypes. The same sort of thing in a "white" movie would draw howls of protest! What amazes me is the fact that there is a paltry number of "review" and the majority of them have glowing praise for this vapid piece of tripe. Frankly, I think the fix is in! I think it is an effort by the "reviewers" to puff up another lame black "comedy".For me, the only thing that was missing was the black guy in a fat woman suit.SHEESH!
hirsch-jesse I saw this one at the Roxbury Film Festival and it brought down the house. Many moments of warm, engaging comedy (Jay Brooks dancing is priceless.) But underneath its typical romcom plot line (hapless male hero, has issues with commitment, meets the girl who may change everything, but is it too late?) is smart and incisive commentary on gender, aging and ambition, with a hint of race relations for flavor.On a side note, Lia Johnson is incredibly sexy and charming as the main female lead. I don't know many actresses who could put neon yarn in her hair without seeming like a self-conscious teenager or a vagrant, but she pulls it off with panache. Hopefully we'll see more of this lovely actress in the future!
dark-lord-jackson I originally saw this film at the Black film festival in Martha's Vineyard. I loved it write from the get-go. It's a great love story chronicling Jay Brooks' love lives and this quest he puts himself on. It The acting acting is terrific and the production values are excellent. The characters are engaging- some very abstract and others stereotyped for specific effects- and the way they all mesh together and the ending itself are superb. I truly loved every moment of this movie.However do not be deceived by the title. It is not some big racial slur, joking about black men and white women. It actually reveals that race is is a superficial element that is often overly stressed in relationships and that the issue (at least with Brooks) is commitment.I only just am reviewing it not because it came up in a conversation earlier today, but if you every have an opportunity see this movie do so. I highly recommend it.
