I loved it. I love the story, I love that this was done in 1997 and the actors were about my age at that time. I love the music and dialog. I thought the actors and production were great.
....but damn is it frustrating to watch 2 young people that are good for each other make mistakes! Then again, that's what young people do.
The most recent review gave it a 3 because Darius was was "a stalker". I wrote my friend last night and said similar! 20+ years ago it wouldn't have been as big of a deal to figure out someone's address and just show up at their house. Now it seems a bit creepy. Times have changed and I have changed. I thought about that last night.
So, it's a little dated in a few ways, and some may not enjoy this film because of that. However, if you were in your 20s (or teens or 30s) in the 1990s, and you want a love story, then you'll love this.

Darius Lovehall: Say, baby... can I be Your slave? I've got to admit girl you're the shit girl... and I'm digging you like a grave. Now, do they call you Daughter to the Spinning Pulsar... or maybe Queen of 10,000 moons? Sister to the Distant yet Rising Star? Is your name Yemaya? Oh, hell no. Its got to be Oshun. Oooh, is that a smile me put on your face, child... wide as a field of jasmine and clover? Talk that talk, honey. Walk that walk, money. High on legs that'll spite Jehovah. Shit. Who am I? It's not important. But me they call me brother to the night. And right now... I'm the blues in yourleft thigh... trying to become the funk in your right. Who am I? I'll be whoever you say? But right now I'm the sight-raped hunter... blindly pursuing you as my prey. And I just want to give you injections... of sublime erections... and get you to dance to my rhythm... make you dream archetypes... of black angels in flight... upon wings of distorted, contorted... metaphoric jizm. Come on slim. Fuck your man. I ain't worried about him. It's you who I want to step to my scene. 'cause rather the deal with the fallacy... of this dry-ass reality... I'd rather dance and romance your sweet ass in a wet dream. Who am I? Well, they call me Brother to the night. And right now I'm the blues in your left thigh... trying to become the funk in your right. Is that all right?
