You won't be disappointed!

Such a frustrating disappointment

A Masterpiece!

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This movie is not a high dollar production. It doesn't need to be. This movie is emotional, intellectual, heart-wrenching and sadly beautiful. I experienced a similar overall feeling from watching "Gia" - a movie about supermodels and the pitfalls of modeling (That happens to be Angelina Jolie's best film - unlike her others, and worth watching.) What Love the Hard Way has, that other films don't, are characters who you really connect with. Not because you share things in common with them, but because they are multi-faceted beings with enough background story to deeply invest the viewer in their fate.This review/comment isn't going like I had planned. I think the IMDb rating of this film is far too low, and I think those people who gave it a low score were either not paying attention, or not allowing themselves to do so.Which isn't surprising, because this film is hard to watch at times. Not because it's dull or poorly constructed, but because you don't want to feel the pain.Watch it. The Ying and Yang are in full blossom here.

Love the Hard Way is a New York romance story of a grad student named Claire and the Jack, the petty thief and secret writer she falls for. Jack, played by the wonderful Oscar winner Adrien Brody, claims to have been with 200 women. One night stands are all they are to Jack, but when he meets Claire ,portrayed by the beautiful Charlotte Ayanna, who wants a real relationship, Jack's world is turned up upside-down by a combination of sex, true love, and loyalty. Jack and his friend Charlie (Jon Seda) are partners in crime. Claire is a grad student who gets straight As. Wanting to rebel a little she gets with Jack. Her life goes down the drain for his love and all he does is push her away! Do they work it out? I guess you'll have to see the movie to find out. With many twists and turns Love the Hard Way is a must she drama that can make you cry.

this is my all time favorite movie..... i don't know why it didn't get very popularand don't care i love this movie....Adrien Brody is soo incredibly hott in this movie and it is justawesome no other words can describe it....my friendsRoxy, Dustin, and Mike all agree that it is the bestmovie ever...and if anyone wants to borrow it i say i lost it cause i am not suppose to share it and i don't want too....it is the best movie in the world and i don't care what anyone says and i hate people who put down MY movie!!!!

I first saw Love the Hard Way on cable and absolutely loved it, probably because it kinda resembled my relationship with my ex boyfriend. I did not do anything that Claire did, but my ex, was very much like Jack, with sleeping with other girls and lying, but yet was in love with me. My ex did change over time like Jack did, but he only did it by my threatening to leave him. If Claire would have threatened to leave him, I think it would have affected him but not as much as other people. I never changed myself to make my ex love me because I thought there was something wrong with me. Claire did that but only because every one of Jack's friends told her she doesn't belong in that life. After watching the DVD features, which I suggest any fan of this film to do, the ending that I had hoped for... the walk didn't end at the lab... was true. There is a deleted scene of them visiting Charlie in jail, and also there's a commentary on the making of the movie. It's very useful and it makes people who know that Jack changed for Claire and had hope for the two to be together, learn that they ended up together. There was too much of a bond to let that go between them. I praise the director/writer for his work on this movie.
