Many love stories contrive to get their characters together at the end. This one contrives, not to keep them apart, but to bring them to a bittersweet awareness that is above simple love. Some audience members would probably prefer a romantic embrace in the sunset, as the music swells. But Love Jones'' is too smart for that.
Still, even when the plot sags, the erotic moodiness of Love Jones remains fresh.
