...BETTER THAN CHOCOLATE puts a sunny, giddy spin on this northerly locale, thanks to Gregory Middleton's lively cinematography...

... for those looking for more, they'll have to tell the filmmaking chefs to put something other than Chocolate on the menu.

Rating: 2/4 --
The makers of gay-themed films often ignore this rule: Romantic comedy clichés don't become innovative just because the lovers are the same sex.
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Product Description:
Life is going great for Maggie. She has recently moved out on her own and found the woman of her dreams. However, things quickly change when her mother and brother are forced to move into Maggie's tiny loft sublet with her. All the freedom and space she has gained is compromised, and she believes she must keep her blossoming affair a secret. But it's the clandestine romance that inadvertently introduces her family to a host of new experiences, many of which are better than chocolate. Karin Dwyer and Christina Cox are terrific as the young lovers, and Wendy Crewson is splendid as Maggie's mother, who might finally be ready to break out and start having some fun in her life.
