Storyline

Kenya McQueen thought she had it all: a successful career, good friends and family. There was just one thing she didn't have under control: her love life. All that changes when she meets sexy, free-spirited Brian Kelly. But when her ideal man arrives on the scene, Kenya must decide between the relationship everyone expects and the romance no one expected.

Critics consensus

“Something New tackles serious questions about race and interracial relationships with genuine appeal and an alluring romance that develops as naturally as the plot.”

... it's one of the few romantic movies that center around an interracial relationship and keeps it real.

K

Kat Brown

RTEmpire MagazineNov 30, 2006

Something New isn't just silly, it's an embarrassment to people who are genuinely trying to level the racial playing field in America today.

RTBBC.comNov 28, 2006

Generally the story swings wildly from preachy to just plain silly. It is truly a story of missed opportunities.

K

Kam Williams

RTBean Soup TimesApr 27, 2007

Mixing mirth with more sophisticated moments, this delightful romantic romp ultimately triumphs primarily because of the easy-going screen chemistry generated by Sanaa Lathan and Simon Baker.
