Jason's Lyric -

One of the best film's I have ever seen

Jason's Lyric is one of the only movies to have realistic romance and passion there are very few films that have that. I feel this is one of the best romances ever made. Allen Payne performance is amazing so is Jada Pinkett Smith (...) the whole cast is great I loved this movie. But its a film for adults only they cut some scenes out of the movie to avoid a NC-17 rating. But even with the scenes they cut it still should have got the NC-17 rating. The love scenes in the movie are still very graphic. I have seen NC-17 rated movies and the sex in those films are not even close to the sex in the R rated Jason's Lyric. So I don't know what the Mpaa is doing but there giving the wrong movie NC-17 and giveing the ones that should an R rating. But anyway this is a amazing film and is for adults only.(...)

Incredible Casting Makes for a First-Rate Film!

Shakespearean/Freudian overtones coupled with a dynamic love story make "Jason's Lyrics" one of the premier films of the 90's. The acting of Allen Payne and Jada Pinkett as the title's stars, "Jason and Lyric, respectively), along with Bokeem Woodbine ("Joshua"), Suzanne Douglass (Jason's mother), and the brilliant Forest Whitaker ("Maddog")is flawless. One feels for all the characters as the tragedy of their lives unfolds on screen.

Credit must also be given to Eddie Griffin and Lisa Nicole Carson. The former adds a little humor to an otherwise starkly grim and realistic story while the latter serves as Lyric's "muse".

Also, the casting of the actors Sean Hutchinson and Burleigh Moore that played younger versions of Payne and Woodbine is commendable. Besides being extremely talented, they LOOK the part.

As others have commented, the "acting" during the intimate scenes makes this film definitely for the adult.
