The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
This movie is so dreadfully awful, I can't believe I sat through it just to see how this miserable, unfunny, and poorly acted, directed, and written pathetic excuse for a movie would end. RUN... RUN... RUN for the hills if you ever come across it. The clichés are horrible, the acting no better than a high school play, and the lead character is the most annoying I've ever seen. He's self-loathing, psychopathic, and a twit. The supporting cast are a bunch of cardboard cut-outs and poor excuses to the word "actor." Some earlier reviewer said that this movie is up there with "Beautiful Thing." Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!? My guess would be that the writer of the film patterned the Bob character after himself, which would explain a lot. People don't deserve to be subjected to such trash.
I absolutely love this movie! It is so sweet. At the beginning of the movie when Bob and Brendan are wrestling, it was so obvious that Brendan wanted to kiss Bob. He was just scared and confused. I can't believe he ended up sleeping with Sarah though. She was so obsessed with him it was annoying. I mean come on couldn't she see that Brendan was totally not into her? I guess she just wanted him so much that she was oblivious to the fact that he is gay. Brendan and Bob were destined to be together. They make such a great couple. Bob would have been a total idiot to pass up being with Brendan. If I had to choose between Sterling and Brendan... I would ALWAYS choose Brendan.
Geeky gay-boy ends up pursued by hunks in this gay wish-fulfillment romantic indie comedy. Which handsome dreamboat will he pick? Decisions decisions...Initially set among a group of affluent proto-yuppie college students carousing in Washington DC; then shifts to their lives about 5 years later, as they reassemble for the wedding of one of the group.Hunky Christian Maelen is more than competent in his co-starring role, and I'm suprised that he hasn't done more work in features. He has that ol' straight-guy appeal which many gay men will find irresistable.A similar film is the British "Bedrooms and Hallways" (1998).
Just wanting to say that I liked the movie and I was instantly captured by Christian Maelen's eyes and smile and that voice! Anyway, I liked the movie coz it has a simple format. Right to the point and there wasnt a lot of distraction to the story. I too have had a crush while in school and I sympathize with bob. Although the part where the str8-trade comes to me and confesses that he loves me, well that has not happened YET.All in all I liked the movie, can't say much about it. I just do. Christian Maelen has me as a fan and I can't wait to see him in a movie again. ~BABUSH~
