Great.......2006-06-29

Ok then, Ive wanted this film for some time and now Ive got it.
This film was great I enjoyed it so much that ive told my friends about it. Yes the acting is sometimes wooden and the soundtrack also at times makes it hard to hear what the actors are saying. But I didnt care .

The film is about Griff who is secretly sleeping with his friend Pete. After an argument the two of them had Pete gets viciously attacked by Homophobic thugs. Griff knows something no-one else knows about the vehicle the thugs were in but will have to come out to help the detective to find the people who did it. I found this film very boring for most of it and the acting had much to be desired for but it does have some good bits to it, and may appeal to some people.

This is a lovely film with some beautiful moments, though these moments could have been developed further. The main characters are well-portrayed by the actors. Some of the scenes and dialogue are a little cliched, but mostly enjoyable.

It would have been good to see some more extras on the DVD. There is some good music, though occasionally it intrudes too much.

The plot is handled well, though there are one or two irrelevant parts and again some aspects could have been delved into with a little more detail.

However, this is a good, tidy movie and I have watched it lots of times since I bought it!

Great film!.......2003-05-14

Very good film although the acting leaves something to be desired in places. It's a very touching story which concerns some good issues which are treated well!!
I would recommmend it to all!

Wow - A Complete Surprise.......2002-01-23

When I started watching this film I almost turned it off - I thought I was in for 90 minutes of High School 'Dude' talk and not much else. But after the first 30 mnutes or so it suddenly got good.

There are no big stars in this film, and it could certainly have been made a whole lot better by better script writing and a bit less cheesey background music that played throughout.

But the story is a simple dilemma of to do the right thing, or not. In its own way, the film dealt with coming out in an incredibly homophobic environment, it dealt with accepting feelings and growing up.

Towards the end of the film I was surprised to find I had tears in my eyes, and the final scene of the film was unexpectedly moving, even though it was not based on the central point of the story.

The two main stars played their parts well, and Denita, the friend John makes during his troubles was wonderful - completely understated, but conveying so much about friendship.

All in all, if you have this film and have not made it to the end - give it another go - it is well worth it!
