Well Deserved Praise

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Seriously.. a relationship with just two people at times can be trying enough. Add a third person and you now have four relationships within the triangle.. two male-female, one male-male, and another male-female-male. Yea, that's sure to work for a good length of time. These kinds of films are annoying for they spend the entire time working on the setup of the love triangle. What would be much more interesting is to see how it would go forward from the initial stage of love-intoxication to real life circumstances. As inevitably one of the three 'pairs' is going to wind up being more 'exclusive' and in so doing, alienating the third party. Or one of the three many wanna go outside the little group for a fourth! The world's breakup rate is a 'majority of the time'... this just way increases the odds.

This shallow, irritating, sterile movie offers nothing but titillation for a certain sort of voyeur, maybe for women who like to watch men make out... the female equivalent of men whose ultimate fantasy is sex with two women. Any gay man who likes this movie needs to have his head examined - both of them.This is a movie, like Brokeback Mountain, that was made BY straight people FOR straight people (as if they didn't already have enough movies) who think shoehorning gay sex into their movie makes it cool, or something dumb like that. It's an attitude that makes me furious and insults the gay men I suppose it means to pander to.It's even worse than Brokeback Mountain, though, and casting Llorenç González can't be a coincidence: he looks almost exactly like Jake Gyllenhaal and is almost as ugly. Álvaro Cervantes is gorgeous and extremely sexy; without him this movie would have been just another stupid straight movie, but he's wasted in it.Gay men should boycott all movies (like this one) that show twenty minutes of graphic straight sex for every twenty seconds of censored, castrated gay sex. That's like spitting in our faces, proving that we're nothing but pawns in their sick heterosexual fantasies.

I absolutely loved this movie. I feel like I only get a great film like this every year or so and I was so excited when it turned out to be so good. I definitely added it to my favorites list with "Weekend", "Private Romeo", "The Dreamers", "Loose Cannons", "Shortbus". I hope there are still more films out there like this one that I just haven't found yet. The acting was great by all of the main characters. The quality of the film was top notch which is often a bummer in gay films. The look and feel of the movie kind of reminded me of "mammoth" or "babel" which I loved as well. I am no expert but I have watched more movies than I can count especially in this genre and if you like any of the movies I listed I am guessing you will like this one too.

I LOVED this movie! Stumbled upon it by a happy accident and was thrilled to find it! It is very seductive and alive with energy and explores love and sexuality and how these characters refuse to be limited in their lives and how they express that love. It's very realistic and the acting and writing is very good and the look of the movie has high production values and great direction! I love indie films because they are brave enough to explore themes you rarely see in main stream films. Alvaro Cervantes who plays Rai is poised for stardom and he could seduce anyone into falling in love with him. Highly recommend this film!!
