Summary: Relax, It's Just Good!
Review: A group of eccentric friends struggle to find sex, love, and happiness in Los Angeles, with rather unexpected and surprising consequences. Overall I really enjoyed this little indie film although the dvd quality/transfer had a bit to be desired..but that's ok. The cast is likeable and charming although some people may be offended right off the bat in the beginning with some graphic sex talk/scenes but that sets the tone of the film. There is also a suprise twist with some shocking results towards the middle of the film...let's just say its a twist on rape. Anyway-it definitely wont be everyone's "cup of tea" but if you're daring and like a good sex "dramedy" check it out!

Summary: For Anyone With Friends
Review: Admittedly, the title of this movie caught my attention first. I figured it would be either something stupidly amusing, or ridiculously fictional. I was pleasantly proven wrong. Through the course of the movie I found myself hurting for Vincey, yet with a strange sense of justification in what he did. I cried for Tara, first for losing Gus, then for losing .. well, I won't ruin it for you. I was crying happy-tears for Serena and Robin. Never liked Megan anyway. Buzz just grew on you; you couldn't help it. Javi is like the little brother you wish you had. This movie is one of the best times I've ever had watching TV. It covered every emotion know to humanity, but fluidly, while still being incredibly believable. It showed the positive, wonderful parts of homosexuality, yet didn't make it seem like one big party. The relationships were real, and heartfelt, but the arguments weren't exagerated or overdone. I relate very closely to Tara, the "fag hag," so by the end of the movie I found myself yearning for more information on what happened to all the wonderful characters that I grew to know and love. This is definately a movie that will quickly be purchased, but that will not-so-quickly be replaced. A true gem for anyone who has friends ...

Summary: seriously funny
Review: Films like this one renew my faith in the possibility of good gay and lesbian film making. It's funny, yet tackles serious subjects, and appeals to both gay male and lesbian viewers. Well written and well acted, RELAX is a keeper!

Summary: RELAX. . . IT'S JUST A FUNNY MOVIE!
Review: For all you sisters out there who get all sick and tired of the sad and beat down AIDS dramas and psycho lesbian killers, you might want to check out this little gem. "Relax" features several characters who will make you laugh, cuss, and cry (all at the same time). You've got your devoted gay/christian couple whose life seems perfect. You've got the character with the unrequited love/crush for another. You've got gay bashers who get their commupence and you've got, of course, the drama queen, gay activist artist and most importantly, the [person] hag who keeps everyone in check. This movie has lots of great one liners and even though it's evident that it's low budget (check out the boom mikes showing ALL OVER THE PLACE!!) you can tell that it was made with a lotta heart. Buy this if you collect gay/lesbian films and/or love the Jennifer Tilly! I love-a the Jennifer Tilly! I love-a this movie!

Summary: Not what I was expecting
Review: I bought this DVD based on the reviews I had read on here. I wasn't quite sure what to expect. What I got was a totally interesting, intriguing and though provoking movie that provides laughs and tears. One thing is for sure, if you have a problem with gay people, this isn't the movie for you. This shows (sorta) some of the aspects of gay and lesbian life but ultimately it's about relationships, regardless of gay or straight. I found some of the movie disturbing because things happen that I didn't quite expect but still an awesome movie that says something about life. Don't miss this one.

Summary: I Can't Relax!
Review: I can't relax when watching this movie! The first time I viewed it was on the DVD I had ordered. (Oddly, this movie didn't come to the theatres here in Lubbock, Texas.) During the early parts of the movie, I missed a great deal of the dialogue because I couldn't stop laughing. But then the intense humor gave way to intensely disturbing plot twists. The second time I watched it was just as good, and I caught the rest of the dialogue. I'm sure I'll watch it countless more times.

Summary: A great movie to watch
Review: I first seen the movie at the theatres but loved it so much that i bought my own copy. I couldn't find the movie anywhere in town to buy. So someone referred me to Amazon.com. I liked the movie. It displays the social lives between gay and straight friends. The story is funny and sad in parts. I remember watching it the first time,,,,,i really felt like i had watched a good movie afterwards. It's worth watching,,,especially with friends.
