Summary: ok
Review: This movie definetly had a different plot then all the other gay films out there. A Gay man takes revenge on what the straights have been doing to him.. The scene is shocking and his friends plead with him but he doesn't stop and you feel sorry for him and the abused .. then he disappears. What happens next ? Go and see for yourself.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: who cares?
Review: This movie touched on so many topics. It really hit home. This movie shows that when life serves you lemons, it is truly your friends who give you the strength to keep you going.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MADE IN AMERICA
Review: What a pleasant surprise! Honestly, I have had the feeling for many years that a move like "Relax, It's just Sex" would never be made here in America. This movie is about a group of very intriguing good friends comprising of both gay and straight characters where, for once being gay is NOT the problem. It is not a "coming out" or a "is he or is she gay?" film; everyone is very comfortable with his or her sexuality to the point that they are able to be very supportive of each other no matter what is going on in a particular person's life at any particular moment.

There are many very funny moments intermingled with "real life" serious situations, which are dealt with--including love, HIV infection, commitments, a miss-carriage, and a "gay bashing". The "gay bashing" for me, really hit home. For once, in this movie, the "victim" had opportunity to get immediate revenge and did so to the shock and horror of his friends who had problems dealing with his anger and his execution of revenge on one of the bashers. (In all honestly if given the opportunity to get revenge on a "gay bashing" punk, I think that I would take advantage of that opportunity as the character, in the film, did!)

All of the actors in the film are great with Jennifer Tilly giving, to me, an Oscar winning performance-she's hysterically funny at one moment and "heart breaking" the next moment. I just wish I had a group of friends as portrayed in this movie.

If you are into good films, buy this DVD

Summary: Not what you'd expect.
Review: When I began watching Relax... It's just sex!, I expected the same useless, witty tripe that is constantly being peddled to homosexuals. You know the type: Something where everyone is happy, except a single scene of discrimination, (which you can't even take seriously because the characters are so shallow), and then everyone learns a lesson. This, however, was not what I found. The scene of discrimination is filled with characters you do care about, and it doesn't pull any punches. The characters arn't a group of homosexual and heterosexual martyrs, they are well rounded and fierce. In addition, this movie is one of the most realisticly romantic I've ever watched. I've been watching "straight" romantic comedies for years, and have never experienced a scene as heartfelt as the embrace between the lesbian couple at the end. A must see for all those who love and are loved.
