Summary: Gritty. Real. Like it is.
Review: This is not your typical gender-meets-gender story. If you're looking for utopian characters, gorgeous scenery and excruciatingly snappy dialog (a la "Friends"), you definitely won't find it here. But the main characters are so genuinely interesting (and in Craig and Matt's case, likeable in spite of their flaws) I still found this film vastly satisfying.

My only real complaint is that the story ends too quickly. Not that the film itself is too short, but as soon as both lead characters have made life-changing decisions we're given film credits.

A note of caution: Anyone who's adverse to no-holds-barred, bare knuckle fighting should steer clear of this film. After several viewings the fight sequences still make me cringe.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sexier Beautiful Thing
Review: This movie is a good film. At it's heart you have a blue collar guy and his boyfriend, a club running gay Londoner. Their rocky relationship is the focus of the entire movie... Very well done.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprising Intriguing
Review: This movie raises the bar on Gay Cinema! The Talented cast gives an insight rarely seen in Gay themed movies; coming to terms with ones emotions and desires. A great realization drama on homosexuality, society, actions and reactions. I bought this movie and watched it twice within the first week!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Unexpected
Review: This movie was so unexpected. I thought this movie would be just another stereotypical gay movie, wrong! it is fresh different and very entertaining with exceptional performances by both the lead character and cast. Paul Oremland did a remarkable job. Great performance by Roger Daltry. Another keeper.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Like it is
Review: This movie was very enjoyable. It did a good job in portraying how two men from different lifestyles can come together in a relationship. We're privy to the ups and downs of dealing with the implications of differing social backgrounds in this film. The charecters, even the background charecters, were fairly easy to identify with and I'd have given the film a higher rating but I didn't like the shot they used for the very end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't listen to Paula Numbchick - check this out!
Review: This was a great flick - sensitive, fast-paced and downright fun to watch. Despite its minor faults, I enjoyed it from b to e...Steve Bell, though not a seasoned actor, plays a character that is genuine and appealing, and Roger Daltry plays to the hilt the role of a disgusting gay old rake - predatory, campy and nasty. His performance alone was worth the price of admission; throw in the fine scene from the beached rowboat, and I could watch this one daily at least from now til mayday...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nice Love Story
Review: This was an amazing movie, although there is alot of Drugs and Alcohol, the group of us truly enjoyed it. You really were taken in by the Love growing between the two (Matt & Craig) and hated everyone else for getting in the middle of them. In the end, as in any good movie... it has a happy ending. I really hope there is a sequel to this one! You will definetely enjoy this movie. Jefe

p.s. We all Hated Paula ( or whatever her name was ) !

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: Very entertaining movie about a street brawler and a music producer. Roger Daltrey is particularly good as the older, campy music impresario who loves to stir things up!

Expect some very hot and sexy scenes with the leads too!
