Shoulder Dance

This well produced and directed movie entertains in a big way....the story not only allowed me to reminisce about my party days (which was one of my happiest chapters of my life), but tells a compelling story of childhood friends.

"Love, Laughter, and Friendship shine in this heartwarming film that beautifully explores the deep bond between two friends. The story not only celebrates the joy of self-discovery, but also highlights the enduring power of genuine connections. With stellar performances and a touching narrative, this movie is a testament to the universal themes of love and acceptance that resonate beyond boundaries."

A refreshingly real and well written movie, perfectly casted. It's not surprising this movie is getting the attention it deserves. Wonderful film that shouldn't be missed.

Are there really people who can watch this silly spectacle for 100 agonising minutes? And then give it ten points? The director must have some good friends.

I'm sick of watching such pumped-up, rich American snobs babbling to themselves.

What a load of rubbish. Couldn't make it through half of the movie. A film to delete and forget immediately. I would have walked out of the cinema.

I loved the amalgamation of the beautiful camera shots, talented cast, and story line that was equal parts, sexy, funny, and endearing. By the end of the movie, you'll identify with one of the characters struggles, as well as yearn to live in the dreamy beach house. It's not at all a thriller, but still leaves you holding your breath, and bitting your nails at certain points. The whole production feels very reminiscent of Tom Ford's movies to me. Every scene, sound, movement, and lighting change is a vibe. This is a newer director for me, but after watching The Shoulder Dance, I want to check out more of Jay Arnold's films. Go watch! This was the perfect move to laugh, cry, and think fondly of yesterday. :)

Sexy beautiful story about relationships and healing, and new paths forward. The writing and directing are excellent! Looking forward to a sequel or perhaps a prequel of this wonderful story. Lots of curiosity around the past and how these characters developed and how they could be developed for another film very nicely done. It would be especially interesting to see how the female character lead got her start and how she evolved into the first thing that she is in the film. It would also be interesting to see the event that split Ira and Roger apart and caused this very long pause in their relationship, would love to see more from Director Jay Arnold .

I watched this for ages trying to recall where I'd seen Rick Cosnett before then I remembered he was Grant Gustin's love rival in "The Flash". Well, here he is more in the "flesh" as he turns up on the doorstep of his long estranged school friend "Ira" (Matt Dallas) with his lively girlfriend "Lilly" (Maggie Geha). Up until now, "Ira" has lived quite happily with boyfriend "Josh" (Taylor Frey) but is reluctant to commit to anything more formal. Now, with their unexpected houseguests, the booze starts to flow, the weed gives way to the molly and boundaries start to blur as truths start to rear their ugly heads. At times there's quite an engaging chemistry between Dallas and Cosnett, but the unfolding scenario is a little too contrived and the storyline just starts off weakly before going nowhere fast as the predictability lives up to our limited - and disappointing - expectations at the conclusion. It's sad that it has to reinforce some rather fickle stereotypes along the way, too and in the end it offers little more than an excuse to watch some daytime eye-candy take part in something that looks like it has been sloppily edited for ad breaks. Most of it is filmed in an haze and there's simply nothing new here, sorry.
