The Thing About Harry

All throughout my childhood i always enjoyed watching romantic comedies with my mother and sister... i am sure you know the ones i'm talking about, from 27 Dresses to The Proposal, i have probably watched them all more times than i can possibly count. although i enjoyed watching them, i would constantly find myself looking and yearning for something that i could enjoy but also connect and relate to in ways all my straight friends did. I always wondered what if there was some LGBT representation, a queer Rom-Com? well i can proudly say i now understand that connect i constantly imagined of seeing on screen. This film was an pleasant surprise that i would recommend watching if you want an queer twist on a classic romantic film. I'm definitely not saying this is the greatest film ever... but i am saying its refreshing and beautiful story. i would certainly watch this film again. great plot and narrative kept me invested and engaged through the entire film.

6/10 - just what you'd expect from a rom-com TV movie - cheesy, cute storylines with some iffy acting (I mean Karamo needs to never "act"again) - but I really didn't care for the time skips throughout the movie

I loved it! The romance has such a natural progression that it was so believable at the point of climax that I got so emotional I cried. So well done!

It's the type of film id describe as warm, fuzzy and sweet, and the little goth punk emo kid in me hates myself for enjoying it. I'm not a fan of romantic comedies because so often they are about as creative as cooperate holiday cards. This one was different partly because the two leads work so well together in camera and the supporting characters actually contribute to the plot line, unlike most romantic comedies where the supporting actors are less supporting are more so talking extras. The one complaint I do have is that it jumps into the future sometimes it's a couple days, and sometimes a couple months and sometimes a year or more. So you hear a bit about their past before the movie starts and they are in college and by the end of the movie they are probably around 30 and could still pass for a 16 year old. I understand some people look young until they go grey but it is just ridiculous that this love story takes over a decade to play out.

I loved this movie. It was so cute and entertaining. All the actors were wonderful and the two lead men had great chemistry. It was nice to see a gay romcom with depth and a positive storyline. I hope it's out on dvd so I can watch it all the time. A must see, feel good movie.
