    Really beautiful film a very true to life representation but the thing that kept it from being brilliant for me is that i like a true movie ending and this just didn't have that sadly. However it was a beautiful film with a snapshot into these lives.

    A good film overall with a nice story about being true to yourself at any cost, i liked it, it had a real mainstream feel to it sort of as if it was any mainstream teen film off the shelf with just a gay romance thrown in! very good!
  • Max Riemelt and Hanno Koffler in Free Fall (2013)

    20131h 37mNot Rated
    7.5 (24K)
    A soon-to-be-father policeman falls for a gay fellow officer and his life starts falling apart.
    DirectorStephan LacantStarsHanno KofflerMax RiemeltAttila Borlan
    I'm a person that likes a nice neat (preferably happy) resolution in a film, after all i feel that cinema can be used as an escape. This film however falls into the other category, its a story of discovery but a realistic one, it doesn't appeal to the Disney happy ever after script. I think it shows the realities of life and acceptance of yourself and the struggle that many go through. Although it was a bit slow at points and like i said i would have loved a happy ending, it was still a very good film that gives a real view of a life unfolding while discovering yourself.

    Also i have to give it credit for some amazingly erotic scenes.
  • Date and Switch (2014)

    Two guys who make a pact to lose their virginity before prom find their friendship tested when one of them comes out of the closet.
    DirectorChris NelsonStarsNicholas BraunHunter CopeDakota Johnson
    Fantastic film! I think a lot of older gay films really depict the predominant struggle of their time-the struggle to come out and the struggle to find acceptance as that was the story of their era-but i think this film really speaks volumes about our era, that coming out isn't the predominant struggle (not to say that it isn't still a struggle for many) but that finding out who you are as a person outside of your homosexuality, finding out where you stand takes centre stage. A really lovely film, a coming out story for the new era.

    P.S. I also really loved that they approached it with a new way of thinking, not the conventional male lead falling for the (usually in denial) leading man, or the 'scene' looking guys. Really loved the modern refreshed approach.
  • Benjamin Farmer and Nick Ferrucci in The Falls (2012)

    Chris and RJ reunite five years after coming out to their families and their church as gay men, where the factors that led to their separation are revealed as they mourn the death of their mutual friend Rodney.
    DirectorJon GarciaStarsNick FerrucciBenjamin FarmerHannah Barefoot
    An adequate sequel to an amazing original film, the first 10 minutes of the film are the perfection that the first film set us up to expect however the story line of the rest was slightly lacking. The ending left the possibility for a third film open so i suppose we shall just have to wait and see if dreams come true and a third film will be released.

    As i said before the first 10 minutes were perfection from where we left of in the first film we see that Chris and RJ reunite and go on the road trip that Rodney suggested, its really blissful and everything is perfect, however the story line soon takes a turn when Chris is meant to return home and get things in order before he and RJ can be together forever however it doesn't happen that way and the film plays out the scenario. Personally i think it would be more magical if this had happened and then while Chris is returning to meet RJ there is a tragic accident and is rushed to hospital where his parents will not let RJ see him and the film plays out with Chris and RJ fighting all the obstacles and ending up together in true love but i suppose i will just have to learn to appreciate this film for what it is and hope they can bounce back with a third film as spectacular as the first.
