Featured reviews
The Invisible Thread is a nice little treat for those who love sweet familial stories. The film actually offers nothing new. All is been done before. However, the tweak on the details gave a fresh breath of air to the tired formula, hence it's still fun to watch. Practically harmless and heartwarming.
The good bad and indifferent occurs in any family regardless of sexual orientation and this movie captures the different feelings and emotions tied to love, regret, shame, hurt and happiness quite well. The story is influenced by a country's repressive laws against homosexuals.
I totally disagree with whoever wrote that this movie does not serve gay couples. Thousands of heterosexual and homosexual people have written about how they identified with this film. The protagonists with all their flaws and mistakes are as human and imperfect as everyone else. The comment seems really obtuse to me because whoever wrote it did not understand that the meaning of the film is to celebrate the right to exist of this type of families starting from their failure. You don't have to be perfect to be accepted! And yes, many of the filmmakers in this movie are openly gay and lgbt + rights activists.
This was a very pleasant surprise. It's a nice change to have a film with gay characters that isn't about coming out. It's a serious film with a tremendous amount of comedy - bordering on farce. But has something to say. The acting is very well done. Just a very enjoying movie to watch.
Just a fun easy movie to watch. A great story told very heartfelt. The editing from the story flow to the background music very put together. And I thought the acting was really good by each character. Especially the leads. So don't over think it or analyze it. Just watch a nice little family drama.
