Down Low

I can't believe it has such a low rating! Yes, it's not for everyone as any other movie. If you don't get it, it doesn't mean it's a bad.

Honestly, it's such a great and fresh indie take on old school dramedy, very rare genre nowadays.

You may like it or not but you will be definitely surprised but it's all twists. 100% must. At least I have reccomended it to all my friends.

I also wanted to mention that the whole casting from the main characters to not the lead ones is just brilliant.

Thank you so much for this almost 2 hours entertainment that distracted from this tough reality we are facing these days.

Enjoyed the first half of this. A lot of fun, great chemistry, fun performances. Zachary Quinto's turn as a sexually repressed guy goes a little stale. Lukas Gage's character starts to feel a little one-note as well. Judith Light is wonderful as always. And a fun cameo by Simon Rex. Then it takes a darker turn that suddenly feels a lot less funny, if not disturbing. The movie had created a nice reality bubble that was fun to experience. Until, damn, it gets dark. Then suddenly we're out of that bubble into a world that features Audra McDonald, whose fierce realness feels completely at odds with the rest of the movie. I was totally willing to suspend disbelief and go along for the ride for the first half, but it asked too much at the end. From laughter to what the f-- in 90 minutes. Can't really recommend.

A funny, dark comedy that doesn't try to be more than it is. Thoroughly enjoyed it as a gay movie that doesn't try to be groundbreaking and moving etc trying to win awards by showing the immense struggle of being a gay man and coming out.

The relationship between Cameron and Gary is incredibly endearing and provide some proper laughs.

A fresh take one what could be seen as an overdone premise, taking what would generally be a thriller and turning it into a light hearted dark comedy.

Absolutely added to my list of favourites for light watching, and will be giving this another viewing in a few months.

Zachary quinto and Lukas Cage both are amazing in this.

With talent like Zachary Quinto, Lukas Gage, Judith Light, and Audra. McDonald, I figured this film had to have something going for it. Plus the trailer was fun and the plot seemed promising (and the house in the movie's gorgeous). But, no. It's now clear why the movie went direct-to-video.

But why would such talented people agree to perform in such nonsense? Did they not read the script?

Almost every plot development and so much of the dialogue thumbs its nose at credibility. Totally cringe.

It's too bad. There are a few funny moment and snappy lines-even a few decent dramatic moments. And the cast has good chemistry.

Really, a talented screenwriter needed to extract the good stuff from this mess and totally rewrite it. And a much smarter director needed to take control. There really is some potential buried in there somewhere.

This is more of the type of newish humor that needs to be written. Like "Bros" it is a refreshing and more normal way to portray gay people in cinema.

Very clever writing good jokes, funny scenarios and quippy scenes without being too kitschy.

Hopefully this does well and they keep making more dark/black comedies like this.

Next I want to see a gay version of a satire Christopher Guest type movie, that would be cool.

Then they could do a murder mystery type, then a gay themed sci-fi one.

Not perfect, and that's ok, nothing in life, let alone cinema is a 10/10, just like no person is a 10.
