I have watched a huge amount of gay themed movies over 4 decades and this has got to be one the most boring movies of all time. I wish I had never watched it and could get my time back.

The reactions of the main character are always on some kind of 10 second delay. Reactions of the main character just don't feel real at all. Near the 20 minute mark, just before they are about to have sex for the first time, he says would you like a drink or smoke some weed? Adam (Andrew Scott) has a smoke and then Harry (Paul Mescal) just goes straight into wanting sex without having a smoke as well. This would never happen in real life if you enjoyed smoking weed, which Harry said he liked to do. At this point I was totally taken out of the movie and knew it wasn't going to improve whatsoever.

This movie feels like what would happen if you overdosed on Xanax each day for an entire year, and never came up for air. Why are so many people raving about this boring movie??? Dam well mystifying?

Sublime is one of my favourite independent films of 2022. All the elements of great movie making, magically come together in this very realistic coming of age film from Argentina.

The first thing I appreciated about this film (compared to similar North American films), is that the actors look like the age they are playing. All the young actors that make up the majority of the cast, were extremely believable and relatable. The lead actor Martin Miller who plays "Manu", was completely in the moment from beginning to end. He is a likeable character, that held the story together.

The script was perfect and the use of dreams to communicate the subconscious, was very well down.

I liked everything about this movie, but my absolute favourite part was the music. Most of the main characters were playing live music throughout the entire film. Whoever did the Audio for this film, did a masterful job.

The final thing I will say, is that this is a movie that anyone can watch. The lead character maybe gay, but it is not what I would call a typical "Gay" movie. I would say it is actually a film about discovering real love for another person, who you have been close to for a long time.

I hope this film gets released on Blu-ray disc and not only DVD. Such a high quality film deserves to get a Blu-ray disc release!!!
