| User ReviewLee MStrangely feel good, given that the lead character is dieing of Aids related illnesses... |
| User ReviewThe Renegade CriticWonderful film that showcases Antony Sher's overlooked talent. Both he and Jason Flemyng share great on-screen chemistry. |
| User ReviewLeonardo - Malacay - SAn UK film made in the era under the shadow of AIDS epidemic. Apart from Jason Flemyng's occasionally over the top acting, it was still a positive & optimistic flick in the same genre. |
| User ReviewMs. Southern LIt was good. I might watch it again if it was on tv, but no rent it. Its something good to watch one day. |
| User ReviewAnne STouching, funny and moving but also painfully slow moving at times. I was disappointed in the film, but it is still pretty good. The acting is fine - a really good cast, it's a nicely made film productionwise, just not as involving as I would have liked. |
| User ReviewAshley TMuch like every other British gay film I've ever seen, nothing new here. |
| User ReviewC.J. AThe film neatly covers every gay-drama cliche (ballet, distasteful vanity, random dancing, AIDS angst, creepy sex scenes) in the space of 100 painful minutes. |
