| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinIt’s a testament to Jack Bryant’s lovely script and Kerstin Karlhuber’s thoughtful direction that this controversial concept is handled with such even-handedness and grace. |
| User ReviewWes PThis is a great movie which helps to open minds and understanding. It's about a young man who just comes back from a 'cure' he had to undergo because he's gay. Then he struggles with life and his father -- however he never completely forgets about his ex boyfriend. The story and the whole actors are amazing. The director Kerstin Karlhuber offers us a must-see movie which is so useful nowadays. Lots of finesse and pertinence here. Humor is also present, which is a good thing. Watching this geat movie is highly recommended to avoid hate, misunderstanding and social withdrawal. And it's a perfect demonstration that gay love is not a 'disease' -- it's Love! |

| User ReviewJeanne PA beautiful story told with great sensitivity in a visually stunning setting. Loved it! |
| User ReviewLemon DI totally enjoyed this film. I can't believe that it was only short in 14 days? it has the feel of a big budget film. i like where it happened, as if i can smell the fresh air. i wonder what it will feel like when it rains in that small town. this film reminded me of the novel "a separate peace". pure love, pure youth, it feels like a piece of me has forever lived with those people in that small town. |

| User ReviewKenneth LWhat's right for his eye is wrong for around him! Did not get what I was looking for, but the film was enjoyable for its simpleness. Ordinary characters like you could find them in rural, and they are fighting for their beliefs. Caught between what's right for his own eye, but wrong for others, a teenager named James who is about to admit to a college is tangled up in a romance puzzle. After returning from rehab, now he has to comply with the expectations around him. His father does all he can to help him out, but seems not understood his position very well. In his short period of stay before the college, all the developments he sees are revealed to us. For a B movie, it has a better quality. Impressive in all the level, but not very exciting screenplay. Usually predictable scenes and dialogues. Seems more like would have been a better short film than a feature film. Being a 90 minute stretch, there's nothing to remember the film after a few days its watch. Everything's are already seen in one or the other films. So watching it once would make you no harm, but not a must see, even if you are a big backer of LGBT. Just have a low expectation, that's all. 6/10 |
