Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by mike aVery poignant and well portrayed film that deals with a point in time at which gay people were still being beaten up, but were no longer beating themselves up. The two main protagonists were well rounded characters that avoided most of the usual stereotypes. Well worth watching as a piece of social history ( and to see Robbie Coltrane in a frock!)
User Review - 10/10 by Colin FThis is my all-time favourite movie; it's British and I can relate to it on five different levels. Not an easy film to find nowadays, but if you DO come across it, don't ignore it. Two Liverpudlian boys, each with his own problems witness a murder and go on the run from the hit-man. They tag along with an ageing Opera singer who takes them to Brighton. As payment for this deed the opera singer takes the body of Michael who when in Liverpool was "on the rent" and innocent and homely Eddie discovers a performing dolphin in "Wonderland" (otherwise known as the Brighton Sea Life Centre) who he wants to rescue and set free. In the midst of all this mundane activity, the killer suddenly turns up, having traced the pair to the South Coast. Robbie Coltrane is brilliant as Annabel; an incredibly unusual role for him but realised beautifully. The commercial soundtrack is wonderful, and there are some surreal dream sequences that make perfect sense by the end of the film. Be warned, you cannot fail but to be deeply moved by the end and you will need a huge box of Kleenex tissues. I have seen this film more times than I would freely admit and have cried floods of tears EVERY time.
User Review - 10/10 by Brian KA STRANGE YET MIND NUMBING BRIT FLICK ALL THE 80S SUMMED UP SURREAL ENDING
User Review - 8/10 by Vicky PWent to see this in the Aaben in Hulme - we had to find a seat that was not ripped out (well it was 1988 and Hulme was full of smack heads) anyway we dodged the needles and had a jolly time. Predicatable but great for a fellow gay teenager (at the time!!)
User Review - 6/10 by Simon EAn odd little film but entertainingly odd, quite clunky in places though. The highlight is definitely Robbie Coltraine in drag and the club scenes are packed full of NewRo nostalgia.
