Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Console best movie i've ever seen.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
css-89951 A film for the ages, with two amazing and gritty performances by Josh O'Connor and Alec Secareanu.
jam_92-1 I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Definitely worth a watch. It grips you from the start and the symbolism and the development of the characters is well written and acted
ohlabtechguy This is similar to Brokeback Mountain in a few ways. The principle characters are engaged in similar farming/ranching; they are masculine and they fall in love with one another while working together under the wide open sky. The primary differences are in time period, ending and cinematography. The scenes of farm life in GOC are drab, bleak and depressing; whereas, in BM, the scenes are majestic, colorful and uplifting. The ending in BM is sad and the one in GOC is happy. The time period is current in GOC and it is assumed there is less pressure on these sheep blokes to be straight and married. Overall, I liked the picture, but it was hard to understand the dialogue unless they were shouting. The Romanian actor had a thick accent and the Irish actor likewise had a tricky dialect to decipher. In BM, I found it implausible that two masculine, closeted, married gay men would have maintained a long distance affair for 20 years. It felt contrived to set up the emotion ending. In this movie, I found the relationship and ending to be more believable.
asanc-45484 Hardly ever feel the need to rate a movie. But this one was a must.
