In relation to an earlier post mentioning the time of 10.30 being focused on throughout the movie, I'd like to correct this by saying that the clocks all showed the time to be approximately 9.30!!! Unfortunately the significance of this time is vague. Onto the actual movie though, I thought the plot was rather dim and boring with a few one liners thrown in for good measure. Quite a few actors in the film are recognizable from all sources..TV, film etc. The cute boys are aplenty in the film but it's ironic that since this is a movie about the (porn) movie industry, you'd be forgiven for thinking any of them could actually ACT!
OK, so I get to see some big time actors in a movie about low budget gay porn and I learn what the word fluffer means. I am so glad I found out about that. Okay, so now we have a straight man doing gay porn and doing his girl friend and I think the new word is called bisexual. Then we have this burned out has been porn actor kill a guy for some more take on stolen property and he walks away into the wonderful ocean scenery to enjoy a life of having lovely senoritas for snacks. I really wasn't ticked off with this film until the end which just absolutely stunk. The one character is ditched and stuck in Mexico to do what, find his worthless gay porn actor again? The worthless gay porn actor is free to the life of robbing Mexican grocery stores? Why even develop the characters for such a loser ending?
I am surprised at how many people have given 'The Fluffer' a poor rating. I found the film to be very entertaining. The acting was excellent, the writing was excellent, and the sexual tension is incredibly well portrayed. I would say it is not as good as My Own Private Idaho, but it was certainly up there with it in quality. The main character, Sean McGinnis (played by Michael Cunio) was very believable and I would like to see him in more films. The porn star was played very well by Scott Gurney who has since gone on to become the host of a reality TV program (what a shame).This is a definite surprise film I expected b-grade and definitely got a-grade.See it; you will not regret it.
I wanted to see the movie because of an article in a film magazine. It wasn't a highly recommended one by the critic. The storyline is different and I am sure that it could have been a good movie if it was in right hands. Directing and acting were awful!! I had the feeling of watching a movie which was made a bunch of amateurs. Although the movie started promisingly, it got worse and worse. I think this is an unoriginal movie with awkward characters.. I still think that it is worth watching as I haven't seen films subjecting gay porn. Don't keep your expectations high though,then you will be very disappointed. * out of *****
