I hardly ever write reviews on movies but this takes the cake. It's hard to come across very good gay independent movies in general. I couldn't take my eyes off this train wreck of a movie. Between the acting and horrible dialogue, I found myself talking aloud at the atrocity. Who comes up with this crap!?
What do you get when you mix horrible acting, bad editing, even worse writing and a wafer thin premise with minstrel-show style racist caricatures? The answer is something along the lines of "a horrible travesty of an abomination which should be avoided at all costs. Seriously; stare into the sun for 4 hours and clean your ears out with a power-drill before you are ever forced to sit through this insanely distasteful tribute to bad cinema. There is absolutely no reason anyone should or would want to watch this.
The actors are sexy, especially Chris, but he doesn't look at all like he does in the movie. He has much longer hair in real life and a hairy chest that was bare in the movie. Curious as to why they shaved it.His personality was sexy in the movie, don't know about his real life personality.
(I'm going to say this review contains mild Spoilers but little not already mentioned or strongly alluded to in the opening description)This movie had such potential but ultimately made little sense. Even the brief description is wrong. John (the playboy) was JACK's boyhood crush not vice versa. The characters were wildly inconsistent at times, at least in part, to be humorous. But mostly it is just annoying and didn't make sense. For example, the father fires John from the family company, cuts him out of everything completely and but by movie's end all is well. They never showed how this transition came about. It was never explained why Jack had a crush on John for TWENTY years. Or whether he had any boyfriends in the meantime or why he would wait so long. Why did John fall madly in love with Jack after almost ignoring him 20 years? No answers in this film. Most unfortunate - why did they cast the gorgeous hunk "Paul" only to give him such a small part? Would have loved to see him in a Speedo swimsuit.
