Summary: Dumb gay holiday film
Review: Aida Turturro could have been nominated for an Oscar for this film. If you are a big Aida Turturro fan, then I won't stop you from checking this movie out. Otherwise, it was just a weak film with a dumb premise. The central character has few redeaming qualities and isn't particularly likeable, so it's hard to imagine why he becomes the hinge of a love triangle. Just because there aren't many gay holiday films doesn't mean we need this one.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: So So
Review: Hated the first half hour or so--I nearly walked out. Most of the audience--it was a gay film festival--laughed out loud though. I grew to hate it less and almost--but not quite--like it by the end. The plot is amzingly predictable and the lead character annoying. But maybe for renting, if your expectations are low, this might not be so bad.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A WONDERFUL DELIGHTFUL FILM!
Review: I disagree with ANYONE that the film is shot quote "Amateurish"...that's pure rubish! THAT IS WHAT MAKES THIS SOOOO APPEALING! NO high tech nonsense! BRIALLANTLY done and well acted by all the characters. Everyone has something that adds a delightful charming appeal to this fun, feel good movie. (Like a nice hot cup of cocoa). I loved it... PERIOD! Makes you really believe that there is a Santa Claus! :) Check it out and you decide!

Summary: 24 Nights is worthy checkin out....
Review: I picked this title up at a San Francisco Video Rental Store not knowing what to expect. I read the synopsis on the box taking a chance 50/50 if its going to be good or not. Im glad that I did take it. Jonathan played by Kevin Isola just wants one thing for christmas, the perfect boyfriend. Jonathan in his early nearing mid 20's lives at home with his older sister played perfectly by Aida Tururro (The Sopranos). Jonathan does come off bitter and acts childish at home and finding the ulltimate BF will remedy his existence in life. Jonathan works at a popular gay bookstore and talking with fellow co-worker James played by Mark Bateman, Mr. Right(Toby played by David Burtka) or what Jonathan thinks is waltzes right in asking for an application for employment at the bookstore. But here's the dent in Jonathan's perfect BF,he's already taken. Toby introduces to the gang at the bookstore his BF Keith played by Steven Mailer. Jonathan wants to end it all at this sudden discovery but he hatches plan B and tries to steal Toby away every which way he can. Along the way, Jonathan's deceit leads him into a whole new direction on what to do cause someone else has fallen for Jonathan. Should he go with Mr. Right (Toby) or Mr. Perfect who has suddenly fallen into his lap?

Summary: Indie okay
Review: I was not sure what to expect when this was recommended to me. I bought it primarily because of price. The story line was good. I think that it could have been more. The character developement was just not complete. There was however a simple beauty that came out in the end. I loved the ending. This is not something for everyone, but a true movie lover will be able to see that it could be considered a diamond in the rough.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A sweet, sweet movie
Review: I'm usually relectant to buy gay-themed movies becaue the production and acting is often so amateurish. This film is definitely an exception. Although the budget is obviously sparse, it doesn't make a difference to this charming film. The acting is first rate - Kevin Isola as Jonathon and Aida Turtorro as his sister are among the standouts in an admirable cast. The story is very sweet and revolves around Jonathon who still believes in Santa. He asks for the perfect boyfriend and he gets - well you have to see the movie

This is a lovely and very romantic film to be enjoyed at any time of year.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: 3 and a half Christmas Stars
Review: Lovely little Christmas film with a gay theme: which I thought was quite different.

It definitely goes in directions you don't think it will and the performances are great. The drunk step mother and the over possesive sister are both amazing and give the film such heart!

Toby from the South aint so special in my eyes, but you really want the main character to end up with him, which rarely happens in films these days. The fact that it got me wanting something to happen, and actually anticipating things "I bet he does this!.." earns it more points.

Not a masterpiece, and it's quite well made (not a flippy camera view in sight) so I would recommend this one. Good to watch with some friends, or cuddled on the couch with your beau.

Merry Christmas!

Summary: A Nice Surprise
Review: Made on a shoestring budget, this one will win you over if you stick with it. This film is charming, often times VERY funny, and really romantic. Definitely deserves a look. And if you're a Christmas freak - all the better!

Summary: Not what you expect
Review: Sometimes we have expectations and impose those on people or situations. But beware the twists that may come. And in this case, it was delightful, but predictable. A cute movie.
