Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Lust or Love?
Review: A movie that reveals the "coming undone" (out) of a young man and his first experience in a gay relationship. It was hard to understand some of the dialouge but overall it was a pretty good movie with a few "shots" if you know what I mean. Not as many as I would like though.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cute Movie
Review: This movie was great. Even though it is in sub-titles, it had a cute story and it had cute boys!!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The cover is so misleading
Review: The cover for this movie makes you feel as if you are finally in a for great, happy, easy going gay film. Instead, it is one of the most disturbing gay films ever with nothing but depression and repressed gay feelings. I don't recommend this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: So French it's delightful...
Review: Decidedly not for those seeking a film where every nuance is spoon fed to the viewer. The story, ever so French, demands you engage with it to follow the many circumvolutions love creates between two male egos when --nationality not being important here-- unresolved issues and expectations collide. Very sensual with many surprising twists. To be watched with a glass of wine, cheese and a baguette for the best effect. Santé!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sad and Sexy
Review: I just saw this movie last night and I really can't stop thinking about it. You learn so much about the characters, yet you are left to figure out much for yourself. Its a sad, moving coming of age story.

There are some very intimate scenes which are graphically portrayed, sometimes tastefully, other times gratuitously. The love evolving between the guys was really a struggle for Mathieu, but it seems Cédric had no problem with this relationship, hence the problem that we are left to deal with.

I really recommend this movie, it is a wonderful coming of age story. I'm sorry that it got such a poor ratings from the critics. Overall, a European coming of age isn't that much different from an American coming of age story - minus the subtitles.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: What Were You Thinking?
Review: I can't believe that anyone would rate this movie 4 or more stars. It was almost horrible! The story is frustrating and confusing, the acting is very unskilled, and the editing is dull. For the sweetness of the movie, I give it two stars, plus a bonus star for it's eroticism and nudity. Yes, watch this movie, but don't expect a 4 star experience.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Hmm.. not that great.
Review: Despite kudos on the cover and on various gay websites promoting this movie, I couldn't see the big deal. I'm definitely not averse to foreign-language films (films like Cinema Paradiso etc transcend language barriers) but this one definitely loses something in the translation.

I'm not quite sure what the plot of the movie was, other than a guy who lives in Paris but goes to the coast to spend the summer with his mother who I assumed was ill but is apparently just depressed after having a miscarriage.

The guys in the film are definitely cute, but as with men in general, good looks only keep your attention so long if there is no substance to back it up. I turned the movie off half-way through as I just couldn't understand what was going on and why I should care about it. I finished it a couple days later and was still unsatisfied.

Stick to other films like "Trick" and "Big Eden" if you want good date movies. :)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: End of Summer
Review: First love, loss and healing surround a boy's discovery of his unique identity outside familial quandaries and limitations. Elkaïm's performance as Mathieu is astoundingly heartfelt and articulate in portraying this young man's emergence from sheltered apathy into life's passion and unpredictable temperament.

Unlike other movies of this genre, the controversy surrounding the boys' orientation and relationship serve to add a compelling depth to the plot, rather than a cliché anecdote.

With the mood shifting throughout as the viewer becomes more aquainted with the boys' feelings toward one another, one also can sense the resistance among the other characters to this level of intimacy between young men. The actors deliver such genuine connection between these characters, the innocence of such a love is self-evident.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I want my money back!!!
Review: ...To tell you the truth I hated this movie, poor light, not good acting, it did't have a good script. My friends and I didn't like it. We were expecting a lot from this movie and we were very dissapointed. If I wasn't that dissapointed I wouldn't be writting this. I just don't want more dissapointed people in the world. It is enough wit me!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: breath taking splendor
Review: I watched this movie last night. About 3 hours after watching it I was still bewildered by it. I sat down and make a list of the things I didnt udnerstand or were missing and eventaully realized that they were missing to underscore the point of the movie.

I cannot say how much I am impressed by this film. If you have ever been in love, deeply in love, and lived to talk about it you will identify with this film.
