Summary: Kiss Me Billy!
Review: BILLY'S....is a great movie, romantic movie, and funny movie. It is not just about gay relationships, it's about love in general and the whole "is he, isn't he" situations that abound in all of our lives. This movie will make you laugh and cry and is great to watch with friends. If the end of the movie doesn't make your heart hurt, I don't know what will. Sean Hayes is charming and Brad Rowe is sexual and makes you want him! GET THIS MOVIE!!

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: "Billie's Hollywood Screen Kiss" is a delightful little film
Review: ...it is visually delightful...and very middle of the road for a gay themed film. A friend of mine says she is going to show it to her thirteen year old daughter...because the people treat each other really rather nicely. And that is the thing.. it is a funny little film about people who are attracted to the wrong people, but nothing really bad happens...everyone kind of learns something without being hurt. And it has location shots of Catalina, and the beaches north of Malibu. I like this film a lot...and watch it from time to time to remind myself that it is a rich wonderful world out there with many kinds of delightful people in it. ALL the actors are good--SEAN HAYES is at his early, understated best (Billy is out, but NOT as far out as his "Will and Grace" character). The commentary is pleasant and quirky---mostly about making a film on a small budget. Well...I certainly hope that some more films get made in THIS price range...this one is a humdinger!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the gay version of "SuperStar"!! Great Movie!!
Review: This movie is all about "kissing" and finding a partner. Isn't this like "SuperStar"??

I can relate to Billy (Sean P Hayes), and I suppose all the gay people do. ALL THE GUYS want "Hollywood Kiss" with beautiful, attractive guy, like Gabriel in this movie.

It is more than just a comedy. A Must-See for gay people!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Me first gay film...
Review: This was the first gay film I'd ever seen...it just happened to be on HBO right after I "came out," and I watched it to see what gay life is all about. It will always be special to me as the first non-porn gay film I've seen, but I'd say for sure it's not a gay-life guide. It is fun though. Unfortunately, the last quarter of the film degenerates into a silly gidget-like outing to Catalina, but the last few scenes are well worth watching it through to the end. Sean Hayes is just adorable with the goatee in the film, and plays a great gay without the "flaming-queen" shtick he does Jack in Will & Grace with.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I wish my life was so pleasant ...
Review: I can not really say much more about this movie but Billy & Gabriel were GREAT! A real life situation for a NORMAL gay life. Nothing to glaring. I get a warm fuzzy feeling every time I see this movie and have seen it at least five times. I will watch it again as well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WONDERFUL GAY FILM
Review: This story revolves around the friendship of two guys in LA, USA. The story evolves to a mutual affection and the possibility of some thing more. Sean P. Hayes from Will and Grace stars in this movie and must admit that his acting skills are womderful. Sean does not come across as an ancy 90's queen, but the normal guy that just happens to be gay.

It is refreshing to see a movie that does not include the topic of AIDS and promicquous sex of the gay population.

In stead this movie reveals the desire of one person to find the right individual.

The soundtrack by Petula Clark is magic and is an exceptional choice for a wonderful movie. The scenary and chioce of locations if gorgeous.

A movie that I would recommend to the whole family.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Different Kind of L.A. Story
Review: A touching, funny, and sad story about a young photographer ("Will & Grace" star Sean P. Hayes) and the object of his desire (Brad Rowe), "Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss," is an impressive feature-film debut for director O'Haver. Set in Los Angeles (and concluding on Santa Catalina island) Billy's infatuation with coffee-serving Gabriel allows the viewer to grasp the idea of an ideal friendship in the gay 90's. Gabriel's sexual ambiguity disturbs Billy's so called "gaydar" that Billy sets up a series of photographs inspired by classic films like "From Here to Eternity" to see whether-or-not Gabriel is gay.

The film serves a visionary eye palette of colors that gives the film a catchy look. Utilizing methods to watch Nicholas Ray used in "Rebel Without A Cause," and what Pedro Almodovar utilized in "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown," (both films used a technicolor red hue to give the protagonist a unique look) O'Haver successfully incorporates great color schemes and excellent lighting.

The film has many sad points especially when Billy tells Gabriel the significance of his Polaroid and especially the heartbreaking ending (reminscent of the ending of "Splendor in the Grass"). I was fascinated my the creative use of the Polaroids in the telling of the story.

Overall, both characters are cute, the supporting characters are excellent, and the film's script is an original escape from today's unoriginal recycled film scripts. An excellent film for all, regardless of someone's sexual orientation.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie
Review: This is one of my favorite movie of 1998. The idea is brilliant and the two main characters are so cute & touching. They made my heart melt.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TOUCHING WAKE-UPPER
Review: a modern gay tale mixing romance with reality---quite a tragedy. yanks you out of your dream with a mighty slap about living gay in the 90s. actors were great and all good looking---adds gloss to the surreal inspirations, but also poses the reality of being human and gay. ends with high hopes, but also tugs a sentimental string.
