    saw this movie tonight. At first i thought it was porn, then i thought i was emotionally scared for the rest of my life. I can't decide if it was good or bad, and thinking about it makes me sad and no one died in it but for some reason this movie makes me feel terrible like no movie i have ever watched before. I'm not even sure what to think about it xD

    anyone else seen this movie, it's a gay interest film, looks pretty low budget and british. It was just nothing like anything i had seen but i did feel it was odd in some ways because the budget made it so there where some odd plot holes (the main character is apparently in a a serious gang... that appears to consist of 3 people and him xD).

    So yeah anyone seen it?
    What did you think?
    Am i the only one who feels like this? (like brokeback mountain makes me happy and sad but this movie just makes me get nots in my stomach and border on wanting to cry just thinking about it...)

    i feel it is probably having to do with the violence but idk i just have never felt so strongly about a movie yet i can't decide if it was even that good of a movie xD

    I keep seeing it on Netflix's watch instantly line for Gay and Lesbian, but honestly... after seeing the trailer, it doesn't seem good enough to watch, xD

    Same, with TimxD It is actually in my Netflix's Instant Watch Que, but didn't bother to watch it...
    Well I can't bring myself to watch any gay movies... Only one I have ever watched was Shelter and Soldiers Girl.

    I liked it. I think it was good. Obviously very low budget and all of that. But I think it seemed kinda real. Nothing was glossed over, it was very disturbing, but that's the whole point.

    The love relationship between the two main characters were adorable. And I think Cal's buddy from the gang was gay too, just afraid of coming out. The French guy treated Cal much better anyway, so I'm glad they got together.

    yeah i saw it on netflix so i decided to watch it and while i thought the french guy was much better for him i just was not expecting the sexual tension between the two friends to lead to that final scene.... i was obviously hoping for a much different interaction to take place. I mean at least the girl and him got some level of closure between them but i guess that loose end between him and his gang friend bothered me a lot...
