AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
CarrieHarris I was under the assumption that Yanks had cornered the market on celluloid fluff. Have I ever so rarely caught a flick that expressed any type of reality beyond it's typical title. Unfortunately for those of us whose curiosities are captured by that all inclusive punchline, I leased this DVD. The writer slams you in face with his pensive ideals, just as he invokes his bosom buddies to accept the pain he can't climb over. Quite a task for a two hour flick. I was amused by the trysts, clever, however, the Director slash writer clogged the palate with personal ops. Overall, the show was straight and narrow yet searching for a more threatening ending. Not that suicide isn't dangerous, I truly felt, that a gun...or a speeding car at a cliff might of been more intense. The lead actors were true, as were the lead actresses. All in all, the flick was pseudo good.
ciaob I have a very serious issues with writers that bring their problems to the silver screen. Not only have you invaded the privacy of real persons that are out there to be examined on a public, worldwide basis, but those same persons are virtually held captive in the celluloid world of unchanging expectations. Whence an individual prospects for a 'True' story to view, and that prospector is a friend of a friend of a character depicted in the story, that charatcer's private relationship is exposed for everyone to chew. Somehow, the film delivered a painful reality, for those of us which have peers that have taken their lives. A guilt...that never rests.
oscarw-3 There's are less few movies make today, that touch me anymore like life touch me. I have a very tough expectation for stories and all the money that they make and all they are is special effects and big stars that just work on them for the money. When i get this movie at the video store, i get it because it was based on a true happening and I wanted to see what Americans do at their reunion partys. It start out with the past pictures and what they do and then the movie begins. I enjoyed it because it make me think of my friends growing up. I think it important to remember who make who you are today, and that is the main storyline. Never forget you friends. Love them. Love you families. Never forget anytime in you life, if you want to be a good person with a good heart. Ciao.
mzoumas I usually don't enjoy dramatic romance types of shows...but...this one was very special. The words, the relationships were absolutely on the money with me. It is sometimes hard to admit you have said and done the same thing, because we all want to be perfect. Jim Fitzpatrick is a very talented young man. And I say this with great conviction because I saw the Two Act Play, which he also wrote, produced and directed called 'Ten Year,' which this film is based on. And it is almost word for word, on the money with the play. By the end of the second act, people around me were sobbing. Talk about association of the heart. It doesn't get any better than this for a true story. Corby Timbrook, the drug addict was very compelling to watch. Almost sickening at a few points, because of my younger life when I dealt with my demons, the very same way. Thank God for friends. Bravo to you all.
