Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Alasdair Orr Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

themaskedvixen After being an addict to IMDb forever I finally got an account when I read what other people thought of this movie.You basically have to be on a lot of drugs to think this movie is anything but the worst movie you've ever seen.It's not a gay movie, it's not a raver movie, it's a piece of crap.The story line is ridiculous, the acting is on par with a high school play, I can't even think of one good thing to say about this movie.My best friend and I watched it and within 10 minutes (he's gay we're both ex-ravers so the "target audience" of this movie was well represented) and within ten minutes we were going to turn it off but left it on hoping it would get better. It didn't

desperateliving I was made giddy watching this film, and I think the more tuned into this specific type of camp you are the more you'll enjoy it. The movie is certainly not for everyone, and like an early John Waters movie it relies quite heavily on gross-outs -- like intestine-eating and rape with a dildo -- for its effect. A lot of the acting teeters on the edge of self-mockery. (Though I think the main over-the-top performance of the Spanky O'Niel character, reminiscent of Cathy Moriarty in "Casper," is deliciously psychotic.) However, unlike a Waters movie there isn't a lot of political subversion in the film -- unless a character who wants to sleep with 2,000 men is meant to be taken as a jab at gay promiscuity. The soundtrack is pretty entertaining, some of the cinematography is quite striking, and I liked the way it incorporated the Great Flood of Winnipeg into its storyline. 7/10

paddedproductions I can't express into words how much I love this unique piece of gay film making. It's the kind of film that makes me smile through every line and every action. A handsome cast and a romantic story. There is one bit of shock cinema, but it doesn't take away from the experience for myself. I know others will gasp.I saw this film the summer of 2001 and I just got it on DVD...It's even better the second time, only because it's filled with creative eye candy and suberb shooting...Did I mention I loved this film?

pantspie what utter and complete garbage this hideous film was. i don't know when "subversive" officially became synonymous with "aimlessly ambling, pointless mess which attempts to shock in the most embarrassing and obvious ways," but if it has, then call this subversive, i guess. watching the director's pathetic attempts to provoke the audience - using no more sophisticated tactics than your average episode of 'jackass' - was truly painful. nice cinematography, though.
