Sincere and Beautiful Film
jromanbaker2 November 2022
This film is a love story in the truest sense, and there are very few of those around at present as good as this. That it deals with a homosexual relationship may mean sadly it may not reach the wide audience it deserves, and that in itself is a sad reflection of our society. It deals with sexual incompatibility and how two young men try to overcome this limitation. I do not want to give away spoilers, but I need to say that although it shows graphic depictions of how they choose to overcome this and be closer to each other it is never totally explicit, and the search for total fulfilment is portrayed with beauty and reticence. Miggy Jimenez plays Tino one of the men, and he is quite simply superb showing with every gesture the inner turmoil he is going through, and he deserves many accolades for his performance. The rest of the cast are excellent, but in my opinion, Jiminez is equal to James Dean and has the same raw ferocity and tenderness. The film lasts nearly two hours, and slowly unfolds and for those with short attention spans be patient. I have never seen a film about the complexities of loving equal to this in a long, long time. Great direction; great film. A well-deserved ten.

A surprisingly good movie
yontomybe16 November 2022
Tino and Chan are a couple looking for a third guy to solve their incompatibility in the bedroom.

I was reluctant to watch this movie considering its controversial theme, but I must admit that the acting and the pace of this film is very engaging. The characters have a natural chemistry and from the beginning you like both the male leads. They are funny and it feels like they know each other already a long time. Once the issue of sexual positions is tackled the mood does shift to a more uncomfortable level, which is very understandable.

The story stays compelling until the last minute and that is definitely because of the great acting and well written script.

A must see.
