Beautiful Love

I cannot believe that some "critics" awarded one or two stars to a lovely, enjoyable but ultimately sad film. What do you not like? It was shot on a limited budget with two untried actors who gave their most. It had humour, pathos and eventually sadness. I just don't understand how anyone could be unmoved with a film that exposes all the emotions that so many gay men feel unable to express. It was a lovely film, and I do hope the main actors go on to even greater fame. Thank you Australia for a beautiful film.

This movie started off so clunky that I almost turned it off. But the characters warmed up nicely so I kept watching. I was glad I did. I was starting to think I'd score this 7 or 8 (my 8 is the point where I try to buy my own copy of a movie). I was hoping the scene near the end was a dream. The reality made me so angry that I was thinking my score might be more like a 5. But there was still more film remaining. In the short amount of time remaining, I restored to a solid 7. I am disappointed that in 2013 when this was made, that it was still acceptable for parents of both boys to be so incredibly homophobic. However, I just recently saw the synopsis for a documentary that stated something like 20% of young men in shelters were kicked out of their homes when their sexual orientation did not align with their parents' wishes. So, for a cheap low budget movie, this meant enough to me to write my first review ever here on IMDB, even though I've been a 'member' for many years. I really encourage you to read the review posted as: "An unrefined, but very touching film that packs a punch." bennyjayruss30 November 2013 The single review I read prior to watching the movie did not give me any clue about the intensity of the ending of this movie. But on a fair note, maybe I would not have watched it. Who knows. But the review by bennyjayruss concludes how 'unforgettable' this movie surprisingly really is.

This film tells the story of a timid teenager in school, who meets his first love when a new boy joins the class. They have a beautiful time together, but they are afraid to continue their relationship due to fear of both internal and external forces.

"Monster Pies" starts off very sweet, as the two guys begin their friendship and gradually progress from there. The two actors make their characters very likable, because they radiate of innocence and charm. They look so cute and convincing when they are with each other. As a result, I was unprepared by the ending. It is touching the way it ends, but I wish it ended differently.

I know this won't be much of a review. I'm actually still trying to process the movie in my head.

The storyline was absolutely touching, and it's rare that a film actually leaves me in tears at the end, and this has to be the hardest I've cried after a film. Sure the acting could have been better most times, but everything else made up for it. It was such a job well done.

I really do appreciate the fact that an indie film has had such an impact on me. This is definitely something to add to my favourites to watch again in the future.

Again, I have never been so touched by a movie like I have by this one.

Like anyone who has gone through an experience like this, like me, no no never can totally understand what's going on in this movie. While some scenes seem disjointed, the base of the story made me want to watch this movie multiple times. The horrifying ending of the story unfortunately happens way too often in this world. Without giving away the story I can say that I could not stop crying after seeing this. Even if you're not gay, this is a good story to watch to kind of understand what goes through people's mind and how awful things can get for them.
