A must see! It's true that it is sweet and funny but also very real and tough. It shows us how loneliness can lead us to make terrible mistakes.

I don't think that this film is full of clichés, on the contrary, it shows us the way things could happen in our nowadays, giving us the opportunity of thinking about the problems we could find in a society more complex and connected than ever.

At the same time, I enjoyed the sense of humor of some of the characters and the way they live their friendship. This friendship could be closer to a extended family concept.

Although the synopsis describes this film as being about a gay man's best girlfriend getting pregnant with his baby, the main plot actually revolves around a lurid and obsessive relationship with a handsome stranger online. This film runs at an easy pace, and although definitely mostly centered around the main protagonist (who's very easy on the eyes, which helps) it also gives sufficient scope to the events happening to the friends around him. All their stories are nicely tied in.

Although she doesn't appear on the list of actors on this film's IMDb page, the famous Spanish actress, Carmen Maura, makes a cameo in it. She is particularly known to an international audience for her roles in Pedro Almodovar movies. She definitely adds something very special.

Well written, realistic view of the modern gay male experience, featuring the almost always present hetero-female friends. Some "straight" men do not want to understand or take responsibility for the actions, and that is perfectly normal, too. The actors excel in their roles and the film moves along at a good pace. Kudos for a very well made movie.

It reminded me of Madonna's classic, "Sobrou Pra Você", with due proportions, of course, because here the humor and drama fell far short, but we delighted in a light, unpretentious and militant film, beautiful and pleasant ... Charismatic characters, script simple, yet functional and attractive ...

I don't think this is "another gay movie". What happens in this story might happen to any of us, no matter who you are or who you sleep with. It's all about lies, trust, loneliness, fears and love.... That's life... real life ... Hard and sad or happy life...

In my opinion, the characters in the film faithfully reflect a group of friends with their virtues and flaws. They are kind, affectionate, selfish, immature characters ... real as life itself.

Anyone over 30 will be reflected in many situations and if you have not done so, you are about to do so.

If this movie does not excite you ... is that nothing will ....
