Shoulder Dance

So many fake 10 stars reviews out here! Let me get this straight, as ironic as it sounds, cause this is a gay movie. This drama romance comedy revolves around a man child who couldn't got over childhood crush, that it made him so afraid of commitment with his current boyfriend. And Matt Dallas is the one playing that character. Poor guy. Can't they give him a more sophisticated character, that isn't so vapid? That being said, the movie itself isn't so bad. It's still watchable.

There's only one moral lesson that I want to highlight here : Kids, don't do drugs! Movies made it sound so fun and so light like doing drugs isn't anything big. Well, let me tell you something real without being preachy. Drugs are destructive for your brain! You won't feel the side effects right away. But in your future days, doctors will tell you how those cursed things have eaten away at your brain cells. And regret, always comes too late. So you might wanna follow Josh's footsteps in this movie. Cause he's a smart boy, he knows what's bad for him. And won't let anything pressure him into doing whatever he doesn't wanna do.

Saw this movie at a film festival and we soon as it was available on DVD we bought it! Can't get enough of the stellar cast and story line of the characters.

I loved the amalgamation of the beautiful camera shots, talented cast, and story line that was equal parts, sexy, funny, and endearing. By the end of the movie, you'll identify with one of the characters struggles, as well as yearn to live in the dreamy beach house. It's not at all a thriller, but still leaves you holding your breath, and biting your nails at certain points. The whole production feels very reminiscent of Tom Ford's movies to me. Every scene, sound, movement, and lighting change is a vibe. This is a newer director for me, but after watching The Shoulder Dance, I want to check out more of Jay Arnold's films. Go watch! This was the perfect move to laugh, cry, and think fondly of yesterday. :)

Sexy beautiful story about relationships and healing, and new paths forward. The writing and directing are excellent! Looking forward to a sequel or perhaps a prequel of this wonderful story. Lots of curiosity around the past and how these characters developed and how they could be developed for another film very nicely done. It would be especially interesting to see how the female character lead got her start and how she evolved into the first thing that she is in the film. It would also be interesting to see the event that split Ira and Roger apart and caused this very long pause in their relationship, would love to see more from Director Jay Arnold .

I feel so bad for Matt Dallas. He's a great actor in a terrible movie. I could see how uncomfortable he was in this film alongside bad actors, bad director, bad script and story, bad editing, bad photography. Matt Dallas was on a hit TV show and now casting him in an amateur film production. It is so sad. I would like to be a famous producer to cast him in productions of his level and with A-list actors. It was very painful to watch this movie. I had to fast forward to get to the really point of the movie but there was none. I hurt to see Matt Dallas struggling to do his best to save this movie. When his boyfriend got naked in front of him the funny moment was that Matt didn't even look down 😂😂. I think in his mind was "Blue, don't get mad at me. It is just a movie so we can pay our chicken coop. " 😂😂😂

We find out right at the start that josh and ira do not have an equal relationship. Ira is a busy, big shot agent, and makes decisions without consulting josh. And seems to be ashamed of josh's work... whatever that is. When a straight friend comes to visit, he's very touchy feely, even in front of his girlfriend. It's a bit like the big chill. All those people coming together in one spot, you just know something is going to happen! This one starts kind of slow, but then things start to happen about halfway through. The boys start doing things they claim they never do. And of course, one thing leads to another. It's really well done ! Recommend this one! Written and directed by jay arnold.
