Sell By

I truly enjoyed Sell By. I found it insightful and thought provoking, yet still laugh out loud funny at moments. This film is well worth your time to watch, and may even cause you to think about relationships, gay and heterosexual, in ways you have not before!

This movie is a delightful comic soaper. My only problem is the plot comes across as choppy and not enough info on the secondary characters. (Think Carl) Plus the house in the woods - how did that figure into the story?

The recurring appearance of the ice-cream truck was brilliant!

I guess in order to get a decent rating for a movie involving gay men it has to include half naked chiselled bodies accompanied by that one homophobe character who comes along to shake things up. Haven't we evolved into wanting more for our gay characters and wanting to actually see and relate to a long term relationship between two men. This movie has its faults but deserves more credit than what it seems to be getting. It's nice to see two men in a long term relationship trying to navigate the ups and downs of what they want their future to look like together.

This movie goes absolutely nowhere, acting is mediocre at best. Kate Walsh is completely wasted in this movie. My rating of 5 Stars is even pushing it.

Mild, mindless & harmless way to pass a little time. Actors are all affable. Characters are barley a sketch of actual humans but it is a movie after all...but I don't think we even know what two of the main characters do for a living...yet they're all likably "messed up" in their own ways. Lots of highly photogenic NYC spots. Favorite throwaway line: "OMG The Whitney" as if a NY'er wouldn't know where the Whitney is (you would have to be blind not to see it before you came off the stairs from the Highline - there is an entrance up there)...did make me miss NYC for a hot second. Do a bunch of Wordle (the website not the Times) while you watch it - definitely don't need your whole brain for this. No loose ends and - shocking - everyone is happily paired up at the end.

IDKW they threw in a scene with an alcoholic parent. Is that a last ditch effort to give the character's pain some depth? Did they forget to edit it out? There is no backstory for these characters - there's barely a "now" story, unless you catch a street sign you don't even know where they live. Isn't where you live in NYC as much as your identity as what you do for a living?
