Both my husband and I saw "The Sensei" in Seattle, WA on 10/24/08. We were touched by the emotion in the film and think the casting was excellent. We appreciated that there were parts of the story that were NOT shown and left to the viewers imagination - that doesn't happen very often anymore. We are bombarded with gore and detail - not in this film. The ending was beautifully done and could have even been a bit longer.We also enjoyed the art in the film - especially "Karen's" art. The only downside to this film was that there were several parts that were just too dark to be able to really see what was going on. Some of the outdoor night scenes were especially tough to decipher.
Congratulations for a job well done. We will watch for it on DVD.

I just finished watching The Sensei starring Mike O'Laskey. It's a great movie with an amazing story! It tugged at all my heartstrings. Growing up in a super religious family, I related to so many emotions the character Mic portrayed. The montage at the end hit me the most. It's the part of the movie that I think Mic felt happiest. He has amazing personality traits I feel we share in common: nurturer, protector, kindred, and accepting. I used to work at a kids summer camp as camp counselor. I loved interacting with them and tried to be the best role model possible.
I found this movie surprisingly good,Some unexpected twists, rich story line, good acting. This is not a martial art movie, this is a good movie set in a martial art background. Its difficult to decide which is better diana lee's acting or her martial arts both are top grade. Louis Mandylor is quite touching with his role. Generally good acting from everyone. The fight scenes are the most realistic i have seen in a very long time. None of the one person beating up 20 people that has become tiresome this days in martial art movies.It also shows the rich character and morale fiber which is what the martial arts is about not just hammering people to a pulp like MMA tries to portray.
Thanks to my Roku, I have been discovering alot of older independent gay films. This movie is so good, minus the 80s Aids paranoia it's a really good story. they tackle some heavy issues very well. So glad I found this movie, putting it my favorites list
This was a great movie, it really depicted the way things were in the 80's. The story was a amazing it is so easy to get lost in the script. The ending really does bring the movie together. It movie gets better every minute, you spend the whole time wanting to know the characters and what is going to happen to them. It is an amazing movie, I can't wait until the movie is out on DVD so I can have my own copy that I can watch whenever I want. It is truly an amazing film, it is defiantly one of the bet movies that I have seen in a long time. I would love for this movie to be show in the theaters in a wide release or at least in a limited release.
