First off, people need to understand that this was a television series that lasted two seasons before being canceled and this movie was basically a condensed season 3 to give the show and the viewers closure as it was canceled at a place where absolutely nothing was resolved. It really pays to watch the series before watching this movie. The reason I felt like leaving a review this time around was after seeing every episode 3 times and this movie 3 times (several years in between each time) it struck me that even though all the actors and their performances are fantastic I feel one of them shines a little bit more than the others and that is Raúl Castillo who plays Richie. I read online about the actor having to discuss taking the role with his family because they weren't really the kind of family that readily accepted homosexuality and then to see him doing what I consider a fantastic job with this role and extremely believable acting was worth writing a review about. However, the entire cast gets my complements as well. They were all fantastic! Wonderful to see Tyne Daly! I'd also like to thank the actors, the producers, the writers and the directors for all doing a fantastic job! I do have to say though, I hate that they had Patrick leave San Francisco even though it was all done offscreen in between the second season and the movie. I'd have much rather he had moved in with Dom and stayed where I feel he belonged!
