    Underrated masterpiece

    I can't believe it has such a low rating! Yes, it's not for everyone as any other movie. If you don't get it, it doesn't mean it's a bad.

    Honestly, it's such a great and fresh indie take on old school dramedy, very rare genre nowadays.

    You may like it or not but you will be definitely surprised but it's all twists. 100% must. At least I have reccomended it to all my friends.

    I also wanted to mention that the whole casting from the main characters to not the lead ones is just brilliant.

    Thank you so much for this almost 2 hours entertainment that distracted from this tough reality we are facing these days.

    A bit of odd fun

    Unusual little thing, to put it mildly since it involves a divorced man who realizes he is gay and who in the space of one day has three men for hire over to his beautiful home. One is to give him a massage, one is for him to have sex with and one is another male prostitute who likes having sex with the deceased. In the midst of this is a visit from a neighbor (Judith Light) who is whacked out of her mind on medications and gets locked in the place. This starts off terribly primarily due to the ridiculous characterization of the massage guy, but it and he improve as it goes along. That character, played by Lucas Gage, eventually becomes more likable, but the film's saving grace is the performance of Zachary Quinto who is really rather good in this as a sad and troubled man. Parts of this black comedy work very well, some doesn't, and there is surprising humor popping up here and there. Unfortunately, much like the beginning the ending is a mess. There is also the required sex scene and given that it is performed by two gay actors, it is spectacularly unerotic. American films about gay men tend to be rather poor, so this is a bit of a surprise being as good as it is, though it does take some tolerance, but hey, it's a comedy even if it does end with someone committing a major crime that they don't seem to be aware of.

    Not perfect, but perfectly alright

    This is more of the type of newish humor that needs to be written. Like "Bros" it is a refreshing and more normal way to portray gay people in cinema.

    Very clever writing good jokes, funny scenarios and quippy scenes without being too kitschy.

    Hopefully this does well and they keep making more dark/black comedies like this.

    Next I want to see a gay version of a satire Christopher Guest type movie, that would be cool.

    Then they could do a murder mystery type, then a gay themed sci-fi one.

    Not perfect, and that's ok, nothing in life, let alone cinema is a 10/10, just like no person is a 10.

    I am not a man nor gay but this was good

    One doesn't need a high budget to achieve. I started with low expectations due to the previous reviews (10, 2, 2, 10 etc) - in one word- you either hate it or love it type of movie. I was touched. It is layered in level of lecture, it is absurd, it is humorous, it is exaggerated and NOT pretending. Like life. Touches boundaries, shakes the middle class and cries along. It could have been a stage performance Eugene Ionesco style, refurbished anno now. It describes life. I am not gay neither a man. I was born after the boomer generation and before the millennials and I can say this film triggers something deep inside of me. So beautiful so absurd so genuine yet provocative and nevertheless serious. Just like reality but enhanced.

    Exactly what is expected

    A funny, dark comedy that doesn't try to be more than it is. Thoroughly enjoyed it as a gay movie that doesn't try to be groundbreaking and moving etc trying to win awards by showing the immense struggle of being a gay man and coming out.

    The relationship between Cameron and Gary is incredibly endearing and provide some proper laughs.

    A fresh take one what could be seen as an overdone premise, taking what would generally be a thriller and turning it into a light hearted dark comedy.

    Absolutely added to my list of favourites for light watching, and will be giving this another viewing in a few months.

    Zachary quinto and Lukas Cage both are amazing in this.
