Shut Up and Kiss Me

I enjoyed this movie mostly because it portrayed a very real gay situation. The ending was the only part that seemed to be fake.

"oh, no, honey...no..." The funny thing here is I immediately saw the lead character, Ronnie Kerr and thought "wait...I just saw a total piece of crap/waste of time with this guy in it yesterday" and sure enough, went to IMDb and saw not only was he also the lead in the tragic assault to gay cinema called "Saltwater", but also wrote both of them. I'd say that was the only funny thing about this film at all, but I have to be completely honest and say there are a couple of really good performances which were obviously ad-lib-ed (no, not Mark Cirillo's same tired character he does in every performance that will give him a part because he will do full-frontal) but rather the opening scene with the director...yet even HER awesome performance was butchered through very bad editing and B-roll throughout-style camera-work. Look, I get that everyone needs a hobby...but at this point I'd say this niche genre of cheap, badly written/acted/filmed gay films is reaching saturation; no one gets a "pass" anymore, so come back when you have REAL and NEW to say (or at the very least entertaining).

Have to say that on the whole I enjoyed this movie. It was certainly not blockbuster or Academy Award material but it was an enjoyable watch. (Let's be honest not all Academy award winners are worth watching either if that is what you were looking for) I guess the issue for me was the reasoning behind Gray's(?)argument that Ben should just accept his playing around because that's just the way he is, was a little ingenuous since he was not even willing to consider Ben's side of the argument or his feelings.

Other than that the movie was fun to watch. thank you for producing it.

This is a Really cute story, & I love the characters but the story kinda jumps & the scenery is very poor, but all in all I have this 10 stars because most of us have lived the storyline of this movie. It's a sweet movie & it's worth watching. Just don't expect a blockbuster movie.

Ronnie Kerr, now Ron Smith, writes and stars in this adorable romp that illustrates the challenges of dating and relationships. Ben's friends accuse him of being a commitment phobe but an idealist at heart he just can't imagine settling and seems to be on an unrealistic quest for Mr. Right. Enter Grey, a man Ben falls in love with almost immediately. But, is he really Mr. Right?

The low budget feel of this movie is palpable throughout. From lighting and sound to film quality issues, it almost feels like it was shot on video tape. Annoying distractions but the script is good and occasionally it's hilariously funny. The acting is really OK

Get past the drawbacks and you've got a cute movie here. I recommend it.
