The movie was really good with good performance by the Actors. Who would have thought Colin Farrell was ever involved in something as thought provoking as this subject matter. Well done. July 14, 2008

I really wanted to like this movie. I had read the book,and the book was amazing!! The movie changed a lot of the main story line, and it became a mish-mash of ridiculous scenes. If you did not read the book, you might enjoy this, for those of us who did, stay away from this film.

This is a DVD about an individual who learns from a very young age about life. He learns about sex and drugs from his older brother. Who also takes to the back yard where a grave yard is conveniently placed. His brother teaches him about death as he runs through a glass window.
It tells of his mothers deat but does not show it. His sexual awakening is with an adolescent boy his age. Later on he has a wife and a baby. He is a good father. Though he still has feelings for his male lover. When his wife puts 2+2 togeather she goes off to Deleware to be with her mother.

rating: 3 QuoteSimply satisfactory.Quote
While Michael Cunningham's book was phenomenal - each character working their way into your heart with their own narration - the film version is only satisfactory. The similarities, even in dialogue, are resounding (I find myself smile and nod at the moments I remember clearly), but the speed of the film is unsettling, and the deviations from the original story are disappointing. I commend the filmmakers for taking on the story of an extremely nontraditional family (major kudos - it's great!), but tell it the way it was written and to a better degree - not in fast-moving short scene selections that leave much to be desired.

rating: 5 QuoteA small gem of a movie!Quote
This movie took me by surprise. A tour de force of acting, especially by Colin Farrell, and really, by just about everyone in the movie, I was captivated from first to last. A poignant story, it was made all the more enjoyable by the wealth of 70's & 80's music intergral to the story line. What a story. Beautifully told. Can't recommend it enough. February 1, 2008
