    There was potential but it sure didn't live up to it. I agree with someone who said that it was like watching robocop - I thought more of Arnold's terminator. The acting was very mediocre and they looked uncomfortable. Why can't they have a gay storyline that is on the same level as most "straight" movies - passion, good acting and higher production values?? Not worth the two hours, I of course had to finish it after I started watching to see how it turned out.
