The story is about the kind of misunderstanding we all understand, prejudice. And it's about hatred, but it won't make You hate. It WILL make You hurt, about the things we never did because we were too afraid, and the horrible things that happen when we are not afraid enough, and also about this lonely and tragic direction that all our lives are drifting toward. Oh, but enjoy the scenery! Breathtaking...makes me homesick. See this movie, and i promise You will not soon get over it. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This movie was too drawn out at the end. Heath Ledger mumbled throughout the entire movie, and it was very hard to understand their dialogue because of that. The ending was anticlimatic and too long. I found myself waiting for the end before I was tempted to stop watching it all together. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I am gay and my husband and I both hated this movie. It is way too long, the music is depressing and boring, and these men seemed to just want sex every now and then from each other.... This movie just paves the way for more stereotypes. The only thing I did like about the movie was that nobody died from AIDS like in most gay themed movies. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

The scenery is great, the acting is mediocre, and the premise of the story is abyssmally stupid. See the movie if you want to, you might like it... Don't see the movie if you don't want to, you may hate it... But in the words of Rhett Butler: "Frankly My Dear, I don't give a damn." I don't know what this "It will grab you by the heart..." stuff is all about, I must have missed that part. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

It's not about cowboys, it's about two homosexual men. Hollywood is making fools out of everyone that watches this kind of garbage. It's hard enough to teach our children right from wrong, we don't need movies like this confusing them. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I did not even get past the first VIOLENT sex scene. This "love story" as it is called, could have easily been told without showing the "behind" the scenes view of it. The movie was just as disgusting as I thought it would be. Use EXTREME caution should you choose to watch this and you have children in the home. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
