The movie is boring from beginning to end, the plot is horrible, there is basically no climax, and you just cannot relate to the actors. It is about a gay guy who falls in love with a killer, then he acts like a baby when he finds out the killer was really guilty. Then he still likes the killer even though he is guilty. That is the whole plot.

I fell asleep after 25 minutes, so I can only tell you how noncaptivating the first half hour is. But this is not a movie for men with hair on thier chest.

I almost didn't see this movie because of Ian's review (see below) and that would have been a big shame. This movie had my full attention from beginning to end. And I was astounded by the acting in this film. A week later and I'm still thinking about this movie. It's one of those that stays with you.

I agree with Ian C. The movie is long, drawn out and boring. Lost interest in 20 minutes. The acting is fine, but can't save a thoroughly meandering (like a slow puddle oozing down a very, very slight hill), film. No Doz will not work.
