Kalissa H. @kali_416 Jun 1, 2026 It was slow but still enjoyable. See more Dec 11, 2019 No solid core. The plot was lacking some oomph. And the cinematography was lacking. See more Apr 3, 2018 Fabulous. Reminds you how heroic the aids activists were in the 80's. Every young person should see it. See more Mar 31, 2018 I am somewhat tempered in my reactions, having lived pre, current and post aids crisis. While, the initial subject matter is a bit been there, done that, one can't help but be moved by the evocation of lost emotions stirred by this movie and cast. To fully impact the themes, the soldiers of a last hurrah, largely a forgotten army, the lack of understanding what 20 years can do, from innocent "What do mean gay bars weren't legal No hospitals would take us, no funeral homes would bury our dead" to Queer Eye or RuPaul one would need a three hour documentary. I wanted more of the generational gap to "school" the "young un's' But in what there was, this film showcases some brilliant acting. Alan Cummings delivers the performance of a career to date, with more nuances than twists in the Yellow Brick Road. It is a multi leveled, intense performance worthy of Oscar contention, one of those rare tour de force performances of actors being the role, not playing it. Equally moving was David Drake in the supporting role of William, having fought the good fight and lost. His anger and resignation to death were real. Zachary Booth proved to be an unknown thespian surprise, with his uncanny resemblance to the famous Joe Dallesandro poster over William's bed. The rest of the cast, including co-writer Anthony Johnston and Everett Quinton serve their parts well. In all it may have the writers' catharses, but it is a story which resonates to all. This is not a popcorn picture, but the kind you need to sit over coffee to discuss. While not perfect, you will feel it. See more Mar 28, 2018 A raw and honest portrayal. Kudos to Alan Cumming and Vincent Gagliostgro for making this film. See more Mar 27, 2018 The Gay community accounts for 0.8% of the general population; but are characters in at least 9 out of 10 movies. I am SO tired of people who are expertly trained to deceive deciding that the other 99% of us want their sexuality shoved in our faces! Movie viewership is down by double digits every year for the last 8 years. It started at about the same time Hollywood started their all out war on conservative actors, movies, and television shows. Boycott liberal communist agenda movies! See more Read all reviews
