Inspite of the cascade of ads that broke it up (thanks Plex!) I watched the film to the end, me who can't stand inept films. It plays down all personal and family drama as the title warns it will, refusing to make an unnecessary "big deal" out of them as is usually the case. That's very refreshing. The acting is accomplished enough, with the two lads doing best of all, and the plot only has a few implausible or clumsy twists to help the stories along. As to the treatment of the gay characters, it's nicely subdued and there's an unusual twist when one of them needs to be agressive with another. Enjoyable.

Meh

Clearly someone's first attempt at a film with beginning actors. It wasn't terrible but fairly meh. The actors reading their lines were somewhat stilted and forced. Some of the scenes were fairly implausible (eg: who takes a shower in their home bathroom wearing underwear). The overall narrative was okay but not fantastically executed.
