There are few words that can describe the feelings that this movie triggered. Love, passion, joy, happiness, and then sadness, disappointment, devastation, loneliness. All at once and all in such a versatile way that it makes you wonder what your next emotion will be.

The plot is magnificently put in place to create all these feelings to the viewer, who is silently being engaged in a story that starts as a simple unintended romance to end in a complicated sequence of dramatic events.

Aside from the excellent cast, the movie's music is exceptional, as it powerfully invades the most important scenes and dresses the atmosphere with charm and beauty.

This is a true masterpiece.

What a beautiful film story. And yes finally, a film made on gay characters who really project real life stories and do not reproduce the stereotype of a troubling gay life. On the contrary, it is about people who enjoy life, make mistakes, hurt and lough a lot, and they do it all in their own unique way.

This is totally different from your average romance, or a story of a wedding that falls apart. This is about two young men who cannot make it work out any more and try to navigate themselves through a divorce, which makes them revise all things, they took for granted. In the end life finds the way, but the journey in which the film takes us upon, is the real pleasure.

If you want to raise awareness to people, then force them to watch this one. Before watching this, I was thinking how a similar the-earth-is-being-destroyed movie looked like 20 years ago (and we ve seen lots of them), and then this one came to get me thinking that (thankfully) we are in 2022. I am glad for the contemporary approach the movie had, showing how we humans try (usually with no luck) to communicate with each other, even when the stake is at the absolute maximum.

McKay really nailed this one.

This one got me into tears. A slow starter but a quick grower, hits you right where you would never expected it to be. A 10/10 for me for the story and the acting.

Very little pieces of series has been more educational that this one. Colton's naked truth helps us realizing how much does it take to.. be yourself as a gay man even now at 2020's. His long and painful path, that unfortunately every LGBTQ+ person has to go through, leads to the light. Just watch this if you are straight. You may be able to really get gay people after watching it.

The story is really compelling. It is a true inspiration for all gay people to feel proud of themselves. Someone may think that in 2020 coming out as gay wouldn't be an issue, but, as you can clearly see in the film, for a gay person, coming out feels like an entire mountain they have to climb. Acting-wise I think that Hedges, Kidman and Crowe are phenomenal, all trying to face their demons in their own lonely ways. To me, this is one of the most important movies ever made.

While watching, I caught myself trying to find out if the story corresponds to real events and if the movie "Meg" exists. But this was the least important. Instead, I realized that the fictional story is inspiring for all the things, Hollywood represents. Its power and its influence are so strong, that it can literally change the world. I hope that many many stories for the (even nowadays) "outcast" of this world make it up to the big screen, as we today still struggle accepting diversity, equality and social justice. Thank you for this amazing series.

The movie tells the story of the survivor of an air plane accident that has actually taken place in Sioux City. Jeff Bridges was never better than here and he captured me with his amazing performance. What I liked the most in the film is that it made me think that the battles we give every day in our lives, in order to face our problems, are battles we just have to give, because that's what life is about. A must see!
