This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

The leads are cute but the script is terrible. Couldn't get past the flashback scenes.
This is some guy's fantasy or if he remember this from his youth, he's got cognitive dissonance. No closeted guy would behave that way.
The direction is terrible. Sometime why is left unsaid has more power that spelling things out.

Alas, I hated it. Well, not entirely but mostly. I blame a lot of it's shortcomings on direction and acting. One of the ways I gauge an actors ability is by how well they cry. Eric Dean actually pulled it off quite well so I'll be watching for him . He is the most talented of the entire lot. I found this movie long and boring. James McCabe, though sizzlingly hot in a Ken Berry sort of way,," failed to convince me of anything. Also, there is not enough intimacy here. I would have appreciated a lot more kissing, touching, holding, cuddling, and maybe a tasteful sex scene. None of it happened. Don't waste your time.

ah beyond the title summary... POOR casting choice for the goateed adult lead actor; NOTHING realistic in the scenes, ZERO chemistry between the supposed lead actors, both the younger and older versions... OVERACTED scenes...I literally cringed every time they kissed... and I'm a huge gay kiss enthusiast, but between THESE guys??? Something quite unnatural about it all...The closing scenes... just unbelievable and unrealistic.I have to be honest, it was PAINFUL to sit through this movie, and the ONLY reason I persisted was... I HAD to see if there was ANY way... that it could get WORSE, as it progressed.And... I wasn't disappointed; it actually managed... to get worse.Basic story premise COULD have been decent, for a great gay film... but with all the above mentioned SEVERE flaws... it was a terrific example in just HOW to make a REALLY dreadful, awful, unwatchable movie.

I watch a lot of independent films.I can be very very forgiving. But this is possibly the poorest product i have seen in a long time.The script is soooooooo bad. The angst the teenagers feel is so badly manufactured. They are unhappy, we get hints about parental abuse and family problems. Oh and then there is that gay thing. They are going to be separated when one moves away. I could buy into that part. But cut to years later and our character who has moved, has more angst now than ever. He is a miserable film producer. Maybe he was making this film, and knew how bad it was going to be so he had something to model on.The acting is atrocious but with a script like this i don't see how better acting could have helped it. Then there is the straight friend that seems to me to be a better option than the one he left behind in the little town in AZ. There is NO CHEMISTRY between the two actors who are supposed to be in love with one another. They have nothing in common. I would rather watch grass grow than this piece of drek. There is just no possible way that this could be believable. Try something else , there is so much better out there.
