Synopsis

Nolan Mack, a soft-spoken bank employee, undoubtedly loves his wife Joy, though their cavernous empty house only underscores how disconnected they’ve always been from each other. Nolan finds himself drifting from his familiar present-day life in pursuit of lost time after meeting a troubled young man named Leo on his drive home. What begins as an aimless drive down an unfamiliar street turns into a life-altering series of events.

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
o o Not a movie that i want to remember him by. depressing and heartless, that shows how low Hollywood will lower their morals.......just to get people to see their works.Why people want to see this death ridden movie,about how extreme hearth-less events. I not sure if Williams had a right mind when he did this. because he seems like it was really dressed in real life, how he pull this movie off. Sad what happen to him, but i sill can't say this was his best movie. It wasn't even his ave age, it was low standard get the people in the movies building type. I don't want seem mean, but its not right to put gays in this bad version of gay cursing style movie CRAP! so people believe this was a worthy movie to watch? or is it that they like this type depressing gay movie. This wasn't Williams best acting, nor was it even close to anything that make him great in his acting life. sad ending to a great actor.I sorry to see him go out with this badly plotted movie.Do you remember him say 1976 when he played MORK? and later in very funny comedy movies? Frankly speaking most if not all recall him from those days. HENCE don't recall him from his beginning. Many other worth while movies he played in in his early and middle life. But those that just base their basis rating. Early have little more no pass of his great early and later acting.
Prismark10 Boulevard features Robin Williams in his last main role. He plays Nolan, a closeted homosexual man in a marriage of convenience who works in a bank. He visits his ill father in hospital, he hates his job and he is 60 years old and feels his life has been unfulfilled.One night he nearly runs over a young gay hustler Leo. Nolan pays him money to spend time with him and soon becomes infatuated with him. Leo has money problems, drug problems and has a violent pimp. Nolan thinks he can straighten his life out maybe get him a job and does not realise he is being used. Leo after all is a male prostitute. He needs to do tricks to get money, he needs money for drugs. Both lives are on the verge of heading out of control.Kathy Baker plays Nolan's wife. They sleep in separate beds almost live separate lives but does not want to be without him. Bob Odenkirk plays his friend who is worried about what is happening to Nolan.Boulevard is a not a very good film, it is a very generic drama, too foreseeable for my liking. Twenty five years ago (see The Lost Language of the Cranes with Brian Cox) it would had been risky, daring and cutting edge but not anymore.Williams gives a very restraint performance but it is predictable. You know he has bitten off more than he can chew with Leo, he will fall in love with him, try to make him change, improve his life but Leo will just go on to hustle.For Nolan the even are cathartic, on the verge of promotion he realises he needs to change his life even at this late stage.
madamezelda Very odd for a Robin Williams film. Great acting but completely lacking in story. I wanted very much to like this film. I really wish I had something nicer to say. Fortunately, I just watched it on cable so all I lost was my time.The acting was so painfully superb that I could personally feel the loneliness, awkwardness and despair the characters experienced throughout the movie. Now that it's over, all I feel is the need to warn others about this movie.The suspense factor gets an honorable mention as it did keep me watching until the end of the film.
Reno Rangan Ian McKellen would have been a convenient actor to lead in this as it was a very close to his real life. You might have heard this is a Robin Williams last movie. One final amazing character display where the whole movie was about his part, but nothing else. A decent storyline, but a simple, low cost drama about homosexual.The exposition of the tale was very brief, but took its time to evolve in the entire 90 minutes. Still clarifications like regarding his wife, their marriage and the end scene can not be proved its meaning. Though we can assume them in many angles. I think those were the major setback for this film, otherwise it could have been a better one.I would have loved it if the emotions were stronger. Because the film characters and their relationship constructions were absorbing. So the only missing piece was the sentimental appeal. But Robin Williams' sudden dismissal and the time of this movie is coming out is what heartbreaks, especially the sort of role he appeared in it. I am positive that if you like him very much, then you must see it.6/10
