SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Joseph Murray I stumbled upon this movie in the wee hours of the morning and couldn't stop watching it. It's not the best movie I've seen, but it's something that any gay/bi-sexual man should check out at least once in their lifetime. Ditto for those curious about what the GLBT life can be like, and anyone else who just happens to be in the mood for a neat, quick, very realistic drama. The main character is enticing and intriguing. He serves as kind of an enigma for most of the movie, until the end, when his full-on grief is laid out for all to see. It is heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time. It did my heart good to see that even though there is violence in the world, that the victims of such violence can learn to forgive and to rebuild. This movie is def a classic.

ThrownMuse Urbania starts out with the protagonist asking us: "Heard any good stories lately?" Next, we see a couple well-known urban legends played out, and this sets the tone and theme for the rest of the film, which starts out to be about a man trying to come to terms with recent past events, while pursuing a potential love interest (but you don't really learn much about this man until the plot unravels.) This movie was so fascinating I watched it twice in one weekend. I rarely do that, but this seems to demand multiple viewings. This is easily the best movie I've seen about urban legends. It utilizes a bleak urban setting to weave this popular folklore with the story of one man's night and the difficult time he has struggling to face his past and gain control of his life. Fantasy and reality are appropriately difficult to separate, just as it is with urban legends. The cinematography is excellent and innovative, the script is tight, the acting is perfect (Dan Futterman is outstanding as the lead), the character development is exceptional. This is quite brilliant, really. Like a David Lynch film, every second, every sound, every word, every image tells you something important. Finally, this is a film that (going along splendidly with the urban legend theme) questions assumptions some groups of of people have about "the other" (and vice versa). My Rating: 9/10.

coffeechiller I saw this movie about 2 years ago and I still recommend it to my friends. I did just that today actually.The whole movie is an emotional ride. What's going on? Why did he leave him? The ending had me in tears. It was so sad seeing a wonderful relationship destroyed. I don't want to give anything away because it was such a moving movie.Some made a comment about this movie being too gay. Yes it involved 2 gay men, but I think straight people should see this movie as well to see that relationships are all the same. Some get destroyed for the wrong reasons. And just think, gay people can say that MOST movies are too straight. But then there wouldn't be many movies to go see. So, gay or straight, just watch it for the storyline and meaning.

jamesbond-1 U will cry and ull love this by the end of the movie. Futterman is excellent in this odyssey and misleads u quite often as to what the real plot is.As I was watching the film, I must admit I was tempted to stop it as I couldn't see where it was going. U will not understand until the very end what did really happen. Its like a present wrapped in too much paper and taken different shape than what it really was. A very different approach of homophobia in NYC that will make you think....Again. Well done Dan Futterman! keep up the good work.
