Beautiful, moving film.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

THE best, and most realistic, series that I have ever seen. Gives a great view of Manchesters gay community from a male perspective. If you get the chance to see it DO DO DO!!!

I've only seen 5 episodes of this series so far, but all I can say is that it's great! The best thing about "Queer as folk" is that the characters aren't feminine - you could never tell that they're gay unless you knew it. Most often when there's a gay character in a movie/series, he's very feminine. Another typical thing for British series in general, is that the actors look like an everyday person (which cannot be said about all the American "Beverly Hills"-series). I also think it's wonderful that all gay characters are played by gay actors. Why does it feel like it's more fun being gay as a guy?This show is definitely going to keep my interest!

Pity there's no points system to give this show a clear ten out of ten. Aiden Gillen is superb as Stuart the lead role. However beware adopting him as a role model. But for those of us who are already Stuart-like just sit back and grin. Craig Kelly, who had a bit-part in Titanic, is memorable as Vince. In fact so much so that I was calling him Vince on set, just recently. Charles Hunnam as Nathan already has an appreciation society and in Queer As Folk breaks taboos that will keep this show controversial for may years to come. Fine scriptwriting from Russell T Davies makes 'Tales of the City' look very tame indeed - utmost respect to Armistead

I am one of the few people in the US fortunate enough tosee this British TV series. It's certainly better than the majority of American sitcoms and mini-series. The story lines give a mature, humorous, satiric look at the life of gays in Manchester, England. There are serious elements of parents rejecting their gay children, homophobia, and the dangers of picking up people, but overall the stories arekept brisk, funny, and delightful.The closest that American TV comes is DYNASTY, MELROSEPLACE, ACTION, and MARRIED...WITH CHILDREN, but this showis more gutsy and even has Shakespearian irony. It presents interesting characters, bold plotting, and transcends its own open sexual elements. Following theadventures of the three main characters (sexual-magnetStuart, unrequited romantic Vince, and teenaged conquerorNathan), the story includes a whole wide world of otherpeople and in wonderfully playful.It would be nice to think that one of the US cable lineswill be bold enough to show it.
