Let me see, gay surf movie. Uh-huh. Anyone have a link for "Masters of the Universe," now that's a real man's movie.

When I first started looking at this movie I thought it was going to be boring. But boy, was I wrong! It is so touching. The intimacy and connection are great between the two characters. The bond of friendship and love is evident and when they do come together sexually (which is assumed but not actually shown) it is so sensual. I love the part where Trevor and Brad are walking back from surfing and talking about each others goals. Brad is shocked to find out that Trevor read his book. What got me (and keeps me going back to that scene over and over again) is how they look at each other and you know they both know about the other and that they are both saying by their non verbal cues that they are attracted to each other! That is so awesome!!! I'm glad they made a movie like this to show how gays really are. We're not "perverts" as we are often portrayed but real "normal" people like anyone else with feelings, connections, etc. I especially loved the ending as well. I won't say how it ends but I will say that I'm glad to finally see more movies with such an ending. Get this DVD! You won't be disappointed!!!!

This touching coming-of-age story feels utterly real and contemporary. The characters have the SoCal surf culture lingo down pat, and the interaction between the 2 leads feels genuine and totally believable. This is good enough to stand against anything on network TV. The production values were quite good, and it lacks the low-budget feel and poor acting found in many gay films. This movie will appeal to anyone seeking a realistic portrayal of today's youth experience. The story is also universal enough to appeal to non-gay viewers as the gay aspect is only one element in a touching drama.

It's not a bad movie, but it's really no better than "average." I don't understand why it's so overpraised. The acting is pretty bad at points, and some of the writing is awful (the main character's sister is a total caricature). It's a cute gay movie with a happy ending (and, let's face it, not many gay movies actually end with "boy gets boy"). If that's what you're looking for, you'll find this movie satisfying. But if you are looking for anything more, you're out of luck. Again, a decent movie, but nothing more than that.

Most homossexuals in the world doesn't know or don't want to see they're homossexual. They avoid opportunities by fear to discover them selves loving or desiring another person for the same sex type. This movie shows, in a romantic way, a discovery of a young guy fullfiled with a father spirit to your nephew. The movie thus set critics to a straight relationship focus on the mother unresponsability about her son. Thus show that doesn't matter if you are gay or not, what trully matter is your heart intention, the way you see your life and how we care about others, including family and children. A great movie, in particular to those who doesn't get out of closet yet. The location in California is very beautiful including the sunset (I was in California when I saw this movie).
