All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Raymond Sierra
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Firstly, thank 'you' Sissy Spaceck for you trouble and involvement ; secondly, thanks for Robin Wright' presence; thirdly, however Under-toned, thank's for Colin Farrel's impersonation's ...; Wholesemoly, a TRUE and UNIQUE gem of a motion-picture's adaptation of an 'unique' written NOVEL ... !!??Seecondly, more of the same, thank 'you' Sissy Spaceck for your trouble and 'sharing'...Why ?, didn't you ALL share with your "pair's" appraisal of your performance's and/or object's ...Again, and repeated, this fictional depiction of family-related life is way-out-of-reality, however realistically-portrayed !!

I really have to read the back of the DVD box 'cause I wandered into a gay movie again.Being that this is a movie about a persecuted group of people, I have to say that I'm a tree huggin' liberal. I'm for equality down the line.But this was really pretentious. Done well, without a doubt. Good direction, acting and writing.But I really didn't like these people. Very dysfunctional. We're all dysfunctional, but really? If you're having sex with your best friend as a teenager, straight or not, and you expect to be just friends after that, then you have to reassess your common sense. Not to mention basing the rest of your life on that common sense.I get confused by these movies. They don't show gay men in a good light. Gay men can be gay men if they like. There are a lot of annoying straight people. I guess there are annoying gay men, too. But it doesn't work well when your heroes in a movie are annoying. Give it a try with action movies, the sexuality of the heroes are cursory at best. Let's try it with gay men, as an exercise.

Bobby (Colin Farrell) is a sweet spirited individual who sees the world in a haze of naive innocence despite the tragedies that have defined much of his life. He is a survivor and he has no limits in his ability to love and to make his life happy as well as the lives of those he loves. Bobby knows "It's a big, beautiful, noisy world," but "There's nothing to fear." He is the kind of person that so many of us aspire to be - eternally optimistic and always anticipating the wonders of the future.There is a home at the end of the world for Bobby. It is there for all of us as well as long as we open our eyes to see it and open our hearts to let it in.

If you are a fan of the book - you will hate this movie. If you are a fan of story lines and decent acting - you will really hate this movie. Colin Farrell is the most dismal excuse for an actor going around and the fact that so many hicks have commented positively towards his "performance" in this movie only goes to further illustrate how mainstream entertainment is slowly dumbing us down into believing that we are watching something really "meaningful" - or that actually makes sense. As for Sissy Spacek and Robin Wright Penn - when your career is approaching oblivion I guess you will make any half arsed attempt to salvage what you can. But really ladies - give it up while still being able to hold your heads somewhat high. Finally, to Michael Cunningham - you are a brilliant author and your book A Home at the End of the World is brilliant - here's a little tip though - no one is going to read it based on seeing this movie because they have destroyed your story. Seriously - don't let them do this to your work.
