Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
PlatinumRead Just so...so bad
Bereamic Awesome Movie
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
playboi-96678 I thought this was a really good movie.Whats bullshit is Netflix has movies like this with 1 or 2 stars that people don't watch and pass up because of the low ratings. I wish they would give IMDb ratings so that I could really gauge what to give a chance.But anyways, again I thought it was a really good movie, with a realistic plot and story line. I thought it would have a "lifetime" feel to it but it had a life of its own. If you don't have much to do, and you have an hour or two on your hands to watch a movie, I suggest this one.
supermaggie This film is neither boring nor pointless, that there are people who see it this way, makes its importance even more clear. I did certainly not give the film such a high rating, because I am looking for love stories, but because there is an important point being made: it is falsely being said, that it is about the breaking of a taboo, the right thing to do is to make clear that there are no taboos here at all. Are we really still so behind in gender equality? It is not about incestuous intercourse between relatives, it is not about seduction of minors, it is about four grown-ups who find each other, and that they are cross-over related does not matter at all. If it were not the sons but the brothers of the women, then there would be the same great firestorm, I am sure, because what many reviewers seriously see as repulsive is the mere fact that the women are much older - so what ?? Biology (to put it in a corny way: the early loss of virility with age and the late flowering of female sensuality) even suggests that this way it makes all the more sense. And since the world is horribly overpopulated anyway, you do not need to bring the argument of childbearing. Fact: if disgusting old men lay their wrinkled hands on young women and girls, it is called normal, if the sexes are reversed (then the whole thing is not half as disgusting, but) it is called a scandal and repulsive etc.-why? Because men like to have it this way and the men determine everything and most women are so stupid and obey. Fact is also, that -as the film shows- (unfortunately) it is still unconventional, but just does not have to be nasty and that it is not better to act sensible/ in accordance with the social expectations and break up an intimacy and affection and attempt the conventional model instead – this way everybody will suffer in the end. And about the speculation whether Lil and Roz indirectly live out a lesbian relationship through the sons: it would not bother me if they were lesbian, but they are not, it is about an intimate connection, which they intensify/deepen by this cross-over relationship, not about indirect lesbian sex - fortunately not everything is about sex! Conclusion: relevant issue, as it is still a "taboo" / an inequality between women and men - for silly, vain reasons. -> No breach of taboo since there is no taboo just deep affection which is being sacrificed for social conventions which makes everybody unhappy.
Julia Pickle Never in my life have I ever watched such a cringe worthy 'film'. From the cheap dialogue, to the ridiculous plot that seems to have been written by a 15 year old teenager, this so called 'motion picture' is just pathetic.The acting was similar to that of a porn intro. The plot was not realistic at all and honestly quite disturbing... this story could have been told in 10 million different ways that could have made it better. Instead, it's just a slightly disturbing porno about -------------*spoiler alert*-----------two moms who fall in love with each other's sons and ARE OKAY WITH IT and KEEP THE RELATIONSHIPS GOING. ---------------------------------------I don't know whether the director was trying to be realistic or not, but if she was, this is a MASSIVE failure. The dialogue, the characters *who spends that much time with their mom when they're in their 20s??*, the whole world of this movie is just BIZARRE. It honestly feels like watching an adaption of a badly written fanfic with just as cheesy and ridiculous dialogue and storyline... PLS
Ali_MSSM You'll like this movie if: - you're ready to see your best friend sleep with your mother - you're ready to see your best friend sleep with your son - you're ready to have a foursome ..including your mother - you have fantasies about your mother's best friend - you go to granny's category on porn sites - you want to sleep with your motherNo Dialogue, No events, Expected events, People staring at each other,, sleeping with each other for no reason...idea could have been better i think that porn movies plot are better than this.. 2 hours total waste of time ... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. . .. .. .. .. .. ... ..... ... ... ... ... .. ... ... ... ... ..... .... ... ... ... ... ... .. . .. .
