Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

TeenzTen An action-packed slog

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

mica_d123 I loved this movie. It was touching and heart wrenching.It showed that love conquers all no matter what happens. I can't stop watching this movie. I play it over and over again I just can't get enough of this film. The director did a great job with this film. It captured the essence of true love and what is meant to be in love with someone.I think they should make a Defying Gravity 2 even after all these years. I would like to know what happened with Pete and Griff's relationship, Griff's friendship with Denetra. The second movie should be class reunion about what happened in their lives after the first movie and what they been up to.

Figaro14 There's a gem of a script here. Clearly the filmmaker is working on a ultra low budget. Many of the supporting cast deliver their lines as if they are in a high school play -- they are painfully wooden. However the idea behind the film is an important one and the film will touch you on multiple levels. I somehow wish this script could get fine tuned and remade as a major production. I feel the film as a lot to say about the pressures of college life -- especially that of living in a frat house on a big ten campus and having to lead a double life.Some of the material for the story appears to have been inspired by the Matthew Shepard story and the film feels extremely relevant.In spite of the low budget nature of the film, see this picture!

bellhollow This movie has several opportunities to make a splash. There is a gay bashing. There is the closet gay who refuses to talk about his relationship yet wants to open up to a black female class mate. I feel like the story should have explored more with the closet lesbian and not so much on the back slapping antics of young men talking about how much sex they got the night before. The one really horrible item to this movie is that the lead actor was by far the worst actor in the movie. Everyone else was actually very, very good. I could not feel his anger when he found out who the bashers were, which I felt should have been the most pivotal point of the show. His frustration at being gay was sometimes there, sometimes not. I just felt like something ended up on the cutting room floor.

Glenn I rented the DVD and had high hopes after reading their blurb, but ultimately it was a let down. I have seen my share of gay films over the years, and I thought this one actually had an interesting story to tell, it just didn't tell it very well. Others here have decried the acting and rightly so.I found the whole thing right down to the gay bashing was very predictable and cliche. Even though the film is only about 90 minutes it felt much longer. It needed a better editing job and the script needed work. There just didn't seem to be a whole lot of depth to the characters. But I did like the str8 best friend character who finally gets Griff to do the right thing. But it seems to me that he could have gone to the cops and helped them out even without exposing himself to the the frat. If he really cared about Pete wouldn't he have done that sooner as the detective wondered?On a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 5. But I liked the idea of the film better than its execution.
