Softwing
Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

The Plot.The story, set in the world of adult entertainment, centers around three characters: Johnny Rebel, a straight man who has become a star in the world of gay porn; Johnny's stripper girlfriend Babylon; and Sean, a naive young man in love with Johnny, who ends up becoming Johnny's "fluffer". Oh My...More gay agenda.Main character pretend ot be straight but he's gayer than gay just to look at him.The movie is abysmal. All the good reviews are clearly from clowns trying to further hte gay agenda. It happened with EVERY gay themed film. It's like they are paid to write reviews.I wanted to throw up. The real question is how did they get some well know character actors to be in this? All gay?I find it hard to believe this ever made the movie theatres. It's one of the worst films I have ever seen

I am surprised at how many people have given 'The Fluffer' a poor rating. I found the film to be very entertaining. The acting was excellent, the writing was excellent, and the sexual tension is incredibly well portrayed. I would say it is not as good as My Own Private Idaho, but it was certainly up there with it in quality. The main character, Sean McGinnis (played by Michael Cunio) was very believable and I would like to see him in more films. The porn star was played very well by Scott Gurney who has since gone on to become the host of a reality TV program (what a shame).This is a definite surprise film I expected b-grade and definitely got a-grade.See it; you will not regret it.

I handed in my dissertation last Friday and had been trying to get hold of this film for some of the research as it was on homosexuality in the movies..Typical that i found it today for a couple of quid in one of thos esmall video shops that you stumble upon!! So to the movie itself:It does not have a very strong storyline, just a basic unrequited love plot but hey, that kinda does ok for most films these days. The difference here is that it is set in *shock horror* the (gay) porn industry. OK so we have had films set in the porn industry before..like boogie nights but this is a simpler tale and i don't think it attempts to be much more. The acting is not as cardboard as some people have made out and the two male leads equip themselves well. Its not the best movie around but its one of those nice little independent movies that pleasantly surprises you when you manage to track it down and i got a lot more satisfaction outta this movie than i did watching The BUtterfly Effect, just the other week!

The Fluffer was a great story with some terrific performances. Roxanne Day as "Babylon" and Michael Cunio as "Sean" were both outstanding in their character portrayals of two people obsessed with something they couldn't have. What makes them even more impressive was the fact that the object of their passion was the one major flaw in the film. "Rebel" was as lifeless and uninteresting a character as I've ever seen on film.So, while Cunio and Day were working so convincingly at wrestling with their pain, Scott Gurney's "Rebel" made their job nearly impossible. It also made it nearly impossible for the audience to care. But somehow, Cunio and Day did make us care, and that is the art of acting at its best. The supporting cast was very good, the script was very good, the direction just so-so.
