Beautiful, moving film.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

This Mexican film is very slow, and that will put off even some fans of gay cinema. It is a different film in many ways, so it is refreshing, but its slow pace and long sequences of quiet may put some viewers to sleep.That aside, this film takes those stereotyped notions of gay sex being "raw, primal, rough and unemotional" and tosses them out the window. This is one of perhaps 4 films containing gay sex that is certainly graphic, but also very erotic. For me, erotic is sexually explicit AND emotional. Sex without emotion is not erotic.For what the film lacks in dialogue, it makes up for in nonverbal communication between the 2 main characters and the third character in the "love-triangle." The endless pleas for touch, embrace and kiss are very powerful, and the pain and confusion and longing when a lover is rejected by the other who has suddenly lost interest are very communicative to the viewer who has been sucked into the story.It won't appeal to everyone, but it is different and refreshing.

This is gay soft porn film. At least 90% of it is sex between the same two guys. As for dialog--what's dialog? As for story? It's so boring that I don't know what the story is, or even IF there is a story, nor do I care. Big Time Loser! (Oh yes, there are English subtitles for the script that doesn't exist.)I've just been notified that the essential qualification for a movie review is ten lines of text. The guys who run IMDb reviews must be the same guys who wrote the script for this movie and are trying to make up for lost lost opportunity.How many lines of text does it take to warn people not to waste their time and money?

The first time I watched this movie, I was thinking .......what????? All that camera spinning had my head spinning, but even then something out of the ordinary seemed to scream right out of the screen.Then, out of sheer boredom (because every movie I own I've watched a thousand times already) I watched again. It suddenly was like a lightbulb went on in my head. Since then I've watched it two more times and every time I see something new that I haven't seen before. This is a brilliant piece of art. All my complaints from my first viewing have become positives. The lack of dialogue works. The slow movements works. The spinning works. And the final coup is the masterful use of the credits to give the final ending of the movie. The music and songs selected blend in seamless and the acting is superb. As with everything in life, nothing is perfect and use of lighting could have been better and there was too much "choppiness" to the feeling of the overall story. But, still, in a matter of weeks, this has become one of my top 5 fav movies of all time. I'm glad now I was bored enough to watch it a second time. I have a feeling I'll watch again a hundred times. Amazing!!

Just saw this at the Chicago Film Festival - avoid it at all costs unless you have sleep problems. It is a film filled with pretensions - it opens with a minor quote from "Hiroshima mon amour" and it's all downhill from there. Camera work - imagine a child trying to imitate Wong Kar Wai. Story line - Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' "The Love I saw in You Was Just a Mirage" expanded from 3 minutes to over 2 hours but filled with repetition. For butt numbing pain this film ranks with the benches at the Methodist church my parent dragged me to when I was a kid. I want 2+ hours of my life refunded. Julian Hernandez's promoter prefaced the viewing with comment that the film was "controversial" - that is true only for the film's narcotic effect.
