You won't be disappointed!
For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
I've been an avid moviegoer since The Graduate. Hundreds of movies viewed, so many classics. But as a gay man, that's another, less satisfying story. There have been, sadly, too few really first-rate movies that I can truly, deeply enjoy on a personal level. The British, "Weekend", has been one. And tonight, totally unexpectedly (like the film's plot), I have another favorite, "Plan B."Utterly charming, beautifully acted and realized, this comedy-drama could not have been better. So much talent around the globe! Now I don't want to oversell and disappoint you. So please ignore my heartfelt review. Find a copy. Then sit down, relax and make believe it is just a movie somebody boosted somewhere. I am looking forward to telling friends, and watching this charmer again soon!
I have to say this movie is like 1 in a Million, because of the emotional roller coaster I had when watching it. I was intrigued, sad, happy and sometimes excited. I don't think this is a 'mainstream' movie because it is such an acquired taste. Only people who appreciate all the details in this movie would understand why it was depicted that way. The most poignant moment for me is, when Bruno argued about the existence of Peter Pan, and that was genius, and people who skipped here and there along this movie wont find all these amazing moments. For someone complaining about the gritty apartment would realize love does not only belongs to the rich people.Finally, for who dispute how these guys support their life (as if they were not working) would realize, a lot of the scenes were taken during evening or at night which explained the dark backdrop.
A lot of good movies come out of Argentina and Chile. Unfortunately this isn't one of them. This viewer always has a reluctance to knock a well-intentioned movie made on a shoestring budget but this movie has multiple drawbacks. The idea of a straight guy setting out to seduce another (seemingly) straight guy out of revenge for being spurned by his girlfriend is an interesting concept that could have been intriguing and watchable. Unfortunately the guy doing the seducing looks like he slept under a hedge, which makes his appeal highly unlikely, added to which there are endless longeurs of wordless sitting around staring into space or at the nearest unremarkable building. Are we supposed to deduce something from this other than when the hell is something going to happen? Didn't it occur to anyone connected with this movie to shift to a different location once in a while? Anyone who has the remote within reach will be hitting the fast forward button many times just to get through the viewing. At an hour and thirty minutes, this movie feels like three hours. The script needs tightening up, the loooooong pauses need editing out and the actors badly need a shave, a change of clothing and a shower. (Did I really just say this? Hell, I BOUGHT this movie so I have a right to express my discontent.) A good idea poorly executed. Like I said, there's a lot of good movies coming out of Argentina, this just isn't one of them.
Thats correct .This is one LONG boring bore.The 2 male leads may be good actors, but they sure do not come over as possible gay lovers.What we have is a 2 maybe 3 reel film DRAGGED out to 103 minutes.The short scenes with actresses are not that good either.How any one could possibly like this is beyond me.The 2 star rating is for a few nice shots of scenery. The film is from Argentina.Films from here are usually much better. I cannot even recommend this as a gay themed movie.
