Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Boyfriends and Boy Friends
Co-writers/directors Tom Hunsinger and Neil Hunter conjured this little Indie film in 1996, an examination of relationships among seven gay men that not only impresses as a non-exploitive, honest sociologic study of life in the 90s in England, it also is a film that is a healthy mix of humor and tenderness that stands up well more than ten years later.

Rating: - relationships 101
Though there is no real plot here; Boyfriends deserves a decent review. It's about the dynamics of three couples getting together for a weekend at a friends cottage in the woods; and the enteraction of the cast.

Drama, but no crisis

Owen (Andrew Ableson) has been dating Matt (Michael Urwin) for three months and thinks he's finally found Mr. Right. Owen brings Matt to the party ... Read More
Rating:  - Insightful film
Many of the other reviewers have called this film boring, but I really, really liked this movie. You have the three couples: Ben and Paul (who have been together for 5 years and have just broken up), Matt and Owen (who have been together for 3 months and it is obvious that Matt loves Owen much more than Owen loves Matt), and Will and Adam who have just had a one night stand but Will wants it to be more and Adam does not. These three couples meet in a country house for Paul's birthday--six months after ... Read More
