Mr. Right (UK)

The primary concept of this movie is that a woman introduces her boyfriend to her gay friends and that makes him gay--is just sketched at. Essentially, we're observing her friends and their friends and their various respective lovers as they interact. It goes through 6 different people, their lives and interactions. Harry hates being a TV producer and dreams of leaving his job to travel the world. He loves Alex, an aspiring actor who is struggling to create an identity for himself as a performer. Alex lives with Harry who takes care of him. He is yet to find out that he sucks at acting but he is a very very good cook. Rugby player William's nine-year-old daughter is intent on sabotaging his relationships with new boyfriends. She thinks when a new man enters her dad's life, her importance will reduce. This prevents William to let Lawrence get into his life. Lawrence is a famous TV soap star whom Alex hates. Harry and William are friends. Their 3rd friend is Tom, a not so good looking but a very very successful artist. He keeps Lars who is very handsome who is in the relationship just because of money. Tom is so pathetic that he will excuse his every betrayal so long as Lars doesn't leave him. This despite when Lars tries to make an attempt on Harry too. This brings Harry and Alex to revaluate their relationship. When Alex moves out, he realizes that being a cook gives him more satisfaction. He and Harry get close once again but now Alex feels grown up and wants to be by himself and not someone else take care of him. Harry realizes that it is now time for him to travel the world. On the other hand, by continuous trials, William is successfully able to get a balance with Lawrence and his daughter, Lars leaves Tom who now keeps a new man. Sometime British films specially gay can be as trash as American films. The only difference being that at least the men are good looking. Again the film looked more episodic and TV serial type. Some of the scenes with Alex and his family were the fun parts of the film. Alex's character after a point got very annoying because of his constant talking. Just an alright film. Have seen worse. (4.5/10)

When opening this film made me think the story should have been told from the girls point of view how she knows all of her gay friends and so on. But it does not its told like a normal movie. Which makes it a little odd. After the start you learn about the characters there seems to be a good story line running moving towards a big conflict however at that rise of the conflict I never really felt anything got solved. What happened to the sketch?, Did the actor become an actor? Overall it was an okay story but not one I feel I need to own. Thank you LOGO channel for letting me watch it without having to buy it.

Sei no Gekiyaku (Japanese) [Dangerous Drugs of Sex]

Every person has their own unique way of dealing with loss. This film is as much a psychological thriller as it is a soft porn BDSM portrayal of two young men that makes the film overall horrifying as well as humane. It is really hard to describe the genre of this film in one word. Its important not that the film has some really disturbing scenes so if you go into seeing this film, please proceed with caution.

Drug Shore (Chinese)

Apparently tis film was adapted by a true story Well, true or not, movies/series about drugs are not easy to watch. I have always said that drugs is like the end of life for anyone. For those who sink into this sea of addiction, some manage to swim upstream to recovery, while others cannot make it to the shore. The film may not be the best, but it does have a noble intention to remind everyone of the evil affects of drugs and combining that with sex. Ah Zhe is in a happy relationship with his influencer boyfriend. On his partner's birthday, they end up going to a party, which interestingly is being hosted at a drug dealer's house and this is where for the first time he is exposed to the world of drugs. The duo somehow do it just enough and come back home but next day Ah She gets invited by the dealer Xiao Fei for a meal. The dealer has a soft corner for Ah Zhe, but before anyone realizes, Ah Zhe's life spirals out of control when slowly he starts doing more and more drugs, ...

The Shortest Distance is Round 3: Fallen Flowers

Continuing with the weird trilogy of "The Shortest Distance", I am so glad that finally I am done with part 3 and won't have to deal with this again in future. Thankfully, as of now the makers have not announced any further parts; which will save all of us on this earth from the embarrassment of watching this in near future. After the first 10 minutes are used in sort of recapping bits of first two parts, the story moves forward. Haruto is now starting to have feelings for Ruka, the mysterious pole dancer from second part. In a fit of rage, Ruka ends up killing the goat man and to save him and Haruto, Shibahara asks them to go underground. Meanwhile Shibahara continues the search for Seiya (the guy who had cut off Haruto's penis). It turns out Seiya is now also taking care of the original club owner from part 1. Both of them were released after they had informed Shibahara of Aoyama's secret location. Shibahara tortures Seiya's boyfriend leading to Seiya killin...
