Open

This is exactly the kind of mindless braindead gay "comedy" films that I am afraid of ruining my time. I really can't believe that anyone at all will find this film funny by any means, and if people do, then there is definitely something wrong. We need to really make people aware of the difference between trash and good cinema.

David and Kyle are celebrating their 10th year of being together. Taking a clue from one of their other gay couple friends, they decide to maybe try out opening up relationship and make a few set of rules. Only dating, no sex etc etc. Kyle gets an online profile created on a dating app by his sister and meets a couple of weirdos. Meanwhile David is approached by a hot younger student of his and they end up having sex. They both feel odd and decide to put a stop to this open thing. But David is again approached by his hot student and he can't control. Kyle finds them together and they break up. Eventually love is stronger, they both get to their senses and eventually get back together.

I can't believe that this film has won certain awards in a few LGBT film festivals. I mean, who are these people. The acting is terrible for a 2017 film. Right from the very first scene where guests are interacting with the hosts in such a fake way, I knew this is going to be a long film to watch. This film would have been termed amazing had it come out in like 2000, when gay films were just a very rare thing but this kind of product is totally unacceptable. Stereotypical lesbians, wannabe bisexual, a gay couple with no chemistry and seriously, just bad acting overall. I really blame the director for such a hot mess. the story was fine and simple and could have made for a fun film. But this was atrocious. This is part of your regular staple of your campy gay actors and stupid movies that keep getting churned out in US. I think people really need to be exposed to world cinema of today where some of the most amazing stories with central gay characters are being told. I am still in shock as to how can such a film win any award at all.

I would really not recommend this film to anyone at all. This is sheer waste of time. Even my eyes started to hurt by constant rolling of them because of the sheer stupidity that I had to sit and watch. (2.5/10)

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

One Summer Night (Korean)

I really wanted to like this film but for non native speakers, these movie leaves a lot to be understood and the way scenes were unfolding in front of me, I wasn't sure many times what was really going on. The story had potential button getting any back story on any of the characters limited my ability to empathize with any of these actors. Film starts with two North Korea military guys Yong Joon and Jae Sung having sex and they are caught red handed and they run. Three years later we see Yong Joon in Seoul leading a very mundane and poor life. He has a boyfriend Tae-Kyu, who is a weird guy. He is carefree, doesn't do any work and is completely emotional and financially dependent on Young Joon. In fact, even Yong Joon will go to any lengths to protect him , fend for him and taking care of him to the extent of even taking up prostitution. Suddenly one day Jae Sung appears in their life again. His motivation is not clear but it is obvious he wants Yong Joon back in his life, who

Ultimate masturbation: Shigoki no yama (Japanese) [The Ultimate Masturbation]

I would never know what was the point behind making this film. Was it supposed to be a comedy, cos it wasn't. It wasn't even porn. It was just a silly attempt at making something absolutely senseless and ridiculous. The story, as well as direction is equally shoddy. You could laugh for having seen something so bad, but I wouldn't call that comedy. An old man runs a camp about gay masturbation. The explanation given is that gays masturbate for pleasure unlike straight men, for whom the act is seen as shame or because they can't find a woman. One day a straight man shows up and wants to join the camp for his thesis. After discussion, he is allowed in. Rules include that you can masturbate together, you can masturbate one another, but there is no fellatio or anal sex. Some students of course breaks rule. The teacher then talks about 2 forms of masturbation which gives ultimate pleasure. He shows one without touching and then refuses to talk of the other. Somehow suddenly,
