SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Tom Dooley The plot here is that two friends are walking around talking about sex and sexuality. One is supposedly straight and the other decidedly gay. The latter seems to have been around the block a bit and orally gratified nearly all their erstwhile acquaintances. We also have an impending apocalypse.We get to hear their stories in flash back and the sexual tension is palpable through out. It is funny as there is not any real sex that I can recall. It is a really nice film about the awakenings of sexual desire – the possibilities of youth and that time in your life when you trade secrets with a close friend. I really enjoyed this.It would have been a good film without the 'end of the World' backdrop but that may have been there to give added immediacy to the plot and make the sudden sexual curiosity and openness more urgent. In Spanish with good sub titles this is a well made, acted and thoughtful film that I can recommend.

fromdecatur-10126 I really enjoyed this movie. The two lead actors are excellent in their roles. One friend is gay and one is straight, both seem to have genuine affection for each other, and they spend the day together as the end of the world approaches. There is a current of sexual tension as they talk about blowjobs and finally the gay friend asks the straight friend to take his virginity in a certain way (despite being rather promiscuous, there is something he's never felt comfortable with any of his partners to do). There are flashback of their respective sexual/romantic lives. Amid a sense that people in general are giving up on their ties to each other, these two young men demonstrate a deep friendship. The movie doesn't resolve itself in any trite or obvious way, though there is resolution to the film. The straight friend is bemused by the day and thinking about getting to be with his girlfriend as things come to an end; the gay guy is feeling great warmth towards his friend but doesn't lapse into that unrequited love thing, which is refreshing. I felt really sad at the end of the movie and then I felt really good.
