Diagonaldi Very well executed
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
wescarpenter-48666 Boy Meets Girl is the first older film that I reviewed because I received the DVD recently, it came out in 2014. I would have to say that the film has some simple clichés, but it does some of the realities of transgender women in the south. The breakout star of the film was Michelle Hendley was perfect and I hope she gets more work soon. This film can be great film for parents to watch when there child comes out as transgender and it will help some come to term who their child was always supposed to be. I was shocked that this film was not nominated for any Golden Globes. The period setting was perfect when it comes to the costumes. Hair styling, and cars. I felt a powerful connection to this film because I am pre-male to female transgender woman and I currently live in the south currently. This film could have been ten minutes shorter. I hope there will be more transgender films to come including about transgender women of color as well religious transgender women. I believe this film is twenty minutes too long. I am giving this film 9 and ½ stars out of 10.
harinicd The Best Trans Genre Movie i have watched so far Michelle Hendley is so beautiful and the Nude scene was so perfect,Life is so short - live it as per your likeness that the perfect words to say I regret my the timeI Have wasted all these years hope it goes wellGood Movie to watchSeriously an award winning film
Not War (NotWar) Spoiler free. Be aware that it is not a requirement to like a film just because of its subject matter. I went into this film thinking I'd be watching a fun rom-com that was especially different to the usual fare, in that the female lead was a trans character and a trans actress which is a brilliant step towards wider acceptance in film.What I got instead was a fairly sub standard film that didn't entirely work - be it due to the average acting ability of some of the characters; the lacklustre attempt to explain large chunks of the story and why things were suddenly happening; the relatively boring plot or the cartoonishly evil additional characters who were there only to serve as recipients of zingers that I felt someone had written as responses to someone who had upset them in the past.Of course if you're not looking for a coherent storyline and interesting fleshed out characters then I assume this will be the film for you. After all due to the large amount of 10 out of 10 rating which I find laughable - I get the impression this film could have been worse and people would have rated it top marks regardless due to the subject matter, which isn't right - just because something is trying to convey a positive message about a certain subject - doesn't mean it's automatically the greatest thing in the world that surpasses criticism. If I can find a way to post a spoiler review I can go into details about why this film fell flat for me.
Michael Radny This is a truly genuine and affectionate film like no other I've seen. The story is so original and lovely, so bitter and so sweet, that this beautiful romantic film is like the cliché free rom-com that we were asking for. The acting is phenomenal, the storyline is a heartwarming love triangle and the affection between the characters is so effective that you begin to fall in love with what you are viewing. Nothing is better than a true love film that makes you tear up and feel all funny inside. This is the adult themes version of The Notebook, and maybe even better, that beckons for attention in this closed minded world. One, if not, the best romantic films that I have ever seen.
