Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Toby Nathan What an interesting little film. Finally we have a gay film that doesn't revolve around coming out, AIDS, or circuit parties. This is a film about real people with real problems that everybody can relate to -- gay or straight. The film has a real documentary type feel which adds to the realism. The cast is super and totally naturalistic. It's such a relief to see actors in a gay film that look like real, attractive people instead of steroid-Weho-circuit-boys. The film is all the better for it. Sure the dialogue is a bit stilted at times, but kudos to the writer/director for trying something a little different here -- and actually hitting the nail on the head in the process.

Jon Not good. Not the worst thing I've ever seen, either. It's just a dull, amateurish effort, where the writer thought that the most realistic the dialogue, the better. (Not true. Try leaving a tape recorder on for a couple of hours when you're having a heart-to-heart with a friend. Just don't make me listen to the result.) Drift has a couple of fresh points--first, it deals with the pain of breakup, and avoids the horrible cliché of "coming out" stories or overly sunny romantic discovery. It's very realistic, and prefers understatement to emotional shouting.But that latter point is also its downfall. It is dull. The gambit of three possible endings cannot save it. The main character is a self-pitying neurotic, and as time went on, I lost all interest in him. Save your money.

harry-76 This little scenario scripted by Quentin Lee plays like a merry-go-round. As lovers love, break up, reunite, have misgivings, rekindle, and entertain more regrets, the viewer begins to wonder just what point Lee is trying to make.A key may be the tentative nature of the title. It's also set in a town where lots of folk are in a state of flux, not really settling down after making a commitment, and forever looking for the "perfect" partner.The search, however, is as fickle as the atmosphere of the terrain itself, where the consciousness can be a jumble of mixed emotions. Unanchored attitudes prevail, reacting to the mass of humanity crowded into the region, from mid-state down to the southern border.It's not an ideal place for anyone who isn't strongly grounded in both their self worth and professional projects. The tragedy of this story is that there are no solid anchors, only driftwood floating and bobbing along uneven tides. One day wanting this, tomorrow that. Unfortunately, Mr. Lee's script rather meanders as well, and allows itself to even take a "Memento"-type turn midway through--with unprepared for flashbacks that have a strange feel. There's nothing wrong with the acting, though, and the youthful cast renders subtle and heartfelt performances.

amwarren I found Drift to be a highly unsatisfying and poorly put-together movie. I did not enjoy Drift at all. I thought that the movie was poorly written, acted and directed. I also am not a fan of the use of Digital Video to tell this story. Since D.V. is such an intimate medium, better actors and a better script are needed to make this movie successful. I appreciate anyone who has the courage and creativity to make a feature film. I applaud your effort, I just don't agree with the praise this movie has received.
