Alicia I love this movie so much
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
hjames-97822 Tread carefully, but I don't think I'm giving anything out here that can be considered a spoiler.It's OK. I watched it on a Sunday afternoon, and it was a nice diversion. Five stars because everyone is making an effort here. It just never quite makes it. Like morning biscuits that didn't bake long enough.The young but inexperienced cast is clearly putting out the effort here. Do any of them have a real future beyond community theater? Probably not. But, as Jack Benny used to say, everyone needs some place to be bad. Well they are not bad. Just not professionals. At least not yet.The real problem here isn't the cast however. Or even the premise of the story. It's the screenplay. It's screen writing 101 at community college. Some of the dialog Rin Tin Tin couldn't bark his way through. Many of the situations (ably described in other reviews) are lame and totally improbable. (An aggravation surcharge for coffee?) Still, not bad if you have nothing else to do.
Ivan Corr It's not like I'm super critical by nature, but this movie is really awful. One and a half hours of my life I will never get back.First thing, so called actors in this movie wouldn't not recognize acting even if it bit them in the nose.Plot is super simplistic and so naive, like something a six-year-old would write. The characters do not seem to be real people, but more exaggerated stereotypes of gay men, more like caricatures really. The acting is really stiff and unbelievable, and the best part in the movie is played by the dog Bijoux (honestly, it is).If you feel like wasting your time, then feel free to watch this, but surely you would spend your time better if you stared at the same dot on the ceiling instead of watching this movie.
jerrywarriner I won't repeat the details, which have been provided by other reviewers.It's far too easy and common to dismiss gay films as stereotypical depictions of gay characters and their relations to one another. That's like criticizing Cary Grant's romantic characters as stereotypically heterosexualThe film is populated by gay men who can be found in droves in real life, and the situations are not at all uncommon.Men like Blaine can be romantic, shy, sweet, put off by men who are too aggressive or fearful of rejection.The Camerons of the gay milieu are the opposite: full of themselves, firm in the belief they can "have" anyone and/or sexual athletes.Xander typifies the middle ground. Nevertheless, most men have a combination of attributes and are hard to pigeonhole. I was struck by the first scene in the coffee shop. Blaine is dismissed rudely by the gay man behind the counter. Yet, when Xander asks for the same beverage, because of his looks, the server is effusively friendly and gives him free coffee.I've witnessed or heard of many similar incidents, when waiters, salesmen and others have been neglectful, abrasive or dismissive of customers who don't meet their standards of male pulchritude.I'm not a big fan of gay cinema, but I enjoyed "Is It Just Me?" It's well acted and directed. Good music, too
Michael Just saw this film at the NC Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, and I was shocked to see it only got 5/10 starts on here. I have to say this is at *least* 9 stars! As far as the "gay movie" genre goes, you can't go into one expecting Casablanca. The plot is not earth-shattering, and honestly it gets a bit hokey at times (maybe it got dragged out a bit too long). That said, this film is definitely on the top of my list of great gay movies! Bruce Gray really steals the show with his Ernie character; the audience was in stitches during all of his scenes. The ending made it all worth while, it may even bring a little tear to your eye. Absolutely fits the definition of "charming" :-)
