VividSimon Simply Perfect

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Nhat Duc I came across this show through a suggestion on a site and I grew total fond of it. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm not gay, so you can quit with the "only gay people like this show" judgement because it's not true. I am just so convinced by the incredible plot that really made me believe that there is chemistry going on in there from what I saw.I really look forward to seeing how Patrick and Kevin resolve their problem or how it ends for them in a much more prolonged process, not just in a two hour special that will just dodgily untie all knots, which will eventually ruin the whole quality of the show that the two seasons have built up throughout the past couple of years.

Tom Dooley Made by HBO this has quality written all over it. Based in San Francisco we meet three gay friends Patrick, Augustin and Dom. They are all at the ages when life becomes more serious which normally coincides with your options getting ever limited. Dom is a waiter about to turn forty and he really wants to be his own boss and meet that certain someone. Patrick makes video games and is single but sometimes lacking belief in his own talent. He also has a new boss and he is not only young, good looking but English.Then Augustin has met that special someone and set up home but seems to be pressing the self destruct button in everything he does almost as if he can't bear the thought of having it all. The three of them have their separate hills to climb and each other for support. This is the beginning of their stories.This is just brilliant a rival to the original 'Queer as folk' and it does have some sex based scenes but this is not a porn fest at all. It is all about relationships, life, dreams and the harsh realities of life. There are some great performances here – actually there is not one bad one. I loved seeing Scott Bakula as a special guest and also Russell Tovy keeping the Brit end up – if you will forgive the pun. They have made a second series too so hopefully this is one that is here to stay – at least for a while.

Robert McGee As a gay man, this show is so moving. It doesn't give us the usual stereotypes of what people think gay men are like, but rather what real gay men, and real people are. It is beautifully written, and the acting is just incredible. As a man approaching thirty, I relate so much to the characters and their struggles with love, friendship, and life. One of the best, and most realistic, series I have seen on television in a long time. Each character was so different from the next. All struggling with their own issues, and learning to cope with all the curve balls life throws at you. By far my favorite show on TV during its run. I highly recommend it to any gay man or woman, or anyone trying to understand our community a little better. We're more than what the media makes us out to be. We are human. And this show showed that unlike any other.

dejan-g This is really a great TV show. There aren't any clichés, the characters are real and so is the story. I think if anybody says that this series is bad I think they do so because of the lack of many erotic scenes ( although there actually are some!). My advice is just go watching porn or Queer is folk! I mean Queer is folk is OK, but "Looking" is more realistic, it is as if you watched one of the thousands straight shows but just with gay actors and a gay story. It is about normal guys and even normal lives, it is not about drama queens, clubbing, drugs etc. A TV show which I like to watch after work and which relaxes me. I'm so glad that HBO has created this series, I'm looking forward to watch the second season and see if Patrick and Kevin will come together! I think this is the main storyline of the show and it is so damn romantic.
