5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, Funny, Sad, 5 Jan 2005

By	"8lettersuk" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Latter Days [2003] (REGION 1) (DVD)

I wanted to watch this film again immediately it had finished. It was funny and sad in equal amounts. I haven't cried watching a film in years but this one had me bawling towards the end.
Steve Sandvoss plays the shy yet interested young man very well. Wes Ramsey too plays the shallow gay man on the scene and puls off the look. Great to see Jacqueline Bisset playing a good role again too.
The film highlights a number of points which is that gay men are often more concerned about looks and that maybe we all do look towards the door for something better to come along.
I recommend this film to everyone - although I guess if you are Mormon you may have to get through some barriers before seeing the merits of the film.

Despite it's low budget this film shines out from a lot of mediocre releases from hollywood last year.

4.0 out of 5 stars A film with unexpected depth and emotions, 20 Mar 2006

By	H. R. Trigg "howietUK" (Swindon, Wilts United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Latter Days [2003] (REGION 1) (DVD)

(See synopsis above)
This is a very touching and wonderful film about a promiscuous gay man Christian (Wes Ramsey) who makes a bet with his friends that he will sleep with one of the Mormon boys, Aaron, who has moved into his block. Yet the more Christian gets to know Aaron (played beautifully by Steve Sandvoss) the more he realises what a superficial and shallow life he leads, and begins to fall in love with the Mormon lad (who is suppressing his homosexual tendencies). Once the ‘church’ finds out about Aaron’s sexuality, he not only has to deal with his own issues with being gay but also the repercussions within his Mormon family and church. This film really surprised me; it’s got a real heart to it, and deals with the subject matter in a sensitive and respectful way. I must admit to shedding some tears during the film and it’s the kind of film you can watch over and over.

4.0 out of 5 stars Boldly goes - or attempts to boldy go... and achieves indeed, 7 April 2006

By	K. I. Quintyne "kianq" (Dublin , IRELAND) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Latter Days [2003] (REGION 1) (DVD)

Interesting and unique tale about over-coming prejudice!!!

Delightful, fresh and insightful look at the boy-boy movie... welcome to the new century... the storyline is good, and has been properly thoughtout and reaches a great conclusion...

It somewhat hampered by the fact the leads are abit wooden in their performances, but this can be overlooked as the supporting ladies(no less - the strong-willed boss, the deluded & demented mother and the ever faithful and dutiful faghag) all give tour de force outings...

Special mention of Miss Bisset - she still has it!!! And looks great, and it is true testiment to her talents...

Would recommend this to most - not as a traditional movie, but a novel take on a rarely explored avenue... and it delivers, even if the leads appear overwhelmed by the gravity of the work they performing...

** The extras on the DVD are intersting - and might colour your view on future watching of the movie, as I think the leads are trying hard... to be terribly macho!!!
