Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

GoreWhoreAust Yes 'is it just me' is a well intentioned little film. But when did watching a gay movie become like watching a Christian film, or even worse a Tyler Perry movie! So many gay films of the last 10+ years have been so limp and predictable and this one is no exception. You know exactly what is going to happen and it features the usual gallery of gay indie clichés, the fag-hag, the slutty friend and the dryly funny/ miserable old queen. Thankfully the performances are good and characters likable. Believe me I get it, there's little money in gay cinema and we need our rom-coms too but we need more genre benders like Hellbent and Another Gay Movie, I can't keep watching the same story just to support gay indie films. Shelter did it best, that felt like a 90s movie, the glory days of gay cinema. Is it just me? I don't think so.

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

jryer-962-449447 This one pleasantly surprised me. I am a sucker for the romance films especially when the characters are honest, capable of showing true tenderness, even though they are acting. And this film did not disappoint. Along the lines and similar to the 'Eating Out' series of films, with the sweetness of 'Latter- Days', this film was fun and a pleasant treat.I really liked how Blaine (Nicholas Downs) played his role. His acting was amazing and refreshing. Full of heart and soul I fell in love with him at the start of the film and he carried me through to the end.And then there was Xander (David Loren) This is the first time I have seen him on camera and he captured my heart as well. Besides being incredibly cute with the sexiest accent, this kid can act! Wow, he really played his character with such honesty.These two were truly exceptional and amazing actors. Not discounting the other characters. This film had just the right amount of sexy and sweet. Blaine's roommate is gorgeous!If you are into romance with a comical edge, you must see this film!And if you happen to be alone single dreamer, hoping, wishing for that first or next love, may this film help you see that true love is not about who you are, what you look like, but what's inside that counts.

Havan_IronOak And so is this movie... Uneven that is. There are some great, sweet romantic moments and then there are some that you just have to grit your teeth and endure until the movie gets back to being the kind of sappy love story that you love.Some of the lines are wonderful and the situation is a somewhat cyber-twist on the old Cyrano dilemma, but the main characters are all likable and pretty to look at.I would have rated this movie a bit higher but there are just some plot holes and clunky moments that are impossible to ignore. First, the character of Bob, the editor of USA toGay (Or should that be tooGay?) is grating and way over the top in every scene that he's in. I'm guessing that he must had a hand in financing the film. There's no other excuse that I can think of to let him chew the scenery and to have totally unnecessary scenes in an otherwise charming movie.Second, there's a large plot hole in an otherwise credible storyline in that Xander fails to recognize which guy that he's meeting is Blain after speaking to him on the phone for six hours. This is a plot hole that could have easily been filled in any number of ways. They could have simply chatted on-line for six hours, they could have shortened the length of time, they could have complained about the phone connection; but gimme a break. After speaking with someone on the telephone for six hours one would recognize a voice, and if not a voice, at least an inflection and manner of speaking.However, overall one can chalk those plot holes up to this being a low-budget film and continue to enjoy the story. I'd recommend this film to friends and would even enjoy seeing it again. I'll just have to fast forward past Bob.
