Go see this movie!

Rating: 9/10 (9 January 2006)

There are so many really good films out in theatres right now, but if you haven't already done so, I highly suggest seeing this one. Basically, when you sit in your seat you already know that they're gay cowboys that get married to women later on, but the story is truly captivating. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal don't talk for roughly the first ten minutes of film, except to say their names, so all that the audience is really left with is the beautiful scenery and anticipation of when they're going to hook up (since we know that they will). It's not unbelievable that they do get together, either, as they're left with only each other for weeks and it just seems plausible at the time. When they do...well, it's not rated R for nothing. The rest of the movie is really well done, and it's difficult to really explain the plot. And then it suddenly ends. I was sitting in my seat going "Huh?" for a few minutes until I realized, "Yeah that was actually a good ending". I've recommended it to everyone that I've talked to, to go and see this movie. It deserves some credit and recognition amongst the academy, and I hope they get it. Hope this helps!
