Very overrated film

Rating: 5/10 (7 April 2006)

Brokeback Mountain can look like a good film. From a technical standpoint, its pretty well done.
But all the hype and glowing reviews from a mostly liberal and pro-gay media only came about because the story was about two men who had gay sex. That's it.
There's nothing really remarkable about Brokeback Mountain. Its not a love story and in fact it seems to be anti-love. Both the main characters betray their families and reject those who do love them.
The plot is somewhat dull and the overall feel of the film is depressing.
