Pass on Brokeback Mountain

Rating: 3/10 (26 December 2005)

I was disappointed with the movie. The story behind the movie is very powerful but I was not impressed with the character development, plot, acting, or emotion of the movie. The scenes with Jake and Heath are not natural and it shows. Jake gets the closest to demonstrating real emotion in the movie. It is too bad it misses the target. Those in the theater were more touched by the humor of the movie than the tragedy of the male love story. That tells me that the movie missed the mark.
Maybe society is ready for a gay cowboy movie but this movie fails to deliver. Don't pay full price for this one or the only tears you shed will be for the money you wasted seeing this movie at full price.
