Gay People Are Seldom This Boring

Rating: 3/10 (4 March 2006)

This movie was like watching ice melt. On a thirty-three degree day. "Far From Heaven" covered a lot of the same territory in a much more interesting fashion. Jake G lost his accent when he gained his mustache and never really found a character. Heath was amazing but had nothing around him to stick it to (if you'll excuse the expression). This was a long, boring movie with about twenty minutes of plot stretched out to over two hours. I'm glad this film has resonated with the mainstream to this extent, but...it's not very good. I know the theme is supposed to be repression and nothing really is supposed to happen, but nothing could happen in a lot shorter time. This made the Hulk look good and...the Hulk was bad. Maybe if the Hulk were a gay cowboy....
