Under Promised & Over Delivered! Very Enjoyable! December 25, 2007 C. E. Smith (Central Maryland) I read several reviews written here prior to watching this movie. Most of the negative comments pertained to the technical aspects of the film...the abrupt scene endings, some scene lighting etc. As a result, I did not watch the movie with great expectations but in the end I was pleasantly surprised! Nice story line and I found all the characters very believable. In fact, the mother, as eccentric as she is, reminds me of someone who is virtually the same way! All the actors and actresses are very easy on the eyes. The love scenes were not explicit, nor did they need to be...I just prefer love scenes to show a little more skin and to be a bit hotter than these were. That is just my personal preference and why I rated it 4 stars instead of 5. There were a couple of issues that were inferred but not completely clear, like the relationship the brother (Shawn) had with his friend. I think there were gay undertones in that friendship. You will have to decide from what you see. Perhaps that was the Director's intent, to show the conflict the mother has with the daughter...would have been the same with the son had his friend lived. Thought provoking. Overall, a very enjoyable movie. Don't think it is one I would keep to add to a collection, but it was a nice way to kill 90 minutes.
My 1st Lesbian Movie June 13, 2007 ecugrad (Greenville, NC USA) To add to the mixed reviews about this movie, I'm glad this was my first lesbian movie that I've seen because it portrayed a strong connection between the two characters Casey and Alex that speaks to my personal desire. I think their strong intimacy really stood out to me and was tastefully portrayed in the "sex" scene. Listening to the commentary (a feature on the DVD) during this scene helps the viewer understand that the producer's intention was not to show a graphic sex scene but a scene of lovemaking between a couple that has been together for a while and shows a strong emotional and physical bond. The scene is a prelude to what happens next which we can all imagine on our own (although I wouldn't have objected seeing some more of that scene!) Nina is great as well as the water scenes of Massachusetts!
Time ill spent.... August 13, 2006 Hunter400 (New York, NY USA) 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
Ladies, are we so devoid of decent lesbian flicks that we will just devour anything they throw our way? The only bright spot in this horrible mess is Nina Landey. The editing is horrible, the acting is truely sub-par: although given what they had to work with.... This movie represents 2 hours of my life that I will never get back...EVER!

The movie is okay, but not great. The couple is believable, but the problem family is overdone. Mom is just a little too much and the whole situation is a little unreal. The lead characters aren't quite up to being leads. Almost, but not quite. Overall, it was slow but a good try.
Decent movie, bad editing March 13, 2006 M. Bargelski (Philadelphia, PA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
All the scenes would just get cut at the end, the transformation to each new scene was really bad. Otherwise the film had a good story, good actors. My favorite was the straight friend from out of town, she was great. This film could have been really good with better editing and better music.
