If you knew your love would someday kill the one you love, what would you do differently?

STORY: Two college guys who are very close friends come to love one another before tragedy strikes. This is a short BL story, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Happy ending.

ACTING/CAST: The guy playing Paul is just super cute. They did a fine job acting.

MUSIC: Uh, no idea. Too busy watching.

REWATCH VALUE: Yes. Such a neat short story. I hope to share it with friends.

OVERALL: A neat story, kinda like The Butterfly Effect. Hope you got 30 minutes to spare, it's worth it.

STORY: The details cover it well. The story-telling is fast-paced, uneven, and disjointed. If it had a proper movie length, maybe they could have done a whole lot more. There are some cute moments, lots of moments with no dialog, an in-movie summary just before the end which, according to the length of this video, was silly; seriously, we just watched those scenes a few minutes ago and now you're wasting precious screen time showing us them again?

ACTING/CAST: They're cute guys. That's about all this movie has going for it.

MUSIC: Meh.

REWATCH VALUE: Nah. Might recommend a friend see it if he's got a spare hour to kill.

OVERALL: Nothing more than cute guys and the little BL on the side.

With a title like this, you can imagine how it ends. And even the opening scene tells you how it's going to end... but please read on...

STORY: After relocating to Beijing, a young man (Yu Hao) searches for a job and ends up being a model, then he and the artist (Wang Feng) fall in love. I really liked that this is a nice drama involving two adult men and there were a lot of romantic moments. I really got the sense of their deep love for each other without the stereotypical seme/uke nonsense. They showed love and respect to one another. That made it worth watching this for me. Of course, no story could be all sunshine and rainbows. A bigoted family member causes strife for a while. The ending is sad but ambiguous. I suppose it's up to interpretation.

ACTING/CAST: The chemistry between the couple was amazing. As I said before, it looked like they loved each other deeply. They were on the same level. Also, the actor playing Yu Hao is hot.

MUSIC: Nothing memorable and the Chinese lyrics weren't translated.

REWATCH VALUE: I might watch it again but with a friend this time.

OVERALL: I knew by the title it wouldn't end well, but the romance made it worthwhile.

STORY: * BL and GL themes * This is not a continuation of the movie but a series remake. It starts out with a clear plot: Save the Swim Club! But the plot wanders a lot and gets lost.

ACTING/CAST: You'll recognize much of the cast from other Thai series.

MUSIC: The theme song and its lyrics are good, and it was English Subbed (at least later episodes).

REWATCH VALUE: Maybe a BL cut but otherwise not really.

OVERALL: There are hot bodies and some funny moments, and the second BL couple is also cute. I was disappointed in the overall lack of direction.

Episodes are English-subbed by Part Time Subbers (Thanks guys!).

STORY: The details cover it well but there's no real GL to speak of in this, it's BL. Basically, the main straight couple's relationship is threatened because the guy likes another guy. Ah, another straight guy turned gay while dating a straight girl. This show tries to pass this off with the line: "There is no right or wrong in love." Cheating is bad; don't care the reason.

ACTING/CAST: They performed well, and could summon big tears when needed.

MUSIC: Standard.

REWATCH VALUE: I saw an English-dubbed but the video quality was horrendous and I didn't care for this story, so no. Moving on.

OVERALL: Straight guy turned gay and cheating on his GF; if this appeals to you...

STORY: This was a real nice movie about the unique bond of love between brothers. I also liked that there was an established long-term relationship between Ek and his boyfriend. The story can seem to be slow-paced in parts but the warm interactions between the brothers made it worthwile. The ending is somber but not overly sad though I did shed a tear.

ACTING/CAST: All were professional about their work but I really thought Damrongsakkul Ingkarat (Young Oat) did a great job being only 12 at the time.

MUSIC: It was OK but not memorable.

REWATCH VALUE: Maybe with a friend.

OVERALL: A well-done coming-of-age movie. The cinematography was excellent.

Leia Mais

STORY: This is a fantastic and funny buddy comedy. Some parts were downright hilarious. There's also a big sex scene in it, no doubt the reason why it's rated MATURE, though there's no frontal nudity. I liked that it had a very realistic ending and yet was still a happy one.

ACTING/CAST: I'm always amazed at how actors can bare it all for their parts, and this is especially brave of them in the LGBT Korean climate. Bravi!

MUSIC: Good

Rewatch Value: Sure, I'll watch it again. It's fun.

OVERALL: I loved that this was a fun view into the lives of a group of gay friends in Korea.

STORY: This is a redemption story about the older brother trying to eventually make things right with his younger brother. The first part of the movie was kind of confusing but towards the end a lot of things are revealed and explained so that it makes so much sense. By the end, the feels were there for the whole family and the two brothers. It was definitely worth the wait.

ACTING/CAST: Every one of the cast was great, and the dancing and choreography was excellent. Those boys were great.

MUSIC: Oh yeah, good music. I really like the song that they dancers sang.

REWATCH VALUE: I may, I may not.

OVERALL: It's a K-Drama, of course it's good. Confusing at first but ends great. (No BL)

STORY: A romcom where the guy chases the girl. There are some side plots that were pointless and probably didn't need to be there (the stalker). This story also suffers from the Let's-not-talk-seriously-for-more-than-five-minutes-so-we-can-misunderstand-each-other-the-whole-episode form of communication. It was way overused; a sign of poor writing. If these people simply talked stuff out it would have saved heartaches. There are some LGBT themes in this, specifically LG and T were represented.

ACTING/CAST: I liked Udomsilp Sutatta in Hormones the Series as Toei, unfortunately she plays the exact same character in this: the girl that is so dense and clueless about boys that she can't tell when he's into her and spends the entire series misunderstanding EVERYTHING.

MUSIC: I liked the music, and it's always fun when they have a concert in these shows.

REWATCH VALUE: Maybe. The hilarious scenes had me laughing hard. But, since this story is recycled into Senior Secret Love: Puppy Honey, I might rewatch that instead.

OVERALL: Romantic, some of it was super funny, can be slow in parts, and frustrating (communication issues), but it was worth watching.

Leia Mais

STORY: Uh... This movie is a manga in movie form. It's quite bizarre. The movie even has scenes in it that present it as manga. Basically it's about a wormhole that keeps transporting various things into this guy's house, including a police officer from Taiwan; also has a missing persons mystery. It is campy in some spots, kinda humorous.

ACTING/CAST: Um... yeah. Well the three leads were cute. Everything about this production is weird so I have no idea how to rate the acting.

MUSIC: Well... there is some but lots of scenes with none.

REWATCH VALUE: I doubt it but I'll give it to a friend.

OVERALL: You'd have to see this movie yourself. It does deserve to be watched once if nothing more than to satisfy curiosity. This must have been a cinch to translate to English; the dialog is sparse. It's like a manga with many panels of looks, stares, and such, with minimal dialog--you know what I mean if you read manga. The ending is neutral; neither happy nor sad, just ends.

STORY: Two guys from school meet before Driver's Ed and become fast friends. This movie felt pretty low budget. What I really liked about this movie was the ending. A lot of things happen in this movie and it is all explained in the end. There are some sweet moments; especially in the restaurant with the cards they write on...SO romantic.

ACTING/CAST: Both are cute guys and they do a good job. In fact, all the cast did fine. Nothing stellar but adequate for the story.

MUSIC: I was amazed at the music line-up they had for this They had Union J, Adam Lambert, Norah Jones, Neil Sedaka, Ronghao Li, and others. Certainly a surprise considering the audio was uneven and many times you could hear the wind blowing into the microphones or it sounded like the audio was being recorded from a phone.

REWATCH VALUE: Maybe. As I said, the ending was neat, but the overall audio/video quality is annoying.

OVERALL: Nice story with some good scenes and a sweet, romantic ending. There are also outtakes during/after the credit roll.
