Thumbs down Brokeback Mounting

Just got back from watching this film. Unfortunately I forced my girlfriend to watch 50 cents film, which she hated, so as payback I got forced to watch this. Oh my god!!! It is soooooutterly crap I cannot begin to describe it. How it ever got all those good reviews and award nominations I just don't know.
Pretty much NOTHING happens in the entire 2 hour film. Its just talking and mostly silence and the occasional country music. Even if it was about a man and a woman it would still be as pathetic. The fact that it had 2 men going it at it made it even worse.

If you have not seen this film, then I seriously suggest you keep it that way.
My girlfriend admitted afterwards that she thought it was utter tosh too.

Anyone watch it and actually enjoy it?

Thumbs down Bareback Mounting

When I caught a brief glimpse of the trailer I thought "cool, a cowboy film". Then I heard about the plot.

....I didn't go to see it.

Ah - the film otherwise known as "Bareback Mounting" by a couple of gay friends! LOL

Can't say they exactly sold the film to me as a "must see"!

Don't films actaually get awards from those IN the film industry?

And what is the sexual persuasion of about 80% of the film industry?

Went to see this with a new bird last night (planned to see munich which I wanted to see but she was keen on bumback mountain and I wanted to get laid so she won )

I can't see how on earth it has had so much good press, ok its put together quite well, superb camera work (place reminds me of lake louise), and some very difficult issues tackled. Overall ok film and can see why certain types would like it so much.

Sex scenes are horrific for a straight male

So you won't be able to tell us if she fancied being the daddy put on her cowboy boots, assless leather chaps and a bandana, whipped out her fave strap-on and went looking for your rusty sheriffs badge then?

Nice!

Clever too: going to see that film may increase your chances of getting laid in two ways:

1) It shows your sensitive side (and indicates you're comfortable with your sexuality)
2) The sight of two men at it may turn her on.

UNFORTUNATELY

You won't be able to get the image out of your head if you do get lucky later!

On the plus side, if you agreed to watch that with her, then I think its only fair that she watches lesbian addicts vol 23 with you!!

Any film that gets rave reviews and huge amounts of advanced PR like this usually is an arty farty luvvies movie.

lets face it it could have been grass growing, if the luvvies give it the thumbs, it would be at the oscar nominations

another one i shant go and see



Mart

Can never grasp this at all. I'm very comfortable with my own sexuality and don't consider myself homophobic, but I would never go and watch a film knowing full well it's about male botty bashing.

Then again I never watch films, let alone go to a cinema and watch them.

Lets just hope that someone in Hollywood makes a film about the beauty of love between 2 women.

Lesbian DEA officers? Their crooked as hell, doing more drugs than the criminals and indeed doing each other.

I'd give that film an oscar!

I suppose they are all raving about it because is appears to be PC to openly praise such twaddle. As soon as someone "comes out" in public it seems to be a signal for an instant round of applause!

If people want to do that sort of thing good luck to them and keep it to themselves, but I really don't feel as though I would want to put up with a film about it.
