This is the second vertical AI BL drama I've sat through, and honestly I went in knowing better. I had it on while I was doing cardio at the gym, and what struck me was just how much the plot echoed the last one I watched. Same step brother romance angle, same mystery girlfriend showing up near the end, same extra guy pining after one of the leads. Genuinely the only thing going for it was the runtime, the whole thing wrapped up in forty five minutes flat. The setup kicks off with Finn moving schools because his mom just married into money. He finds out his new step brother Aiden goes to the same place, and he's warned to keep his distance from him. Their first run in at school is rocky, just like you'd expect, but there's this odd pull between them neither can shake off. Finn keeps telling himself not to read into it because Aiden's straight and openly homophobic. Things shift when some kids start bullying Finn and the student council president, Ryan, steps in to ...
What was the whole point of making this film really!!I don't understand why writers would write something so bad (which doesn't even deserve a short film format) and then someone will actually fund and make almost a 2 hour movie where literally nothing is going on.
Rolf is depressive 50 plus year old man who wants t o be in relationships and has been in a few but doesn't like being alone. His half-sister seems to be his only friend and doesn't have good relations with his parents. H meets Thomas online, another 57 year old man and soon they hot it off well with each other. Thomas is a well read, successful guy and many times Rolf feels he is not unto Thomas' standard. The next 90 minutes are around the two men spending time together talking random shit about books and politics and other stuff. As expected, a couple of times misunderstandings happen but they stick together. Eventually they decide to go for a trip, which gets Rolf super excited but suddenly A day before that Thomas dies of cardiac arrest leaving Rolf alone.
You would think this is a sad love story but it really isn't. Its annoying, if anything. Two very dull people get together (nothing wrong with that) and get know one another; but why torture audience with such a boring storyline. I mean if the two could find someone in one another, good for them, but there was not one single things that as interesting in either of them as individuals or in their relationship as well. It was boring with a capital B. The actors were o doing their job but it was the awful story and direction and of course the dialogues. The dialogues felt very bookish and not something normal people talk (unless the version Is aw had terrible subtitles). Many scenes in the film made no sense, like Rolf's interactions with his boos or his parents. Completely avoidable. (1/10)
