Ratings and reviews

well it seems poor ignorant little Wes is painstakingly going through all the gay themed movies writing his illinformed nonsense ... sad and pathetic considering he no doubt hasn't even watched it..

This movie is incredible in so many ways and I love how it shows people fighting for the LGBT right that they deserve! If you didn't cry during this, you don't have a heart!!! So beautiful!! So heartwarming! #Pride

Another film trying to 'normalise' poor homosexual lifestyle choices.
