Ok, you have got to be kidding me. This was just so bad, for any of you that have read the short story... and anyone else with any decency. My good opinions have not diminished in regards to the talent of either actor in either leading role. But this was not love... nor did it come close to gay love. regardless of the time period. The movie was way to negative... everyone was pissed off, the only mellow characters were the sheep! comon two stars at best.
Brokeback is a love story at its finest...it`s subtle but it hits you hard when u realize that these two men managed to find each other midst the loneliness on the mountains, and yet they`re powerless to do anything about it because of bigots in this world who can`t open up the mind to love.
This was a pretty good movie, not as good as everyone told me it would be, but definitely still worth seeing. A little depressing though, so be warned...
Should not be in main streem media
This is neither a gay movie nor a cowboy movie--it is a love story. And love stories don`t get any better than this. I am still haunted by the raw emotion exemplified by Ennis and Jack, and the agony that each character had to endure. Heath Ledger is a marvel to watch, and deserves every accolade and award that comes his way. Five stars!
This movie is more of a tragedy than a love story. There is a reason why society is falling and it`s because families that make up the foundation of it are collapsing. This movie is a good example of that. It`s really about giving into temptation and abandoning responsability. Very sad.
Blech. Still barfing, just thinking about having been dragged to see this by my girlfriend three days ago.
It is a fabulous film. Jake should recieve an Oscar for this....I especially like the way he chooses films that challenge us to re-think our molds. The film connected the audience with each and every character and their emotional development.
BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN IS ONE OF THE YEARS BEST & MOST BEAUTIFUL FILMS!!!
I just laughed through the entire movie
