90 minutes into this film you think, surely, there's no way this adult love story ends with the lead singing a song at a prom considering neither character is a teenager, teacher, singer, and no prom has been mentioned thus far -- strap in.

kigoeMay 16, 2025I kinda love that the theatre was full to the brim, because I feel like most times I’m seeing a queer film that isn’t the case. I was really rooting for this movie, but it fundamentally does not work. Writer-director Max Talisman stars as Zach A, who falls in love with…

I really wish this was better because I think it's important to support small films and even more important to support small LGBTQIA+ films, but this movie isn't good. It actually gets worse and more cringe as it goes on.

It’s cheesy and I probably would have liked it less if it wasn’t a gay couple, so I already liked that. And because it’s short I didn’t mind the cheesiness. It was definitely just okay though and could have been better sure with maybe better acting but it got the job done.

The writer Zack was not good actor, for this level movie I think he should a little more practice for his acting level.

Wishes the plot was better. Not enough for a climax and endinf
AOAshley odonnellCute concept and some good parts, but the plot was all over the place. A lot of useless dialogue.
MBMichael Barabashinteresting take on the whole rom-COM thing... not entirely stero typical. casting, ok. writing could have been better.
