Emotional love story that deals with the uncharted, mysterious ways of the human heart
8 February 2006
Love stories come and go, but this one stays with you. Not because both lovers are men, but because their story is so full of life and longing, and true romance. Very genuine and it happened to many men today.

Dilemma faced by two cowboys, Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist. Ennis and Jack, love each other passionately. Yet they can't live together in the Marlboro Country of the 1960s and 1970s, so they try to hide their love behind their heterosexual domesticity. It is also the love itself, which at first seems baffling to these two manly men, as if it were a thing apart, rather than the force that gives meaning to their lives.

So begins a sporadic and tormented affair in which the two meet once or twice a year for fishing trips on which no fish are caught. Jack urges that they forsake their marriages and set up a ranch together. But Ennis, haunted by a childhood memory of his father taking him to see the damaged body of a rancher, tortured and beaten to death with a tire iron for living with another man, is immobilized by fear and shame.

What was not really elaborate was the death of Jack. The wife said he had a flat tire and basically it was an accident but the visual showed that he was beaten to death, the cause, I can't really figure it out. May be you know ...

Constantine (2005)
10/10
Producer Really Made Research
13 February 2005
After watching the movie, I realised that the producer really made a thorough research prior producing the movie. This is because through my own experiences, I have seen some scenes in 'live' and it is truly happened, very logic. My personal favourite scene is through the first scene where Constantine was summoned to get release a teenager from a demon. The set up was very real where I have seen with my own eyes before, the mirror and the ritual.

I think Constantine is the best film in its category and I feel that most scenes could happen in our real life. The sound effect made the whole movie more interesting. More intriguing! Even though there was no obscene scenes or even love making scenes, it is still a very good movie and worth watching. For those ladies who fan Keanu Reeves, you will not disappoint, because I can't see he is kissing any ladies in the movie, unlike Matrix. So, you don't have to be jealous.

Good story and well presented.
30 April 2001
A very touching story and should be watched by everybody. The best part of it is you can value a person's love which is very precious and should not be wasted. The moral of the story, don't be too enjoyed with your victory or popularity and you may forget about who you are, originally. Once you are married, try to balance it with your career and your personal life.
