This film is a mess. There is no other way to put.
How sympathetic I found the idea of a film discussing the confusion of sexual identity, the frustration of falling in love with a dear friend and the debating on friendship versus falling in love, there is very little sympathetic about this movie.
I had hoped for a funny delighted adventure in the lives of these college students. And it starts off well but turn into a mess since it does not want to show us the characters as intelligent people with a friendship and understanding on a deeper level than sex. It simply does not answer the questions, it want to ask. It doesn't even try!
And for the actors: Stephen Baldwin, who tends to star in "kinky" movies, has a really bad hair cut. Despise that, this might be his finest work. It's not good, but.... ya know what I'm saying. Lara Flynn Boyle gives us the usual "I can be Marilyn" looks and seems to overkill her character because her acting is sort of over the top. Josh Charles is great as ever. Why don't we see him some more. He is indeed talented and great, a versatile actor.
This movie is - well, a mess. You might like it though. I think I does not.
3/10
