2.0 out of 5 stars At your own risk, Oct 24 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking The Cycle (DVD)
Well, it could have been a lot more interesting. Though the storyline reflects the reality of many people, it lacks depth. And the erotic scenes (that are not all that erotic) do not make up for what the movie lacks in substance... and decent actors.

2.0 out of 5 stars After-School Formula, Jan 2 2003
By interested_observer "interested_observer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Breaking The Cycle (DVD)
Two good-looking gay guys are roommates in Manhattan. One likes to arrange dates in internet chatrooms; the other wants to get to know the other person first. The former gets "dates" - in a back area of an adult theater and with an 18-year-old nominally straight guy who plays baseball; the latter pines away at home. The roommates claim not to like each other. An underutilized, cute friend of the reserved roommate shows him how to get on the internet. Both roommates end up in the same chatroom. Try guessing the rest.

To its credit, this very earnest film flies through its motions in about 65 minutes. Snickers help one get past the wooden script and acting lulls. There are lots of skin shots, and the casting is attractive, though some of the sex scenes may not convince. (Maybe the two interviews in the extras section help explain that - both actors say they are straight and have never done this sort of thing before.)

While the movie clearly wants to show why getting to know someone before sex is better than a quickie through the internet, the roommate who holds back is not shown succeeding at getting much more than computer advice from a friend, who is told in turn that friendship is not enough to get any sex. The payoff for the slow-going roommate seems no better than the web-shopper's. It is not even clear the roommates will continue to tolerate each other.

Worthy, but trite...

1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful, April 22 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Breaking The Cycle (DVD)
Quite possibly the worst film I have seen since Disorderlies starring the Fat Boys. The acting is awful, the script could have been written by a 10 year old and the score is so bad that it sounds like it was written on a Casio keyboard from Wal-Mart. There is not even a decent message to take away with you. Who doesn't know that chat rooms are not the key to finding love? This film (and I use that term lightly as the picture quality suggests videotape) is so rushed that it is over by the time you get back from the bathroom and even a child would be able to figure out the entire plot within the first 5 minutes. Simply dreadful and not worth wasting your time or money.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good looking guys, Feb 19 2003
By Christian Paquette "movie dude" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Breaking The Cycle (DVD)
If anything this movie is worth it simply for looking at the good looking guys. The story line is a little preachy but still entertaining. "Chad" is particularly attractive and has a classical theatrical quality.
