awful is too kind a word for this flailing Aussie angst-fest, Aug 10 2007
By John Frame "There Is No Substitute For Equality" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tan Lines (DVD)
It would be difficult to imagine a worse plot, crummier script, sloppier direction or more lack-lustre acting (but I don't blame the actors).Tan Lines pushes the envelope only in terms of what a viewer is willing to put up with in an effort to support queer cinema.
There's some very careless film-work e.g. with the reflection of camera crew in clear view in one indoor night shot.
No budget is so small that it would excuse what we see here as the final edit.
The technical quality of the DVD is particularly low - but I'm guessing it is as good as it would ever get.
The storyline is pure farce mixed with a liberal dash of the absurd. The intention is supposedly to tell a gay teen surfer's coming of age story, but the characters are simply not believable - and they're all terminally morose. This film has far too much teen angst and far too little heart.
Only "Crazy Richard" gives "Tan Lines" a run for its money as the all time worst Australian film.

Sexy & Smart---Especially lead actor Jack Baxter, Sep 26 2007
By Tom O'Leary "Writer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tan Lines (DVD)
This movie is a wonderful surprise---a small gem, really. The photograph on the DVD and the title are actually misleading. The actor on the cover is not the lead, though he is good.The standout performance in TAN LINES is the by the actor playing the main character. Jack Baxter is absolutely sensational as a smart and mouthy youth coming of age. He is attracted to other boys but also lets himself be distracted by females.
The Australian director of this movie has done a gorgeous job of creating a totally believable world of young slacker/surfers. This screenplay for TAN LINES is smart, funny, sexy, interesting and compelling.
Bravo to all involved, especially Jack Baxter!

Smart Spoiler, Jan 27 2011
By Michael Kerjman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tan Lines (DVD)
Watching this film on the Australia Day which is 26 January, was really a fun even for a such multi-topic viewer surprised by a number of sexually-charged pupil-involved situations covered a context profoundly confusing to much less acceptable and tolerant watchers surely.Young teens of an Australian outback explore their willies while adults either encourage or/and ground a variety of deeds.
This work is less explicit but far much dirtier than Clark's Kids.
Listmania!
