7/10
A decent movie to watch!
6 August 2007
This is a story about pursuing your dreams. a young Irish boy, shared an apartment with a stylish gay student and had a crush on his beautiful female friend, also got involved with some drug dealers.

The storyline is believable, the evolvement of the plot is intriguing and interesting. How the pure friendship can come into being between a gay man and a straight man? It's the most touching part of this film. The sexual orientation is just a stunt, the relationship of the two characters is well presented.

About dreams, the young boy always wanted to be an artist as he had the talent of drawing, but the status quo made him a civil servant. Sometimes we dare not to change just because we are too lazy, or in lack of motivation. Always easier said than done, but taking action might not be so hard as we think. Maybe changing our sexual orientation is difficult, however changing our life to fulfill what you really want is feasible.

On the other hand, the drug culture is inevitable to the young generation, the temptation makes it hard to decline. Making a wise choice seems vital then.

The cast is good, Michael Legge and Allen Leech each gives a strong and memorable performance, the chemistry between them is pleasant and adorable. Amy Shiels is amazingly beautiful in this film.

I highly recommend this film to everyone who are wandering how their lives are going to be and I think it's very useful.
