This just didn't grab me
This was an interesting story, produced well with very attractive camera work. Among the actors, Adrian Lindayag gave a wonderful performance. (I don't find effeminate gay characters very appealing, but he managed to get beneath my skepticism.)
For the rest, I just didn't feel any chemistry between the actors. The whole thing just seemed a bit two-dimensional. The Luke character was going through a serious emotional crisis but I never felt any of that. It all seemed to fall a it flat.
Also, I have to say that the setting in a Catholic boys' school induced a huge dose of disbelief on my part. Maybe things have changed in the church since I was a boy (I HOPE so) but I find it hard to believe that the level of tolerance for sexual minorities that is depicted in the movie is anywhere near real-life.
