Adam & Steve (2005)
It is refreshing to watch a film that has emphasis on love instead of on sex
25 November 2006
This film is a romantic comedy between two men in New York City. They by chance meet each other, get along very well, until things start to fall apart.

It is great that throughout the film, the emphasis is on love, instead of sex. It is so easy to fall into the temptation to make scenes depicting gay sex in order to entice gay viewers to watch the film. However, in this film, there are no sex scenes at all. The thing that keeps the viewers watching is the real love that keeps Adam and Steve together. Coupled with the excellent character development, the love between Adam and Steve becomes convincing and touching.

The dance sequences of this film are very well rehearsed and delightful to watch. The plot is straightforward and predictable, but that's the whole idea for romantic comedies.

I hope gay romantic comedies get made more often!
