Review of Sugar

Sugar (I) (2004)
8/10
Interesting, to say the least.

This film is definitely not one for the faint hearted, nor is it blockbuster material. And yet, I was pleasantly surprised. I thought Sugar was phenomenally realistic and avant-garde.

The cast was amazing. Noble and Fehr make a fantastic duo, the latter did a -great- job of representing the bad influence that your mother always warned you about. Noble shows his innocence on his sleeve so well, which feeds off Fehr's "bad boy" outer shell fantastically.

I think the thing I most admire of this film is the sheer blunt truth of it all. Albeit a little odd, it reveals the struggle so many gays (even straight people) have gone through with eye-bludgeoning scenes and characters you see everyday in your hometown.

Despite the outlandish outlook of it all, I find it unbelievably easy to relate to. Eight out of ten.
