A bit overrated, but still an amazing film
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreThis is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
View Moreso i was unfortunate enough too have to watch this in my PSHEE lesson at school i get the message they are trying to spread here i don't have a problem with that but what i do have a problem with is how they portray the characters they make it like if you are straight you are a bad person you can tell that with the way they portray the character Isaac. i also hate the acting hate the camera work and hate the editing none of the actors can act that well at all with there cringy catch phrases like "dikey dikey we no likey' and putting the words man and bruv in every sentence it seems. the camera work is terrible like at one point the camera man suddenly points the camera down and films someones shoes and editing random jump cuts while going up or down stairs or going through doors annoying looping music and guitar strums they probably found on the YouTube audio library. me and my friend both hate this film so in my opinion this is just another lazy acting, bad quality probably funded by the national lottery film.
View More'Fit' has an important message, this is that it really doesn't matter if your gay or straight. And the way it does this is quite clever, by taking more than half of dozen characters, developing them as gay and then in the next act, their sexuality is being questioned as they might not actually be gay (if that makes any sense). Intended to show that it doesn't really matter. But throughout the film, the constant use of cheesy guitar chords, confusing editing and worst of all bad acting puts this good technique to bed. Particularly from the guy who plays Jordan's boyfriend, who can't act to save his skin. There are also some really wobbly pieces of dialogue and some really generic directing. Sure, if you want 'an educational film', watch this. But if want you want a good film, don't.
View MoreFirst of all, I think the ratings of this movie is really unfair. I will elaborate further down.The movies is about what it is like to be gay, and how hard it can be to come out of the closet when you have homophobic friends etc. It follows the stories of a little group of students, who all participate in a dance/drama class. The issues regarding homosexuality is brought to the class' attention when their new, gay teacher begins. All of the characters are dealing with emotional issues, both homophobic friends, family issues and school bullying.I really enjoyed this movie and it is definitely on my top 5 of gay movies. Though the fact that there is four gay people in one class may seem a bit unrealistic. It has a great flow, it is not too slow, nor is it too fast. You get to know the characters really well, and it is just an over-all good story.The only bad thing I can point out is their accent. I had some trouble understanding some parts, the slang and accent is pretty massive... But I guess it is easier for with English being their native language.
View MoreI rented this movie but then made the mistake to check the IMDb rating. It was at 5.4. I was not expecting much but ended watching the whole movie and pleased that I did so. You follow the different stories of teenagers coming to terms with their sexuality and their acceptance of others. It was a bit too 'educational' to me at some points (you get the typical question: what is the difference between a cross dresser, a trans-gender and a drag queen!) and sure that the movie is aimed at a teenager crowd, but the acting is well done, especially the dance teacher. Dancing is the rally point for all the characters and is used as a theater of life. Again, well done. For all of this, I give this movie a 8 out of 10.
