    [Highly rated reviewer]

    this film kicks hard! without given to much away it it set down under! one guy rebeling from his family, his community, himself, some scenes were so erotic and some so repulsive as are guy searches for his freedom to live with his sexuality in the real world, both funny and sad and very dramatic one to watch in alone in dimly lit room.

  • Crap in film form

    Rated - 0.5 stars

    I've never written a review on this site, despite receiving over a hundred disks so far. Yet I feel it my duty as a human being to warn you away from 100 minutes of utter crap. Really, there's no better word, crap. Imagine a really crap Australian film, mixed with a really crap queer film, throw in a load of crap actors and you have Head On.

  • Dramatic and true

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer , 15 Jun 2012
    This is a surprisingly dramatic and taut film, erotic and moving in parts and truthful. It maybe needs a little understanding of the attitude to Greeks and italians in white Australian society to appreciate it fully. But given some of the earlier reviews I was surprised by its quality and tension. The only serious downside is that many of the actors, including the lead Ari, look older than their roles - he is more twenty -five than nineteen; so the behaviour doesn't always seem right.

    Its fantastic! Don`t believe those other reviews that its rubbish and boring! Many times on this site I have read reviews that have raved about films-that turn out to be totally boring cr*p-but these negative reviews are just not right!

    This is a fantastic DVD that I have rented several times- and it has NEVER failed to entertain me.

    In three simple words:- IT`S JUST GREAT!!

  • Utter rubbish

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By a customer from Leeds , 06 Feb 2011
    Only watch this film if you believe the cliched stereotypes that gay men experience such angst it renders them out of control when walking the streets. It does maintain the recurrent penis so no doubt will be applauded for challenging boundaries and feeding into the elusive vagina myth.

    On a brighter note, if you are currently self harming this film will enhance the experience
