Ethan Mao on DVD (2005)

Very enjoyable

A customer from London, England , 21/04/2006

Heart-warming story of two young gay men describing their friendship as one of the characters has to deal with family rejection in confrontational circumstances. This is a story of human relationships and love - touching, very worthwhile watching

Not as brutal

Squarecityboy from Birmingham [Highly rated reviewer] , 31/03/2008

Not quite as brutal as the trailer makes you believe. Would have been good to see the relationship between the two boys develop a little more first to see how the bond between them grew. The flash backs/dream sequences are a little confusing (I think the end's a cop out but not quite sure!) and the actress who played Ethan's stepmother is so bad in this part that she's really off-putting (the others are ok). Not a bad little movie though, with some lighter moments and mostly enjoyable, and not too long at 1 hour 30 mins.

Not a bad movie

A customer from milton keyes , 08/04/2006

The lead actor who played Ethan isn't that bad as an actor, some of the camera work and lack of music in some scenes was a bit strange but all in all an interesting if a slightly depressing movie at times! Hits home a message of some teenagers being up against everything but not so sure if the outcome was that realistic due to the problems Ethan faced!

A bit oddball at times but an interesting film with passable acting.
