Last night jcruisedirector and I watched some gay cinema (quel surprise). One was so insufferable (29th and Gay) that we turned it off 20 minutes into the movie. The second, was actually pretty good.

The 24th Day is a film adaptation of an AIDS play (again, quel surprise). One character kidnaps the other, because he believes him to be the man who gave him HIV, and holds him hostage while they wait for results. Dramatically speaking, it felt like a writer's workshop piece, and totally looked like one too. But it was fairly well written, even if the ending wasn't the slash and kill moment everything was setting it up to be. That would have at least been more interesting than the "I'll let you live with yourself and the damage you've caused" ending we got.

Overall rating: B-
