Brokeback Mountain is a sweeping epic that explores the lives of two young men, a ranch hand and a rodeo cowboy, who meet in the summer of 1963 and unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection. The complications, joys and heartbreak they experience provide a testament to the endurance and power of love. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal deliver emotionally charged, remarkably moving performances in "a movie that is destined to become one of the great classics of our time" (Clay Smith, The Insider).
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Brokeback Mountain Comment: Didn't care much for the movie. I think that the only thing that I enjoyed watching was the backgound settings. There was no "chemistry" as they say where Heath Ledger was concern. At times he looked like he was really uncomfortable with the role. Like you could tell that he wasn't really gay. Jake on the other hand, was really into the character role. Overall, I didn't like the entire movie. I was expecting more. Customer Rating: Summary: Boring Comment: I caught this on TV and found it kind of a boring cycle of hurt and comfort with a predictable ending. It just can't do justice to the Annie Proulx story. I actually didn't finish watching it. You could probably read the story in the same amount of time. Customer Rating: Summary: open your mind and your heart... Comment: and you will be deeply touched. I just rented this movie and am so glad I finally did. It is one of the most toching, raw and honest love stories I have ever seen...and it will stay with you long after the movie is over. This has easily become one of my new favorite movies. The acting is done so well...that you feel like you are there with them...going through all they are experiencing. Love doesn't know gender, age or race. I would say to watch this film more than once, because there can be so much you didn't catch the first time you see it. It took my breath away. This is love in it's purest form...consumming, inconvenient, crazy...can't live without each other love. Customer Rating: Summary: Loved this!!! Comment: This is my favorite movie. The director is amazing. The scores are phenomenal. The acting by both leads as well as the supporting actresses was perfect. I fell in love with the story. I can't imagine being loved like that. Being taken for granted is easy, but loved like that is just amazing. Everything rang true and it was just so moving. Also, the collector's edition with the postcards are fantastic. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Customer Rating: Summary: Shed a tear Comment: A very poignant film. I couldn't remain dry eyed throughout the whole thing, and I'm not one to get very emotional.
This movie reminds me of my own struggal to reach out to someone when it's hard to. I think it will move anyone who's ever felt the pain that so often comes with the joy of love. If that's you, you will thoroughly enjoy this movie.
