Customer reviews of The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green
|
Customer Rating:  
Summary: Over-rated & over-priced
Comment: I bought and watched this film today based on the reviews of a number of people on this site, and I've got to say I was disappointed in the film and a bit surprised that many rated it so highly. Comparisons made between it and films like Broken Hearts Club are far too complimentary to this piece of predictable fluff.
Another constant rave was about how cute the actor playing Ethan was. Each to his own taste, of course, but I thought his ex., Leo, was a better sort. Few mentioned Letterle's acting ability, thankfully, which we thought was as flat as a pancake and very unengaging.
The strengths are the hat boys, the mother and the very occasional subtle joke such as the empty shelf for 'lesbian humour' literature in the early library scene.
The weaknesses were the hideous Republican & the seemingly inconsistent screenplay, especially on the main premise of Ethan's commitment-phobia.
Lastly, so many others commented on al the extras on the DVD yet all we got was a crappy photo gallery and trailers. It would've been nice to see the featurette on the comic strip that other reviewers have referred to.
And I paid more for this than I did for 'Shelter'! Ripped off!

Summary: Mostly? Unfabulous
Comment: Protagonist Ethan Green is unable to commit, always secretly believing that someone better will come along. Eventually he's torn between three very different hunks vying for his affections.
Not as good as it sounds.
This is typical of every other formulaic gay romantic comedy of the last ten years. Like Jeffrey, Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss and The Broken Hearts Club, the characters in this film don't seem to have anything on their minds but their own gayness. They obsess on being gay. All the jokes are about being gay. All the cultural references are gay. All the locales are gay. All the careers are gay. Based on the comic strip of the same name, this is a mere trifle of a film. It'll pass the time and maybe give you an odd chuckle here or there, but ultimately it's very forgettable.
It's fairly competently acted and moves at a swift pace, but I felt as if I'd seen it all before. There's even, not one, but two (!) witty and wise old trannies. Only in modern gay Hollywood does the simple act of donning a dress automatically make a man wise. Trite.

Summary: Amusing and cheeky, The Life of Ethan Green
Comment: This movie premiered back in 2004 at the Toronto Int'l Film Festival and was highly anticipated by not only the gay community but the film industry at large due to actors and productions staff in the movie.
Although the movie lacked that magic to keep you intrigued all the way through, it certainly was a treat during many of it's moments. Seeing the lovely Mredith Baxter on the big screen was great, she played such a funny mom to Ethan (played by the sexy and gifted actor!)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fabulous Fun
Comment: Anyone familiar with the comic strip will enjoy this come-to-life take on Ethan Green. Fun!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Don't Waste Your Time!
Comment: The movie was truly a wretched experience. The six letters to describe it are S-U-C-K-E-D!
