Charming, playful, and totally irresistible.

You I Love is worth a look. It's a chance to watch the first steps of gay Russian filmmaking. Hopefully, there'll be more -- and more assured ones -- to come.

shows us a Russia we don't often get to see

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 27, 2005

Stolpovskaya's story of bisexual desire does not hold up its narrative end.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 30, 2005

The movie's choppy M온라인카지노추천-style edits seem to be covering up a lack of focus in the characters' motivations.

It's certainly no surprise that the best apology Timofei can manage for the heartbroken Vera involves repeating lines from a bad television soap opera.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 6, 2005

None of the performers leaves much of an impression...and the stylistic tricks, while visually interesting, aren't enough to compensate.

Full Review | Apr 7, 2005

The fault lies in an anemic script and misguided attempts by co-directors Olga Stolpovskaya and Dmitry Troitsky to seem hip by using lots of quick cuts.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 1, 2005

...like an implausible, superficial knock-off of a Pedro Amolodovar flick.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 31, 2005

Rather trite and passe, not to mention overwrought and narratively chaotic...this is one 'Love' that's easy to resist.

| Original Score: C- | Mar 26, 2005

The whole thing has a dour resolve that undermines its attempts at humor.

| Mar 25, 2005

The characters are likeable so you don't mind following them on their adventures, even when the destination isn't exactly clear.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 25, 2005

The film comes off as little more than a shock-value exercise.

| Original Score: C | Mar 24, 2005

To say the epilogue strains credibility is a kindness. The filmmakers seem set on a happy ending, no matter what the story itself is telling them.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 10, 2005

What was intended as a breezy multiple romance gets swamped by editorial turbulence.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 15, 2005

Though the progress of this ill-matched love triangle is fun to follow in its self-consciously wacky way, the movie's chief pleasures, at least to a Western eye, are anthropological.

Full Review | Feb 14, 2005

A clumsily drawn, poorly acted love triangle.

Full Review | Feb 14, 2005

Wavers between would-be satire and romantic drama, inhabiting neither mode convincingly.

Full Review | Feb 14, 2005

The film starts as an entertaining postmodern take on bedroom farce but quickly becomes the kind of sprawling, unpredictable and sexually charged tale associated with Pedro Almodvar, but without the storytelling discipline.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 11, 2005

A fascinating peek at post-Iron Curtain sexual mores and their gradual shift toward gay inclusion.

| Original Score: B- | Feb 11, 2005
