The drama itself was so awesome and brilliant!the only thing that audiences needed at the time was just one other season,a final season, not just 80 min which even wasn't semi-enough for patrick himself! just in order not to blow up your imagination of your favorite show!they destroyed a very sweet love,very lovely couple,because there was no time to figure their problems out! you easily can feel kevin's love to patrick..Russell tovey was a genius in acting indeed!! i wished it ended differently ..it was so heartbreaking for me...

... View MoreI just finished re-watching TV-Show, and with huge expectations prepared myself for Looking: The Movie. Yup, I can say it's amazing. Atmosphere and aesthetics of the show are visible, Andrew Haigh really is capable or capturing emotions of those characters in sublime way. This expression has been used a lots of times, but it really does feel like you're just watching real people, not just actors act.Acting is great, Jonathan Groff is wonderful here, although he wasn't among my favorite performers on the show, he really shines in the film. I do love the fact that he ended up with Richie, but scene with Kevin is probably my favorite from the film. It was really heartbreaking, and like their fight at end of Season 2, their conversation here is so real, vivid, authentic. The way Kevin kisses him for the last time was so hard to watch, it was really emotional and touching. As well as Richie coming back to the club, and kissing Patrick. It was breathtaking.My only complaint is that it doesn't focus on Dom at all, which is shame, because he's my favorite character and Murray Bartlett is perfect in the role, but here he doesn't have much to do. But, considering I love all these characters, it was really nice to see them together again, and when they all met up in the club at the beginning of the film, I literally couldn't but not smile all the time, to see them all again. Afterwards, as I said, it mostly focuses on Patrick, and Agustin and Eddie wedding, and it's nice to see things conclude like that.Ending almost made me cry. I really will miss these characters. I hope we get another special like this, but if we don't, this film feels like perfect closure to ultimate tale of friendship, that we had pleasure to watch and enjoy.
... View MoreI have always been a fan of the series...and I was somewhat disappointed when they announced that it was canceled. So it was nice to see this movie and get some kind of closure and see where the characters have gone after the show... Unfortunately the movie was more about Patrick, the rest of the crew was all there.. but they all played minor parts.. there were no big story lines about them..Patrick left SF and moved to Denver after his break up with Kevin, because going into the office with your ex wasn't something he could handle. Now 9 months later he comes back to SF to see Eddie and Agustin get married.The minute he gets back into town and meets up with his old friends... telling them he's been single for 9 months... the slut in him comes out . He picks up this young boy in a club and takes him home to have sex. After that night he starts thinking that maybe he needs some closure with Kevin. So he decides to text him and meet up for some coffee.That meeting is pretty awkward and also a bit painful to watch. Patrick pretends that he wanted to meet to settle some stuff about the APP both men created together. Kevin saw right through him. It was so very clear that Kevin was still in love with Patrick. And Kevin was pretty harsh in telling Patrick that he never gave their relationship a real chance. That Patrick was the kind who runs away when he gets scared. Patrick tells Kevin that he "knew" that Kevin couldn't have been monogamous in their relationship and that is why he walked away... Kevin lets Patrick know that he really wanted to have tried ! Then he offers Patrick a great job back in SF.. He kisses Patrick tenderly and walks away. From that moment on I was so hoping those 2 would get back together.At the wedding party in the club.. I was hoping that when Patrick was on the dance floor.. he would turn around and Kevin would be there to get him back.. but all Patrick saw were the longing eyes of Richie... who is in a long term relationship. I never quit liked Richie.. I don't know why... but his gloomy way of being, his lack of showing any kind of emotions, always being a bit too distant for my taste...So the ending for me was really disappointing ! What was also disappointing was that this movie was a bit too much about patrick.. and the rest of the cast were only "extra's" ! Where in the series there were multiple story lines about the different people in the group of friends.. this time 90% of the story line was about Patrick.. and the wedding was a small side line. Shame we didn't get to see what the others did in the time apart.Maybe another movie next year to set it all straight ;-)
