Its always a challenge to make a film about gay men where the characters do something other than talk about their romantic dreams or sex experiences, and this film does not escape that trap, making it a kind of Steel Magnolias for the Romantic Gay Male.For a particular market, this is an entertaining and frequently amusing slice of life, with early cameos from actors like Zach Braff and Dean Cain that tend to light up the screen now and then, and veteran character actor John Mahoney as the Reliable Old Guy. The main character tends to be a big of a drag after about forty minutes, moaning about too many unresolved issues that become tiresome for a viewer who might not share them. The film's heart is in the right place, certainly, showing affection for some gay men who face their daily dilemmas with some humor and no little irony, and its not a sleazy wallow. For a young about to be or just-out gay men looking for escapist fare, this film is probably an excellent choice

About gay life style. Gray, red nuances and melancholic crumbs. Few friends and their circle. Small dramas and a new definition for normal existence. Same ordinary sins and expectations. Same need of the other and same desire to define himself. It is not a film about a minority. Or description of a society level. But a picture. Small, naive, complicated, with many shadows and young faces. A page. About beauties of life and the ways to have essence of its. It is not a case. Films about relationship between gays are a lot. But in this case special is the science to say the small facts not as sketch of damned people or strange little world but as mirror of ordinaries tensions, games or sadness. That is all!

May Contain Spoilers I just got around to watching this movie a few days ago and I have to say as a heterosexual male it was a pretty decent movie. The story focuses on a group of homosexual males leading lives in LA. The movie does not focus on the stereotypical gay male. Many times when they are talked about the subject of AIDS, and sex come up but you never here about the average life like most people lead. Being gay is just a preference in partnership...it doesn't mean your any different in your life outside of your relationship.I originally stumbled across this movie because of actors Dean Cain and Zachary Braff. Braff in the beginning I thought was just a little too much but then I realized that each actor fit into the character he was playing and any other combination would have messed it up.Last but not least, the main point that I took away from this was not about the gay community but about how true friends come to you in a time of need. It may have taken a while for the characters to realize what kind of friendship they had with each other (and for Benji (Zach Braff) he almost kills himself,) but when the friends find out what kind of trouble he is in, they come running.8/10MSMITH

This film about the friendship of a group of friends, whose friendship with each other is constantly under strain due to various arguments and fights."The Broken Hearts Club" is not quite a comedy as it appears to be. I find it full of sadness. The characters are all superficial and in fact unhappy deep inside. They back stab each other, hurt each other in almost every possible way. It's really sad to see that they call themselves friends, when they can't support each other. It brings me down. In addition, the film is full of clichés, I don't really find it so enjoyable.
