Review of Luster

Luster (2002)
2/10
Another Awful Gay Themed Movie
13 August 2014
Warning: Spoilers
The portrayal and the story was just perfectly be defined as awful. Their might be potential but then it was awful. "Luster" maybe it was all about a glow of feeling of every characters in the movie, such Sam feeling for Jackson is just like a luster, just a glow but faded to nothing; Jackson incest with his own cousin; Jackson's feeling to Billy etc., all are like a flash then gone. It was poorly emphasized, thanks that the actors aren't famous and after watching they will just pass and be gone in your mind. And the frontal nudity were useless but I get the point of Jackson character at end, "maybe he realizes he doesn't need to be fond and look for others, for the love of his life is just there for him waiting, and so he ran to Derek, afraid of losing him as he loses Sam".

Note: I always wanted to watch LGBT film that can showcase learning, the nature and life of LGBT people etc. but Luster isn't a good movie just poorly made.
