      Audience Member watched this film this weekend. good enough for a gay-themed movie, which is often times an excuse for mediocre film making. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member a bit too hard to follow; yet a good detective movie with a lot of suspense and mystery. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Donald Strachey, the first gay dective is back. He is helping to elderly Lesbians save their house from vandals. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm a supporter of this movie series not only because they are pioneering but also because I am such a huge fan of Chad Allen. This is the weakest of the movies so far, mainly due to the script writing. The books are better but Chad does shine and is a class above the material. It was fun to see Margot Kidder go from Lois Lane (circa 80's) to an old Lesbian in this film, bless her! :) Hopefully the next in the series will be better. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member You know the story on this one. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member There is no chemistry between the leads. There are too many characters. At least they have moved out of the gay "girlfriend!"/ musicals and wine drinking stereotypes with this one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
