Straight is uncomfortable in its ambiguity, provocative in what it doesn't define, powerful in what it suggests. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Timothy P @timop1919 Nov 10 The movie is an interesting exploration of bisexuality but i didn't like the characters or care what happened to any of them. See more Scott D Oct 18 The movie pushes the boundaries of bisexual men. The out come is in the title, and the ending leaves much to question about Ro’s life. Cris is young and immature and it can be seen throughout the movie. He breaks Ro’s shell, but their relationship is doomed to fail. He makes the healthier choice not because she’s a woman but because of her maturity and place in life. If Cris was in a similar place in life, the dynamic would have been more interesting and unpredictable. I prefer a more complex outcome where you get the guy and the girl in the end but to each their own. I do feel bad for Elia who doesn’t know what she is actually forgiving Ro for. This movie does play in the stereotypical bi man of cheating. It does show the complexity of coming out and being open which adds depth to the world around them. Most of the movies is in that apartment which makes it hard for us to understand the social structure around them. There isn’t a lot of backstory on any of the characters which lowers our ability to empathize with them which forces you to only focus on who he will be with. This emphasizes the importance we put on sexuality and relationships. See more Khaztiel Delbod D Jun 19 Me gustó la historia y el mensaje que deja.
