honzamaruska Even the doubtful acting of, I think all, of the actors, it is not survivable to look at the out of blue editing cuts, horrible music and trashy image compositions that probably belongs to 90s soap operas from south America (and I am probably being too harsh to that genre).

EnglishGayBloke This is a gay romance between two "straight" advertising agency executives who are adversaries in their company. In all fairness, a lot of this adversity is directed by Steve towards Mark, who just stands up for himself against Steve. From the start of the film, you can see Steve is a very driven, focused person. He will always give 110% to anything he does in life.Steve Miller is a working-class American ex-cop who has joined the ad agency. He's been working on the Foist account for 3 years and expects to get it when its up for grabs. Then along comes Mark Richfield, an English upper-class guy who has just joined the company, who makes the mistake of nicking Steve's parking space. Then Mark seems to be up for grabs to automatically get the Foist account. That puts Mark on Steve's personal radar and hit-list.There is a team-bonding exercise in the desert. Steve does his usual take-control thing. He HAS to be the leader. He manages in one exercise to get stranded in the desert overnight with Mark. They squabble a fair bit as they usually do, then Steve takes charge as he usually does, snogs Mark breathless and things kick off. BOY do they kick off! So Steve and Mark have one fantastic gay night together, then they get back to town and Steve discovers Mark is engaged and due to be married in a month's time. Do you think this is going to stop Steve? Heck no!The film shows Mark to be a bit spoiled and vulnerable perhaps due to his posh upbringing, which he admits to. He is definitely needy out in the desert at night when he is scared that Steve will abandon him.Mark gets panicked by Steve stropping off after another squabble and says desperately "you can't leave me alone" then Steve says "I won't", that is one of the most romantic parts of this film for me. Steve also tells Mark later that he is high-maintenance, and Mark cheerfully admits it.I won't say any more about the rest of this film, I don't want to spoil the ending, but it is worth making the effort to watch.In my opinion, the acting overall was very good. The two leads, Eric Presnall (Steve) and Gregor Cosgrove (Mark) were excellent. I would like to see more of these two (although in this film we saw a LOT of Gregor Cosgrove heheh :P) What more can I say about Gregor Cosgrove? This guy is HOT!!! To be fair, Eric Presnall is very attractive too. The sexual chemistry between these two guys is sizzling!I absolutely love this film. It is a gay romance I will be able to watch again and again, from start to end, because I love the script, the acting and Steve and Mark in particular.Also have to say the musical score is great. The songs are really good and relate to the mood of each scene. I'm going to look into whether there is a soundtrack to buy for this film.

sinnerofcinema This is a great film about some very real and serious themes that are finally getting their due diligence. Its the bromance with sexual attraction in the mixed. SMSM (Straight Men who have men with other men) is actually a group of folks that exist that toil with this sort of issues. Im very glad the author has had the courage to bring this film to fruition for more films like these are needed in order to further address this segment of the population that is very real to the gamut of sexuality. I can only highly recommend this film because of the story, acting and the films earnestness in finding a voice that is often dismissed as just mere curiosity/bisexuality. The new generations will prove that sexual fluidity is more where we are all are because the heart love who the heart loves.

glf-5 I am a HUGE fan of G.A. Hauser's books and was thrilled to be able to get an advanced copy of her film, "Capital Games" at the GRL 2013. The film was beyond my expectations. Steve Miller (Eric Presnall) has recently split up with his girlfriend Sonja as well as quit the LAPD. Deciding to get into the advertising world he encounter suave Mark Richfield (Gregor Cosgrove) and electricity as well as sparks fly. The firm has a retreat in the Santa Fe Desert and Steve becomes very competitive with Mark. At the retreat they get to know each other very well and Steve also finds out that Mark has a fiancé, Sharon. Steve not convinced that Mark is totally straight goes to his home and runs into Mark's very sexy roommate, Lawyer, Jack Larsen (Shane Keough. I do not want to give away anything more. The cinematography is beautiful as are the songs in the film which the multi-talented G.A. Hauser also wrote. My only complaint is that the film was not longer, since I got so involved with the characters. The three leads do a fine job in their performances. So looking forward to more screen adaptations of G.A. Hauser's books BRAVA!!!
