Checkered Shirt (Korean Mini-Series)

Review Checkered Shirt (Korean Mini-Series)

Checkered Shirt is an endearing Korean mini-series that delicately explores the innocence and complexities of young love. The series consists of 8 episodes, each lasting around 8-10 minutes, making it easy to watch in one sitting. Unfortunately, the conclusion of the show feels abrupt, leaving numerous unresolved plot points. It seems as though the production…

O Senador (Portuguese) [The Senator]

Review O Senador (Portuguese) [The Senator]

This Brazilian murder-mystery thriller offers an engaging plot, and to some degree, the filmmakers manage to honor its potential. However, the production quality has a distinctly independent feel, and some of the performances fall short of expectations. While it is commendable to explore diverse stories surrounding gay themes, without proper attention to execution, these films…

Every You, Every Me (Thai Series)

Review Every You, Every Me (Thai Series)

I had no idea that this series was actually an anthology with five distinct love stories. As with any anthology, some tales deeply resonate, while others leave you craving more—this series is no exception. With a total of 8 episodes, each about 50 minutes long, the first two stories are each contained within one episode,…

Table For 3 (Filipino)

Review Table For 3 (Filipino)

I am uncertain about my opinion on this film. While the themes of polygamy and complications in gay relationships have been approached with sensitivity in other works, this film unfortunately falls short. Although the central concept could have been intriguing, the execution through its structural and narrative choices reveals several flaws. The primary issue with…

My – The Series (Burmese Series)

Review My – The Series (Burmese Series)

This is a BL show from Myanmar, which seems to draw heavy inspiration from Thai BL dramas, particularly those set in universities and schools. The ending felt somewhat open-ended and unexpected, and I’m still not entirely sure what message the creators were trying to convey. Nonetheless, it’s good to see the BL genre expanding. With…

Review The Judgment

Internalized homophobia is a force that can be incredibly powerful. We often think of it as a lingering sense of shame or something that fades away once someone comes out, but in reality, it manifests in many different ways and is often deeply shaped by cultural contexts. We’ve seen numerous films dealing with homosexuality and…
