On the Other Hand : A Donald Strachey Mystery

On the Other Hand : A Donald Strachey Mystery

Lično nisam ljubitelj Donalda Stracheya, ali sam dobio podosta mailova sa zahtjevom da u blog ubacim i ovaj film.

Detektivska priča u kojoj je detektiv peder koji živi sa jednim šarmantim likom se vrti oko dvije lezbijke koje su izložene maltretiranju . One su ujedno jedine u susjedstvu koje su odbile da prodaju kuću nekim investitorima za veliku sumu novca. Neko im ubacuje kamenje kroz prozor, piše anti pederske pamflete po zidovima i radi slične pakosti.
Ali tu je čuveni detektiv Donald Strachey koji sumlja da iza svega toga ne stoji homofobija već veliki biznis...

Film ne obiluje nekim nagim scenama, skoro da nema ništa što bi nam zaokupilo pažnju osim par scena u kojima je stidljivo prikazana golotinja. Penis nećete viđeti u ovom filmu. A gluma je na nivou ostalih filmova iz ovog detektivskog serijala - srednje loša.

Al ajde neka ga svrstamo u kategoriju filmova koje će mo pogledati kada nemamo pametnija posla!

SYNOPSIS

When the residents of a neighborhood are offered huge sums of money to sell their homes to a developer, the only ones to refuse are an elderly lesbian couple. Soon after, the couple’s home is besieged by anti-gay vandalism, but Don suspects that the attack is motivated by big-business rather than homophobia. As the investigation progresses, Tim and Don fall in love all over again, as strengthened by their admiration for the elderly lesbian couple.

Gay Detective as it should be played while watching this movie on the HERE! network, I came to realize that no one else could play the lead role except Chad Allen. While the movie pace is relatively slow in nature - it must after all build to the ending - it does so in just slow enough pace to make you want to pull your hair out.

Casting is decent all around - his up-tight husband is borderline annoying, and the gay secretary is becoming more annoying than in the last movie. The hot ex of the husband plays into the gay fear of the hot ex putting the make on the current husband...but it rather backfires on him as he becomes a target himself.

The last 40 minutes of the movie are the best part of the movie - you can almost skip through the first part as the pacing is too slow. But once the shooting starts and the music quickens - the pace of the movie goes into a much needed overdrive! They are currently filming another movie in the series - let's hope that they can pace the next one better - but this one is not too shabby all around - just needs a slightly higher quality of scripts!
