| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
Star Trek : Nemesis Movie Rating: 
For Fans Only | |
| In this 10th Star Trek film, Enterprise crew members Riker and Troi (Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis from the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation) get married. | |
| But enroute to the honeymoon, the starship is sidetracked and has to defend Earth against alien Shinzon (Tom Hardy), who attempts to capture Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart), with whom he has a surprising connection. Along the way the crew picks up a "brother" of Android Data (Brent Spiner). |
|
| With an uninspired plot and high-tech galactic battles, Star Trek: Nemesis is kind of like a big-screen video game. Even diehard fans may want to be beamed out of the cinema. | |
Gay Interest: CampyThere's a reference to "transgender species" in this inherently campy flick, written by openly gay John Logan. Patrick Stewart co-starred in Jeffrey, and there's a cameo appearance by gay favourite Whoopi Goldberg, who has played queer in a number of movies, including The Color Purple and Boys on the Side. |
