The Invisible Thread

While the film centers around the teen kid and his struggles, the backdrop portrays his middle-aged gay parents whose relationship falls apart in the most immature and hysterical way. Gay male relationships and marriages are generally more stable than any relationship involving women (at least where I live), not surprisingly because gay men are much better at communicating their sexual and emotional needs. Others could take note of how well gay male relationships work and why and here comes this disgraceful piece of garbage portraying us as immature teenage girls thrashing and wailing. I feel none of the cast and crew could actually be gay and if they are, shame!

There's not really anything positive to say about this movie. It's overacted, it's not funny at all and it leaves the question why this movie had to be made. The story is completely off. The two father-characters are played pretty badly. The picture drawn of the gay-couple is very weird. I absolutely do not recommend to watch that movie.

The Invisible Thread is a nice little treat for those who love sweet familial stories. The film actually offers nothing new. All is been done before. However, the tweak on the details gave a fresh breath of air to the tired formula, hence it's still fun to watch. Practically harmless and heartwarming.

The story is quite good and new, it's far from the usual and it's a look at how a relationship has to endure after 20 years. The war between the dads is a bit excessive, but not too much and adds to the comedy as well as the drama, the rest of story is quite realistic. This a totally new gay movie, it addresses to both straight and lgbt audiences. A big plus are the strong lead actors - Filippo Timi, Francesco Scianna above all, but also the newcomer Francesco Gheghi, maybe not as experienced, but surely being well supported by the director, he is a rue heartbreaker. At the end of the day it's a beautiful movie one could watch definitely more than once.

Enjoyable and relatable plot line. The young actors are pretty good, especially the lead. Some of the "older" cast should consider another profession. Especially the woman friend. Just awful. And one note on climbing: that's really not the way you do it. It's so wrong I can't think of an equivalent.

This is a sweet and entertaining movie that's all about family, not necessarily DNA. It's well acted and very believable in today's modern world of blended and extended family structures.

It just became one of my favorite movies. It tells the problematic of divorce on the perspective of a gay family. Interest point of view and very sincere. Excellent acting.
