It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
The naysayers on this message board seem to have a very limited appetite for unique cinematic voices. Ms. Hernandez has created a bold movie, both highly personal and passionate. She has told a story about domestic violence without resorting to cliches by cleverly switching the familiar gender roles. The result is a funny and audacious romp through a psychodrama wonderland. Who could not like a film that features Jerri Ryan going berserk, murdering her cousin's beloved pet pig and then serving the ham to her for Sundau dinner. Roger Ebert was right- this is a great film!
MEN CRY BULLETS is certainly one of the most unique films I've seen. And while the subject of abusive relationships is difficult, writer / director, Tamara Hernandaez brilliantly gender bends the roles, having the female character be the older, abuser of the two. By doing this she lends a unique and interesting view to this very sad and difficult subject matter. I think this is a film that is completely worth seeing and will lend a glimpse into this world in a way that has never been seen before.
This movie is certainly not for everybody. It may be too deep, too shocking, too uncomfortable or maybe too campy for some. Within the dark humor it offers a very modern, original take on sex and violence and gender roles. For those who are willing, this movie has a lot to say with a wicked sense of humor and original, funny dialogue.
A look at disfunctional relationships at it's best. A great study of human behavior dealing with repressed memories, mental illness and sexual desire. Very entertaining with a mesmerizing soundtrack. A very well acted movie with an exciting and up and coming cast.
