Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Stefan and Chris are the only guys left in a male bonding group that meets weekends for spa time, red meat and girl talk. They are getting nowhere fast with their self-absorbed attitudes when they meet a former friend, Victor, at a restaurant. Told through flashbacks the film weaves together their dating games, each embellishing his version of the truth to look more macho, dominant and sexist. When it is Victor's turn he tells of his encounter with a dying woman, Ruth (Laura Flynn Boyle), with whom he had his first meaningful relationship. His story is so at odds with his friends that the storyline is catapulted onto a different platform posing questions about giving, relationships and love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smart, insigntful, and thoroughly enjoyable, February 4, 2004

By A Customer

This film was truly underappreciated, most likely due to Miss Boyle's lackluster performance. The screenplay, though underserved by the cast performances and studio marketing, was tailored, precise, and enlightining on the subject of male-femail relationships and the underlying psychology of this important and complicated area. The directing was also noteworthy, particularly for a first-timer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smart and Sassy, February 14, 2004

By A Customer

The men are smart -- the women are sassy... It's a thinkers movie like "Six Degrees of Separation"...

If you liked that -- you'll like this movie...

If you like movies that are about something, you won't be let down.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Darkly Comic Exploration of Contemporary Sexual & Romantic, December 1, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Red Meat [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Once a month, Stefan and Chris meet up with their buddies to go to the gym, eat red meat and talk about girls. They run into Victor, Chris's long-lost friend, and invite him to join in the manly ritual. Each man has had his share of women; loving them, using them, and leaving them. It's the testosterone talking.
