Editorial Reviews

Morgan is the inspiring story of Morgan Oliver, a young athlete determined that a bicycle accident that left him paralyzed will not change him. He takes a chance on love when he meets Dean Kagen on a basketball court. Dean helps Morgan train for the same race in which he had his accident. But when he sees that Morgan will risk everything to win, Dean walks out. Left alone to face the race and demons that caused his accident, Morgan teeters between what he needs and what he wants. Can he find the strength to pull himself back up again?

Ok when you don't have a lot to do

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2020

I guess I am a bit old fashioned, especially since I am in my mid twenties. I like it when two guys are mature about how they feel about each other and don't let emotion run their relationship, so I liked the fact that the main characters were very open and honest and behaved maturely.

But, I might be the only one who seems to think so on here, I though the acting was kind of bad. It sounded like these people were robots reading off a script. Maybe my standards are higher,, I don't know. But I wasn't convinced.

Probably wouldn't want to watch it again.

True to Itself

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2020

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed watching this 3 times over the years.... the kindness of the characters always sticks with me. I rated a maybe generous 4 allowing for Indie type film; maybe a 3 compared to main stream movies. Agree with some reviews, the acting less than perfect especially with supporting roles but believable characters . The two main characters, the guys, were admirable and likable. Spoiler alert: I felt the ending was positive and focused on what was most important in the film....one's character growth..... not the actual race. The ending satisfied me; the race itself would have been fun but irrelevant.

Well-acted, well-written examination of a rarely explored topic

A sensitive, realistic portrayal of the physical and mental effects of a mobility disability played against the background of a gay love story. A very moving and profound film with superb performances from the young actors

Not your average LGBTQ story line, but average acting

Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2020

Verified Purchase

I think most of the ratings here on Amazon are being VERY generous. This is not a 5 star movie! Don't get me wrong. It's nice to see a story line that doesn't just assume LGBTQ are promiscuous and drug addicted. It's also nice to see a story line that shows the struggles of a paraplegic, something not typically covered. The two male leads are decent actors--not great, but decent. But the two female leads? Good grief. The mother, in particular, is so one dimensional in her acting, it REALLY distracted from the storyline. Overall, worth the watch, though I doubt it would be one that I would repeat.

A Great Movie About Givers and Takers and Learning to see the Differences

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a love story that happens to be about 2 gays guys yet it could be about any couple that is facing a variety of issues from their families, friends and themselves. They both have faced dealing with other people in their lives that were takers when the are givers that can be drained. Perfectly cast lead actors bring this story to life and I was heartened by their portrayals.

Real bro connection

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2020

Verified Purchase

It's true, as other reviewers observed-- the supporting actors are disappointing. But the chemistry between Dean and Morgan is brilliant. Jack Kesy is perfect as the generous and genuine friend-of-a-lifetime. And there's a lesson here about how true mates give each other their space. A nice departure from the gay clichés.

Generally a pretty good film

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2019

Verified Purchase

I've had this film in my que for quite a long time but it just never won out when it came time to pick what to watch. Today I watched it (mostly to get it out of my que) and I enjoyed it quite a lot. The acting and the technical were both quite good, but more than that it was real world situations that combined into an interesting story.

two people finding their way to each other

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2020

Verified Purchase

Okay, this is a gay film first of all, but it also speaks to how two people "find" each other, when one is uncertain of himself because, in this case, he can no longer walk. The acting could be stronger perhaps but there is much heart in this film. Get the tissues out. You'll need them at least five times. I applaud all involved with this film. Sincere and felt.

Happy Ending Seeker

Worthy attempt to tell a different story ...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 17, 2012

Verified Purchase

This "gay movie" should be applauded for attempting to weave a different story from the usual boy meets boy movie releases. Certainly the boy meets boy element is there, but the real heart of the story is about someone coping with sudden physical disability and the impact on their life and relationships. It's refreshing to see a movie with gay characters that wants to be more than "my big fat gay wedding vol 12" or whatever!
Sadly, it is limited by small budget constraints. There's a lot of outdoor shots in what appears to be a grey, cold autumn/winter but I think its supposed to be summer! Also usual quota of wooden-top actors.
But the only way to encourage more attempts at widening the gay movie experience is to support this with your wallet!

Personal review of the film 'Morgan'

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 8, 2013

Verified Purchase

I think this a very good movie showing a completely different aspect of gay life in an excellent way: even being handicapped you can enjoy a happy relationship.
I would recommend it to everybody, because most people are not familiar with such a situation or are afraid being confronted with such an important issue

The duality between accepting both his disability and the expression of his love in public was brilliant

Reviewed in Canada on October 4, 2014

Verified Purchase

The movie was exceptional. The duality between accepting both his disability and the expression of his love in public was brilliant. The emotional toll his accident had on him had far reaching influence both with is personal relationships, and his relationship with his past self. Letting go sometimes requires bravery and faith, but sometimes doing so opens new doors of opportunity to redefine oneself.

A really enjoyable gay movie, too bad it's out-of-print, and so hard to find!

Die Charaktere schaffen es leider nicht, ihre Gefühle zu mir als Zuschauer zu transportieren und mir die Geschichte glaubhaft rüberzubringen. Trotzdem ist das Thema ansich gut umgesetzt und es zeigt, dass auch nach schweren Unfällen das Leben noch lebenswert sein kann.
