Movie Reviews of April's Shower
Movie Review: April's wet blanket
Summary: 1 Stars
I appreciate the effort. I really do. Especially from a woman filmmaker on a tight budget. I applaud the movie for that reason only. 1 star for effort!
But, honestly, aren't there any decent scripts and actors out there? Isn't there anyone willing to invest money in lesbian films? We are STARVED for anything half way decent, and will shell out some bucks on Amazon to get it. But I refuse to part with hard earned cash for something on par with the very bad "Bar Girls," which describes this movie to a T.
Unfortunately, this film gets one star from me because (a) it was completely unbelievable, (b) the pacing was terrible, (c) the acting was energetic, but not in the right places, and (d) I was bored.
A MUCH better low budget/made by women film is "Kissing Jessica Stein." Even "Go Fish" gets points for style (and 2 stars from me, although it DID have worse acting). Back to the drawing board! And don't ask for my money until you have something at "It's in the Water"-level or better.
Movie Review: One star because it did give a 0 option!

I am doing research on lesbian films. And so far I have been completely let down with only a few exceptions, the best exception so far is Saving Face, I will explain.
It has been my experience watching "lesbian" films that in some way, shape, or form a man is involved before woman proclaims her lesbianism or after, as in April Showers. I do not know ANY lesbian who would sleep with a man. Even in the highly proclaimed lesbian film Go Fish a "lesbian" sleeps with a man. Its a disgrace and an insult to imagine that any lesbian would sleep with a man.
I have nothing against men, I have several male friends. But this seems like a male propaganda in order to change the face of lesbianism into "just waiting for the man arrive."
What's worse, is that a woman film maker would even consider making a lesbian film where the lesbian sleeps with a man.
These films are shameful and should never be in teh same category as lesbian films. They should be with the bisexual films.
Movie Review: Not enjoyable
Summary: 1 Stars
The reviews here reveal that some people found pleasure in this film. Unfortunately, I do not find myself among them. I could not wait for it to end. I watched the whole thing only because I had paid to rent it, but it was mostly a painful experience.
No one is really connected to anyone in this film. Almost all the characters seem narcissistic and flippant. There are so many characters introduced who are carrying zany, personal issues, and we are supposed to care about these. But the reader has no motivation to care, due to the disorganized storyline.
The attempt to create a warm reunion of people who care about each other falls short. None of the characters has much heart, and there are even several face-slapping scenes! The only appealing character was the young nerdy woman, who appears briefly. Please, let us have more well-written films with appealing characters.
Movie Review: What a wate of my time
Summary: 1 Stars
Look, I'm used to movies like "Better than chocolate", "Listen", "Gia", Monster, series like "The L word", real good lesbian stuff. When I got this movie thinking it was a good lesbian drama, I was completly dissapointed. Boring, unrealistic, stupid... do not waste your time/money. The real lesbian of the movie ends up with a guy, and the main characters were so boring! oh god! I still regret I watched it. Hey, if you wanna see a lesbian movie that has never been properly discovered, buy "Listen", it's only a VHS version, but it's hot, great lesbian thriller... reminds me of Basic Instinct but better.Movie Review: This maybe the worst movie EVER!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I don't even know how I got through this movie. The characters are one-demensional, the plot is non-exsistant. I think this is what my grandmother used to call dreck!! Seriously, stay far, far away!!!
