Get Real (1998)
7/10
A good movie of bravery but didn't have a good ending

I have to say Steven's speech was the most outstanding speech I've ever heard about being gay at school. I swear, it just makes you teary because young people still these day think negative of their sexuality. Yes there are homo phobics everywhere, but people should only think of themselves and not worry about what they think.

I was very disappointed in John for not being open to himself and that he took his so-called friends side but not Steve's side. Steven was so good to him and honestly, any man would have him as his boyfriend. John let him down completely and thats why I think the ending didn't have a good happy ending. I wish Steven would report the bullies to the principal as they made his life hell and his relationship even more worse. I then thought the father didn't want to help at all. He just made a fuss on his son's choice of love. At least the mother had common sense.

I loved Linda, she's like the friend you seriously want to pal around with. Yes she is cheeky, however she will always be on your side. She would really put a smile on your face and she was so good to Steven even if she didn't want to. She was better off not dating her driving instructor since he didn't have a cope on. At least Steven and herself had each other when they need a shoulder to cry on!

Good movie but try not to be disappointed that Steven and John aren't rekindling their relationship.
