This movie is rather unique in the sense that it's about one of the most taboo things to talk about, which is homophobic relationship. Jake Gyllenhaal, with his semi-feminine face, is a really a good match to his role here. On the other hand, Heath Ledger throws a good show with his complex psychic condition.
I have to give two thumbs up for these two guys who at some points willing to bare it all for the audience. Honestly, seeing two guys kissing each other is a bit disturbing but if you think this is for the sake of art, I believe you can bear with it.
I would've never expected Ang Lee, the director of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, able to give such an interesting story of unpopular topic like this one. This probably shows that human has soft side as well as hard side aka The Hulk.
Verdict :
Approach this movie as an art piece. If you feel bored and want to get away from typical comedy, drama and action movies, go and watch this one. I promise you'll feel refreshed. However make sure that you have the guts to watch the 'scenic' part of it otherwise you'll miss a lot.
