Has anyone else seen this? Very intense. after looking into the topic after watching the film, I had no idea the government neglected researching AIDS for so long.

Anyways, it's a good watch. HOWEVER, the first 8 minutes are extremely explicit and graphic. after that it gets good

I'm just curious what people think of the movie

Thought it was really well acted and casted. And a pretty good look at how AIDS was treated initially. Definitely makes you wonder if the government wasn't so hung up on the aspect that it was occurring among gay men if early intervention could've saved several lives here in the US.

Yeah, I thought it was fantastic myself. I was really surprised at how good it was.

Let's not act like threads aren't duplicated on a regular basis

That thread was made pretty much the day it came out and didn't even go a page. I just stumbled across it being replayed on HBO tonight and was curious if there was a bigger consensus

eta and off-topic: watching 40-year-old-virgin on hbo right now and forgot how hilarious this shite is

Pretty in your face at times, but a good movie.

I thought the editing was all over the place and the hulk was yelling in every scene.

I liked it the first time HBO made it when it was called "and the band played on"
