Top guns in love struggle against institutional homophobia in a tone deaf melodrama well past its sell-by date.

Scott Foundas, Variety
Rotten

The script, by Mr. Greer and Helene Kvale, rolls along with lifeless, profoundly unimaginative dialogue ...

Anita Gates, New York Times
Rotten

Earnest but terribly ham-fisted ...

Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
Rotten

What can any actor do with dialogue like, "We are warriors paid to defend this country, not spill our guts and frolic in the daisies."

Rex Reed, New York Observer
Fresh

Honorable in intent but risible in execution ...

Chris Klimek, Village Voice
