Summary: Powerful
Comment: I find it hard to believe that anyone could watch this movie and not be moved by this powerful story. The heartbreaking part of it being that it's based off true events. Brandon was clearly suffering from some identity issues and she had run into some close calls before hooking up with this group of *friends*. Hilary Swank definitely earned her Oscar with this production. Great movie.

Summary: 5 stars, but...
Comment: I watched this movie quite awhile ago on cable, and literally found it to be one of the saddest movies I've ever watched. It made me want to cry. It shows how cruel and closed minded people can be in this world, and through all this, there is definitely not a happy ending. I would say that this is a good movie, but I wouldn't like to watch it again.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Female actors.
Comment: Hillary Swank is such a fine actress. I would go to see anything she was in. This, along with "Million Dollar Baby" are her finest performances. She has made many other movies, all worth seeing. This movie is so penetrating. A gut wrenching ending. What more can I say?

Summary: The Best Movie Ever
Comment: Ok this movie is just so good, I've seen it probably 10 times and counting, I love it, and Chloe is so beautiful. Sad movie but terrific.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Watchability
Comment: I think Hilary Swank did an excellent job with this role. But, in my opinion, the movie seemed to be thrown together. I had heard it was a good movie and it got a B, but it didn't make a whole lot of sense. Perhaps if didn't feel so rushed, it would have been better.

A true story about hope, fear, and the courage it takes to be yourself, "Boys Don't Cry" is "One of the 10 best films of 1999" (National Board of Review). Critically acclaimed and nominated for two Golden Globe Awards, this four-star, "must-see" (People), "riveting" (Enterainment Weekly) drama features incredible performances by newcomers Hilary Swank and Chloe Sevigny.
