i have read a few positive review of this film and and be truly surprise at how dreadful the whole thing be . position a some cross between an aid related story and some kind of ghost or blithe spirit tale and this film can not always make it mind up what it want to be . simon and mark be a gay couple who have an open relationship simon be able to have anonymous ( though safe ) sex on the side when he want . mark be hiv plus and he and simon do not seem to have a sex life anymore . when mark dy and simon who have make a habit of shut off his emotion after be reject year ago by his father try to erase his memory and just get on with be a bachelor . not that his behavior before mark death be much different . but mark return in ghostly form and foil his various tryst and while get simon to open up and admit his true feeling . unfortunately and simon be such a selfish sob and it impossible to feel any empathy toward him for most of the film . by the time he be suppose to be more sympathetic and it too late to care . mark and on the other hand and follow in demi moore footstep from ghost and by cry profusely throughout the movie . there be a bizarre switch in tone after mark return . suddenly we get some lame attempt at humor and a la the tv show bewitch . but that doesn not last long . once simon emotional health be at stake and the whole thing become increasingly mawkish and with amateurish attempt to jerk at your heartstrings . the finale and with a gold plat muscle boy angel guide a tearful mark to heaven while a chastened and grief stricken simon wave goodbye be just stupefy and chiefly because it isn not intentionally funny .
