UNICORNS is a breathtaking exploration of identity and connection, beautifully woven through the lives of its diverse characters. Set against the backdrop of a vibrant South Asian nightclub scene, the film delicately navigates the complexities of self-discovery and acceptance. The performances are mesmerizing, drawing you into the emotional journeys of the main characters. Their unlikely encounter sparks a profound exploration of their own identities and desires, creating a narrative that is both tender and powerful. The cinematography captures the energy and intimacy of their world, enhancing every heartfelt moment. UNICORNS is not just a film; it's a celebration of authenticity and the courage to embrace one's true self. A masterpiece that lingers in your thoughts long after the credits roll.

The movie "Unicorns" is the love story between two people of the same gender. The leads of Ben Hardy as Luke and Jason Patel as Aysha, is not a bad choice of casting from the casting crew. Though the movie falls short in story telling and eventually just falls down to almost a flatline. The plot is nothing out of the ordinary. Yeah sure, it's about a guy falling in love with a girl, who (surprise surprise) ain't a girl but actually a dude dressed as a girl. But it's more about what the movie tries to tell about the modern norms about genders and the whole LGBTQ community as a whole. The movie does though only focus about the "drag-queen" part of the community. So for what it tries to tell it gets a thumbs up from me... But the movie does feel a bit predictable after the first act. From what goes about the acting and characters in the movie is something else. I personally think that Jason Patel, who plays the main "drag-queen" Aysha, did do a great job in this movie. The same goes for Ben Hardy, but not to the same levels I've seen him in a movie like "Bohemian Rhapsody". The side characters aren't really in the picture hence they don't really make a big performance enough, they are just there... Cinematography was pretty good with some very good shots of wilderness and inside the different scenes. The same goes with the music chosen for the different scenes that just matches the setting that we are watching. Apart from all this... The degrading in rating is mostly based on the plot going a bit downhill after the first act. Therefore I give "Unicorns" a respectable rating of 6/10.

I believe that this film holds very little value, what I believe it attempts to do by lacking in being entertaining and having beautiful shots, is to attempt to teach important lessons on how you should decide to live your life and morals. However I believe it is not good at this at all and it attempts to make these nice slow motion scenes and shots of clubs, however it comes of as being lazy and poor and isn't entertaining nor does it hold any actual value. The plot line is enticing with the protagonist eventually falling in love with the performer and they eventually let go and decide to be with each-other despite all the pressures that society places on them, like family expectations, LGBT discrimination, religion and general fear of discrimination. However I believe that this potentially teaches very bad morals saying that you should let go of all responsibilities you hold and instead lust after a selfish goal of being with someone, that has the possibility of failing as can be seen by the fact he has obviously had intimacy in the past but has lost it and cannot remain truly faithful.

Unicorns is a very authentic feeling queer love story that delivers two compelling lead characters with some great performances behind them. The story carries a few surprises but for the most part is quite understated and poignant. What I really like is that it doesn't try to over complicate or explain things about sexuality. It just focuses on the characters and their relationship and it makes the queer element of it feel quite authentic and real. There aren't too many bells or whistles to the film making, and it does feel a bit long for what it is. Those are minor criticisms though of what is an otherwise very poignant and intriguing film.

Luke is a mid-20s white man in London, divorced, with custody of his 5-year-old son, working as a mechanic in his father's garage. One night, he stumbles upon a south Asian nightclub, meets alluring woman Aysha, and they kiss, before he realizes that "she" is a drag queen. Aysha feels an interest in Luke, and also needs a driver to drive her to various gayasian events where she performs. She tracks down Luke, and he agrees to the job because he needs the money. However, this develops into at least a friendship, as they do other things together, like sing karaoke. So here are two people who are divided by race, culture, religion (Aysha's family in Manchester is Moslem), sexual orientation, and gender identity. Can they overcome all these differences, and be each others' unicorns? I saw this at the world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, where the director said he was inspired by an out British Asian drag queen. He noted that South Asian drag was realistic rather than glamorous, and a certain number of the background characters were actual drag queens in their customary attire.

"Luke" (Ben Hardy) stumbles upon a bar where the largely young and beautiful Asian clientele are enjoying a dazzling performance on stage from "Aysha" (Jason Patel). Despite the fact that he's only just got laid in a field, he's captivated by her and so when she comes to say hello after her routine, he is quite besotted. Thing is - well those Adam's Apples - they are a dead giveaway and "Luke" flees in polite terror, but terror nonetheless. This leaves "Aysha" with a problem, though, as her possessive pal "Faiz" (Sagar Radia) goes off in a strop leaving her without a lift to a lucrative gig in Birmingham. She was also a bit smitten by "Luke" so tracks him down to the garage he works in with his father, and offers him £200 to be her chauffeur. Reluctant, he remembers that he has promised is son "Jamie" (Taylor Sullivan) a trip to Disneyland, and that's not going to pay for itself. The journey isn't really that far, but when a few other drag queens cadge a lift, too - well, let's just say that "Luke" gets a look at a culture he's never experienced before. The plot itself is fairly predictable, not dissimilar to "Femme" from last year, but there's a fun degree of chemistry between Hardy and Patel that maybe a little too simplistically, but still entertainingly, both challenges and reinforces stereotypes. What's eminently clear is that "Ashiq" is an unhappy and unfulfilled man who comes alive when his alter ego takes over, but is there any future at all in a friendship quite so viscerally at odds. It's tightly cast, and works best when it's just the two lead actors engagingly messing about, getting to know and trust each other and, well... who knows? To be fair, it doesn't need a cinema screening but it is an amiable, occasionally bitchy, film and I quite enjoyed it.
