The Third One Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
lovejoyradio A couple in a long term commitment engage a younger man to spice up their sex life with a threesome. The movie begins with extended scenes of the couple's initial courtship with the other man via web chat and webcam. Though the scenes are a realistic portrayal of dating in the internet age (through lengthy typed conversations and waiting with bated breath for any sign of life on the other side), they are drawn out and could have been edited to lighten the pace of the film.Despite the slow start, the remainder of the film is pleasurably paced as we watch them transcend initial awkwardness and intimacy grow through shared stories around the dinner table.The eventual love scene is intense and extremely erotic, and much more than another casual encounter via the internet. The interaction between the actors is extremely well done and realistic. See here for great example of movie sex scenes, add extra points for three parties!
jcsugarman The South Americans seem to have staked out very special territory in gay film: atmospheric and erotic - films that explore the many variations in homo-eroticism and sexuality and the lives of gay men with great subtlety. Much like my other favourites from Argentina (Hawaii, Plan B, Absent), Chile (In the Gray Scale), Urguguay (Leo's Room), Brazil (From Beginning to End), the pace here is slow and the story focuses on courtship and play as much as capture (or the potential of capture). What animates, inhibits, and satisfies gay sexuality is often the subject in these films and sometimes, as in this, it enacts those satisfactions.This is a beautiful and very sexy film (in its second half) about a young college student hooking up with an older couple, and it takes the viewer much deeper into the feelings, expectations and fears of all three characters and is touching as well as very realistic to me. But the filmmaker is also a bit too clever for dramatic good: the first 20-30 mins (much too long) consists of small, difficult to see screen shots of the characters meeting and teasing online in a chat room - it's best to skip forward after a few minutes of this to the arrival of Fede, the younger "third one", at the home of Hernán and Franco. The latter are two 30-something men who've been together for 8 years - obviously they've a loving relationship, but it's gone a bit flat, esp sexually it seems. This is all marvelously (but very slowly) revealed in conversation at dinner before the anticipated sex, as are many touching and dramatically useful details of Fede's life. The film is relatively short, just over an hour, but that's still at least 20 minutes more than is essential: I found myself going back to about 35-40 minutes into the film savour over again the dinner's verbal foreplay and the intimate sexual encounter at the heart of the film.This dinner conversation itself is marvelously well acted, as is the threesome that follows, the actors so full of pleasuring and delight once they've broken their reserve that I felt much of the same delight. The revelations, hesitations, and rapport that develop over dinner adds a distinctive depth, and eroticism, to the sex and the film overall. The actors' fine eye expressions, side- glances, hesitations, are all captured by the director.Technically, there is a period after the dinner scene where subtitles, set against a yellow background, become difficult to read for about 5 minutes - no big deal, but as with the excess of exposition at the beginning (and resolution at the very end) this and the film require a little patience (and/or finger on the remote). But that said, it's a very satisfying film on most every level.
Radu_A First off - this is NOT a semi-pornographic gay flick with shallow artificially blown up characters. Instead, it's a straight forward, semi-documentary enactment of a student hoking up with a gay couple for a threesome. There is a very long sex scene for its brief runtime, but it doesn't reveal much. You will have to wait for it for 40 minutes of a very extended conversation scene which serves to break the ice. There is not much of a plot otherwise.So what makes this not as instantly forgettable as countless other gay dating flicks? For one – the characters look and act real. They are attractive but not overly so. They are in shape but have no six packs. Secondly, they are neither angels nor assholes. There is a little bit of drama and insecurity on behalf of the student, but he is not portrayed as a lost soul looking for sex to define his personality. The couple reveal that their relationship has lost a bit of zing after eight years, but they are committed to each other. And third, the three treat each other with interest and respect. All too often a threesome is portrayed as proof of moral duplicity or something seedy. But it is, as sex dates in general, often just another way to get to know people.So what makes this film quite nice to me is that there is no judgment or exploitation here, just a realistic description of this kind of situation. Of course, if you want something more racy or dramatic, this is not the right film for you.
sugarfreepeppermint This film won me over immediately, and put a smile on my face throughout. If you like Marco Berger movies, you will probably also like this one. Although this film is a bit more upbeat, there is more dialogue, and the Buenos Aires portrayed here is more affluent.There is Argentinian vernacular sex slang to titillate. We are treated to excellent acting performances. The storyline is captivating and flows exactly at the correct pace. It's comedy is refreshing (as it's far different to the typical WeHo queen bitch fest). Gentle emotions and recognizable insecurities take centre stage and are properly elaborated upon. The film features some steamy erotica as well (all done in good taste).It's a little gem of a feel good movie that puts the theme of a tender threesome between three men in a very original light.
