A Different Story Reviews
TV Guide
TV Guide Staff
Half of a really good film about a relationship between a gay man and a gay woman, the picture resorts to stereotypes at midpoint.
Variety
Variety Staff
Save for this severe script problem, director and performers have done admirable work.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The movie's use of their homosexuality is indeed exploitative, insensitive, and offensive in a variety of ways. Even worse, it is unconvincing.
Philadelphia Gay News
Larry Vitacco
Luckily, the overall quality, sincerity, fresh humor, and truth smooth the rough spots, making A Different Story worth seeing because it tries hard and (almost) makes it.
The Lesbian Tide
Bridget Overton
Touted as a different kind of love story, namely a romance between a lesbian and a gay man, the film is not that at all. It's the same old tired hetero romantic scenario with a twist.
United Press International
David Dugas
This brisk, off-center comedy could be the sleeper of the year.
Gay Community News (Boston)
John Cummings
A Different Story will not be a "significant" film. Aside from its offending nature, it is boring, and poorly done.
