Hunnam. Kunqabile ukubona ubunzima, imiba ephikisayo iphononongwa kwifilimu ebalisayo yangoku, kwaye Uluhlu, Ibhalwe yayalelwa ngu-Matthew Chapman, ayinaloyiko malunga nengozi yokusilela kwezorhwebo ngokucacileyo ejongene nayo. Ngexesha apho uninzi lweemovie zingabalulekanga malunga nayo nayiphi na into ebalulekileyo, le ifanelwe yityala lokujongana nemixholo engathandekiyo njengenkolo ekhuthaza abantu abathandana nabantu abathandanayo kunye nokungakholelwa kuThixo. Ekugqibeleni iyasilela, hayi ngenxa yeengcinga zayo zentanda-bulumko, kodwa ngenxa yokuba yazisa uninzi lwazo ngaxeshanye kangangokuba nombukeli onepali akakwazi ukuqhubeka.
Umfana okhathazekileyo ogama linguGavin (umdlali wase-Bhritane uCharlie Hunnam, okhokele kwimveliso yokuqala kamabonakude yesiNgesi UQueer njengoNtsapho ) phuma kwinqanaba eliphezulu lesakhiwo eside ukuba uzibulale. Ipolisa eligama linguHollis (Terrence Howard) lithunyelwe ukuba liye kuthetha naye. Olu ayilo suku olulungileyo kubo bobabini. UGavin ngumphathi wehotele ongonwabanga nomqeshwa wehotele okhathazekileyo kunye nomphathi omkhulu we-accounting ogama linguShana (uLiv Tyler, mde kakhulu kwizinyo ukuba abe sisidanga sokuqala esikholisayo). U-Hollis ngumyeni ongumKatolika ozinikeleyo nothembekileyo osandula ukufumanisa ukuba akanabudlolo kwasekuzalweni kwaye ngequbuliso uyaqonda ukuba abantwana bakhe ababini abangabo. UGavin unendawo ahlala kuyo noGawulayo, nto leyo ebophelela umboniso bhanya-bhanya nomnye umcimbi onzima ekufuneka ewucingile, kwaye uShana ukwanguye nomyeni ongumKristu ozelwe ngokutsha ozinikeleyo ogama linguJoe (Patrick Wilson) obangela iingxaki kubo bonke.
Umhla wokugqibela kaGavin. Ukuba akatsiba nge-12 emini, omnye umntu uzakufa, ngenxa yezizathu ezingatyhilwanga kude kube sekupheleni. Kwimiba yokholo, ipolisa libuza indoda engqameko, unayo? Oku kunika umntu omhlophe ongena themba kwaye ophoxekileyo kodwa umntu omnyama ngokomoya onokusinda ekuthetheni uthetha ixesha elininzi lokungqonga ngeembono ezininzi malunga nokufa, ukukrexeza, inkululeko yabambalwa, amalungelo esini kunye nokungathembani okufunyanwa luluntu ngokubanzi. Njengamaqabane kwinqanaba, uMnu. Hunnam ophikisanayo noGavin kunye noHoward's Hollis abaphazamisayo babonakala bethembekile kunabanye abalinganiswa kumdlalo bhanyabhanya abadityanisiweyo. Babenokurhweba ngokulula kwiindawo.
Kuba kungekho namnye unako ukushiya indawo, amabali abo ayadibana nokubuyela umva. Sibona uShana noJoe bemema abamelwane babo abatsha, uGavin kunye nogxa wakhe athandana naye uChris, kwisidlo sangokuhlwa, bebaphazamisa ngabathandi. UGavin uqhankqalaza xa uJoe ebhekisa kwindawo ethile eBhayibhileni ebagweba esihogweni, emva koko athi makathandazele izono zabo. Kukuqhekeka okukhula nzulu xa uGavin ethandana no Shana ocinezelweyo, ongonelisekanga ngokwesondo kodwa onembopheleleko kuJoe ngokunyanga iziyobisi. UGavin ukhohlisiwe nguSanta Claus, iFooth Fairy kunye nokusweleka kwentombi. UThixo ungomnye nje umhlobo wentelekelelo. KuGavin, uThixo udala iimfazwe, ukubulawa kwabantu, iinyikima kunye nezifo. KuJoe, ubuhle bosindiso lwanaphakade kukuba uThixo unika ubomi intsingiselo. Yonke le nto ijika ibe yingxoxo-mpikiswano phakathi kokholo oluyimfama kunye nokusilela ukwamkela izulu njengombono osemthethweni ngaphandle kobungqina obuncinci. Izimvo ezilungileyo, ukuqiniseka, ngemovie engcono, kodwa abalinganiswa I-Ledge Zikhona kuphela ngenjongo yokuphikisana, kwaye iskripthi sincinci kakhulu ukuba singabandakanya umbukeli ngaphandle kwemeko.
Akukho baphangi, kodwa intetho yonke ikhokelela kwimpikiswano engenakuphepheka phakathi kukaJoe noGavin, uJoe noShana, uGavin noHollis, kunye noJoe befunda iNdumiso yama-23 ephethe umpu ophethe ngesandla. Nangona kungekho sethingi sichongiweyo, ifilimu yadutyulwa eBaton Rouge, eLa., Kunye nembono yomlambo ngasemva ngokucacileyo ludaka iMississippi. Umkhombandlela uyinto efunwa ngabadlali, bonke abadlali balungile ngaphandle kukaLiv Tyler, ojongeka emncinci njengoAva Gardner kunesiqhelo-mhlawumbi kuba ekhululwe konke ukwakheka kunye nedrab njengethambo. Kumaqela axhasayo, bendimthanda kakhulu uChristopher Gorham kwindima encinci kodwa ebaluleke kakhulu yegastro likaGavin elihlala naye e-gay. Umntu ongakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo wenza elona cala-mngeni kwingxoxo mpikiswano, kodwa unekratshi kakhulu kwaye uthanda ukuba yinkululeko yokwenyani, ngelixa umntu othanda ubungqongqo ebeka uhlobo lwemfundiso yomlilo nesulfure kunye nentiyo ephembelela inkolo emenza angabi nanceba kuphela 2011, kodwa naïve. Ukuphela kokurhoxiswa I-Ledge iziko lombuzo omnye: Ngaba uya kutsiba okanye hayi? Ekugqibeleni ufumanisa, kodwa akunakulunga ukulinda.
