Watch Cupcakes For Free

To me, this movie is perfection.

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

When the cast 'finally' do the song at the very end, it made me even more irritated at the whole thing, they sounded beautiful together, and only did one lousy song.The rest of the movie was involving itself with acceptance on various issues, I guess the song was supposed to be something that makes all of us feel good about alternative lifestyles snd different ways of thinking, BUT I was watching the movie for real music and singing, it did not deliver on this.A whole movie and one song, U would think they would have gone through the effort to do a couple moreA real waste of real talent and frustrating for someone looking for a real musical movie

My interest in this film came out of Eytan Fox's previous work. Walk On Water is one of my favorite films, and all of his previous films have been serious and gay-positive. A friend saw it at a local festival last year, and recommended it.I just caught it on Netflix and as I watched it, my smile grew larger and larger. Clichés are in place, as a broad mix of people come together to put on a "Eurovision" type show. This gives another perspective to life in Israel.It probably lost something in the translation to subtitles, but ultimately the narrator's reflections on life take a back seat to the old "let's put on a show" plot line. There are many serious moments, as when the parents of one of the gay couple say they accept the relationship, but discretion is required. Each of the six participants has a back story, not always clear (subtitles?) but it's a comedy and corny as it may be, we have a happy ending.

Six lonely people find fulfillment thanks to an international song fest in Paris. Six lonely, comfortable middle class Israeli--5 woman and a gay man--are yearning for meaning in life.A commonplace them in film, to say the least. There's enough sugar to give us diabetes, Yet, as a comedy it sends up a smugness in today's Israel: complacent, empty with creature comforts that don't much to assuage existential angst nor ennui. Cupcakes blankets today's Israeli reality of inflation, tight housing, endless war against Palestinians, yet gay tolerant and colorblind. The music is a saving grace as the narrative is hiccuped along with past winners of Eurovision songs. The Israeli entry is a mirror reflection of an illness of the country's soul that tries to put an emoji on a sad reality.

This film tells the story of a cheerful and flamboyant man who signs his female best friends up for an international song contest, without their knowledge."Cupcakes" is a fun and bubbly film that makes viewers laugh. The way the lead character's relationship as to be hidden is a stark contrast to their personalities, which makes it interesting. The female best friends are fun as well, especially the politician who decides to risk it and take part in the song contest. The rehearsals are fun to watch, and of course the finale - the contest is great as well. The scene where the parents offer a deal with the couple provides an emotional subplot to balance all the general cheerfulness, but fortunately the deal is not so bad that would make it offensive or too difficult for the couple to choose. After all, Israel is a progressive country!
